[Grizz]

"The United States of America and the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as


"the Parties"),


Striving to broaden and deepen American-Russian cooperation to prevent and fight


against crime, and


Reaffirming their determination to enhance legal assistance in criminal matters,


Have agreed as follows:

"1. The Parties shall provide to each other, in accordance with this Treaty,


comprehensive mutual legal assistance in criminal matters.


2. For the purposes of this Treaty, legal assistance in criminal matters shall mean any


assistance provided by the Parties in connection with: prevention, suppression, and


investigation of crimes; criminal prosecutions; and other proceedings related to such


criminal matters.


3. Legal assistance shall be provided in accordance with the provisions of this Treaty


where the conduct that is the subject of the request constitutes a crime under the laws of


both Parties. The Requested Party may, in its discretion, also provide legal assistance


where the conduct that is the subject of the request would not constitute a crime under


the laws of the Requested Party.

So by "Law" IF the Russians HAVE her emails they are OBLIGATED to provide them to the pertinent parties.
I love the irony, it's a Clinton Treaty.
