WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Donald Trump's former close adviser Steve Bannon has agreed to testify to the U.S. congressional panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, according to media reports on Sunday, amid questions over the terms of his appearance.

His change of heart was reported by CNN, the New York Times and Washington Post ahead of a Jan. 18 trial for Bannon on two charges of criminal contempt of Congress for previously refusing to testify or provide documents.

They said Bannon's lawyer, Robert Costello, wrote to the House of Representatives committee to say Trump, the former president, would waive the claim of executive privilege which Bannon had cited in refusing to testify.

Trump has been chafing that none of his supporters have testified in his defense at the committee hearings which, separate from the trial, are focused on the attack by Trump supporters seeking to stop the certification in Congress of Trump's defeat by Joe Biden in the November 2020 election.
