NY publicist says Manafort wanted to pay him for Ukraine work via offshore accounts

A prominent New York City publicist says Paul Manafort and Rick Gates approached him in 2012 and asked whether they could pay him for Ukraine lobbying work via offshore accounts and avoid registering as foreign agents with the DOJ.

The publicist's experience mirrored the accusations laid out in a newly unsealed indictment against Manafort and Gates issued by special counsel Robert Mueller's team last week.
