Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has appointed an American lawyer as a new adviser with a mandate to build relations with ethnic Ukrainians living in the United States and elsewhere.
Andrew Mac, who heads the Washington office of the Kyiv-based law firm Asters, was officially named to the position on November 5, according to a presidential decree.
In filings with the U.S. Justice Department’s Foreign Agent Registration Act unit, Mr. Mac said the appointment was for an indefinite period and he would not be paid for his services.
