A US Senate aide who provided Kiev’s troops with sniper gear and traveled to front lines clad in camouflage and Ukrainian insignia may be guilty of failing to register as a foreign agent, according to reports in US media.
Kyle Parker, a senior advisor to the US Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) is currently under investigation for multiple trips to Ukraine since 2022 during which he sent some $30,000 in military equipment to Ukrainian troops. Parker has also been accused of enabling corruption by hiring a contact in Ukraine to a CSCE fellowship position against the advice of ethics officials.
“Mr. Parker’s unofficial travel and media promoting himself as a foreign military interlocutor raise further legal and ethical concerns amid reported Ukrainian military corruption,” read a report from the CSCE director that was shared with US media.
The report suggests Parker was “wittingly or unwittingly being targeted and exploited by a foreign intelligence service” and urges the case’s referral to the FBI.
CSCE chairman Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) has called for Parker to be fired over national security concerns raised by the report, claiming the aide is guilty of “serious alleged improper acts involving Ukrainian and other foreign individuals.”
“I urgently recommend you secure his immediate resignation or termination,” Wilson wrote to CSCE co-chair Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD) last year.
Parker has claimed he’s being retaliated against for exposing wrongdoing by CSCE officials.
Parker is considered a prominent anti-Russia force in Washington. He is known for his advocacy of the Magnitsky Act, a 2012 law intended to sanction foreign individuals for alleged “human rights abuses.” Moscow has strongly criticized the legislation while challenging accusations lodged against Russian officials.
The New York Times, typically seen as a mouthpiece for the pro-war US foreign policy establishment, lamented the investigation’s potential to disrupt the operation of the pro-Ukraine CSCE. The newspaper characterized Kiev as ”desperate” for US weapons and funding, sneering at Republicans in Congress who have blocked aid packages.

Reporting published by The New York Times over the weekend revealed the depth of the US Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) decade-long interference in Ukraine. The secretive intelligence agency has maintained a significant presence in the country for about a decade, going back to the 2014 US-backed Euromaidan color revolution, it was revealed.
