The Trump campaign illegally siphoned money donated to the charitable Trump Foundation to be used in his Presidential campaign.
From the report...
"In her seven-page ruling, New York Supreme Court Justice Salliann Scarpulla wrote, "Mr. Trump’s fiduciary duty breaches included allowing his campaign to orchestrate the Fundraiser, allowing his campaign, instead of the Foundation, to direct distribution of the Funds, and using the Fundraiser and distribution of the Funds to further Mr. Trump’s political campaign."
"The judge was referring to a Jan. 28, 2016, event Trump held in Des Moines, Iowa, that he'd billed as a fundraiser for veterans. The event was counter-programming for a GOP presidential debate on Fox. Trump was feuding with the network at the time."
A fundraiser for Vets, and the money was hijacked for the campaign. Furthermore...
"In addition to the $2 million, court documents show Trump also agreed to repay the foundation the $11,525 in foundation money the billionaire used to pay for two auction items at Susan G. Komen charitable benefit in 2012. Those items were a Denver Broncos helmet signed by then-quarterback Tim Tebow and a Tebow jersey."
And no foreign governments had to be involved.
