Ben Freeman joined Scott on Antiwar Radio yesterday to discuss some analysis he recently published that looks at the Ukrainian Government’s lobbying efforts in Washington DC. Freeman combed over records and uncovered over 13,000 political activities that Ukraine reported carrying out in the U.S. during 2021. Among those activities were 2,000 contacts with American media and over 8,000 contacts with Congress. Freeman points out that, although he studies how foreign governments work to influence American politics, this effort by Ukraine is on a whole other level.
