Flamboyant publicist Rob Goldstone has finally found one kind of notoriety he doesnt like, after landing in the middle of a mushrooming international disagreement involving the Kremlin, the White House and a secret meeting more than a year ago.
Goldstone, a PR man for recording artists who set up the meeting between Donald Trump Jr. and a Russian attorney who promised clay on Hillary Clinton, reportedly fears for his own safety. The 57 -year-old British flack is globetrotting with his much-younger companion, and posting photos from around the world on social media to hide in plain sight, according to reports.
Photos posted online since the journey began last month in London haveshown them in Venice, Croatia, Montenegro and Greece. Goldstone is currently believed to be aboard a ship in the Mediterranean, with his lover and business partner David Wilson.
“If I were him, I'd never go back to New York and I'd surely never set foot in Russia again.”

He fears that if he turns up dead, it will be no accident, The Express reported, quoting a longtime colleague. Goldstones strategy, according to Geoff Baker, also a British publicist, is to avoid New York and Russia and let everyone know where he is all the time.
I believe the reason he's being so blatantly transparent about his whereabouts is that, if anything does happen to him – like a auto accident or being stabbed by a poison-tipped umbrella – everyone will know his death was no accident, ‘ Baker told the newspaper.
Bakers was referring to the infamous 1978 rubout of Georgi Markov, a Bulgarian dissenter who was stabbed in the thigh with a poisoned umbrella tip as he waited for a bus in London.
It was unclear who Goldstone believes could be out to kill him.
Goldstone, founder of Oui 2 Entertainment in New York, emailed Donald Trump Jr. on June 3, 2016, writing, the Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his( Emins) parent Aras this morning and in their session offered to provide the Trump campaign with some useful documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father.
A subsequent meeting, merely revealed to the public recently, has stoked fresh accusations the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to win the election.
If I were him, I'd never go back to New York and I'd surely never set foot in Russia again, Baker told The Express. Knowing him as I do, I think he'll end up back in Britain or, if he feels threatened, he'll ask for protection at the nearest British embassy.
The website of OUI 2 Entertainment, which according to the companys website, represents “some of the biggest music brands and amusement events in the country, is constructing no secret of its co-founders ties to the Trump Jr. tale. The company has posted a connection on its Facebook page that results viewers to a report on Goldstones Pivotal Role in the Donald Trump Jr. Scandal.
The Facebook page is replete with photos of Goldstone wearing silly hats, traveling, and posing with a variety of seemingly well-connected and attractive acquaintances. According to an acquaintance who spoke with the Daily Beast, Goldstone results a hard-partying, playboy-type lifestyle.
