@walterba, just because there were no Americans indicted doesn't mean there were no Americans involved. It's just a matter of how deep the investigation went and succeeded. I would find it hard to believe that not a single American was involved behind the scenes.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein issuing a statement that no Americans were involved means no Americans were involved;
Rosenstein answered, “There’s no allegation in this indictment that
any American had any knowledge. And the nature of the scheme was the defendants took extraordinary steps to
make it appear that they were ordinary American political activists,
even going so far as to base their activities on a virtual private
network here in the United States so, if anybody traced it back to that
first jump, they appeared to be Americans.”
“There is no allegation in the indictment of any effect on the outcome of the election,” he also said.

LOL, how does that work? Manafort and Gates were indicted for working with a Ukrainian political party that was virtually disbanded by the time Trump ran in 2016. So where's this collusion again?

But Flynn isn't being charged with any kind of collusion, neither is Trump Jr., Kushner, or Manafort. The simple reason for that is because there was no collusion. Flynn couldn't afford the long legal fight that Mueller's open-ended witch-hunt could bring to bear.
Nevertheless, as I explained in connection with George Papadopoulos
(who also pled guilty in Mueller’s investigation for lying to the FBI),
when a prosecutor has a cooperator who was an accomplice in a major
criminal scheme, the cooperator is made to plead guilty to the scheme.
This is critical because it proves the existence of the scheme. In his
guilty-plea allocution (the part of a plea proceeding in which the
defendant admits what he did that makes him guilty), the accomplice
explains the scheme and the actions taken by himself and his
co-conspirators to carry it out. This goes a long way toward proving the
case against all of the subjects of the investigation.
That is not happening in Flynn’s situation. Instead, like
Papadopoulos, he is being permitted to plead guilty to a mere process
crime. A breaking report from ABC News
indicates that Flynn is prepared to testify that Trump directed him to
make contact with the Russians — initially to lay the groundwork for
mutual efforts against ISIS in Syria. That, however, is exactly the sort
of thing the incoming national-security adviser is supposed to do in a
transition phase between administrations. If it were part of the basis
for a “collusion” case arising out of Russia’s election meddling, then
Flynn would not be pleading guilty to a process crime — he’d be pleading
guilty to an espionage conspiracy.

"Former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn pleaded guilty in December to lying to the FBI about conversations with Russia's ambassador."
The former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser pleaded guilty in October to making a false statement to the FBI after he lied about his interactions with foreign nationals, including two Russians, with ties to the Russian government.'

There is also Donald Trump Jr. who wanted to collude, along with Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort wanted to collude.
