Gov. Ron DeSantis is returning a political contribution he received from two Soviet-born businessmen who are accused of funneling foreign cash into U.S. elections to increase their influence and promote their business interests, a spokeswoman said Thursday.
Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, both South Florida residents, donated $50,000 to the Friends of Ron DeSantis political committee on June 21, 2018, through a company named Global Energy Producers.
The allegations regarding Global Energy Producers to the Governors affiliated political action committee in 2018 is troubling, Helen Ferré, a DeSantis spokeswoman, said in an email. Therefore, Governor DeSantis is directing the political action committee to return the money to the federal government.
