US Senator Bob Menendez and his wife Nadine Arslanian have pleaded not guilty to new obstruction of justice charges in their ongoing graft case. Last week, federal prosecutors in New York brought charges of obstruction of justice and conspiracy against the couple, raising the total number of charges in the alleged bribery scheme to 18. The charges accuse Menendez of using his position to benefit the Qatari government and a businessman in exchange for financial gain. Menendez, who has denied all charges, has faced previous accusations related to corruption and misuse of power. The senator, known for his anti-Turkey stance and close ties to the Greek and Armenian lobbies, has been under scrutiny for his actions influenced by foreign governments.
