| Gordon Sondland |
Gordon Sondland, who was US ambassador to the European Union under Donald Trump, registered as a representative of Ukraine’s cabinet and ministers on March 21.
His job is to meet with members of Congress, European Bank and top Ukrainian officials to secure funding for its war with Russia.
Sondland also will visit front-line Ukrainian troops to build support for the military, according to his Justice Dept. filing.
He does not have a formal contract for the advocacy work and he is working as a volunteer.
Sondland, who is founder and chairman of Provenance Hotels, famously testified against Trump during his first impeachment proceedings.
He claimed that Trump pressured Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate the Biden family’s business dealings in his country in return for a White House meeting.
After he refused to resign, Trump fired Sondland.
