Obama Counsel
Manafort was involved in recruiting Skadden to prepare the report on
behalf of Ukraine, according to documents reviewed by Bloomberg News.
The Skadden team was headed by Gregory Craig, a partner who had worked
as President Barack Obama’s White House counsel from 2009 to 2010 and
for President Bill Clinton during his impeachment.
Craig couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.
Manafort and Gates are accused of failing to register as agents in the
U.S. for political consulting they did in Ukraine for pro-Russian
politicians. Manafort is accused of laundering money to buy houses,
cars, clothes and landscaping services. Both men have pleaded not guilty.
The indictment also alleges that offshore accounts associated with
Manafort and Gates paid more than $2 million between 2012 and 2014 to
two companies that lobbied members of Congress and their staffs about
Ukraine sanctions and “the propriety of imprisoning his presidential rival.”
The case is U.S. v. van der Zwaan, 18-cr-31, U.S. District Court,
District of Columbia (Washington).
