WSJ: The Mystery Man Shadowing Kimberly Guilfoyle as She Pushes Deals Across Europe
Federal lobbying records show Aktor paid its lobbyist $160,000 through June as Guilfoyle urged Balkan officials to do business with the company.
- On Friday, The Wall Street Journal reported that U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle has repeatedly urged Balkan officials to partner with Greek construction firm Aktor, often attending meetings alongside the company's paid lobbyist.
- Federal lobbying records reveal Aktor paid lobbyist Christos Marafatsos $160,000 through June to build ties within the White House, State, and Energy departments, coinciding with his frequent presence at the ambassador's side.
- During a spring trip to Bulgaria, Guilfoyle arrived on a private jet provided by Aktor's CEO and urged officials to do business with the firm; foreign officials frequently mistook Marafatsos for her chief of staff.
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended Guilfoyle as an 'incredibly effective advocate for the President's agenda,' while former National Security Council official Robin Brooks called the ambassador's promotion of a foreign company 'absolutely problematic.'
- Marafatsos stated he is 'proud to champion commercial initiatives that advance U.S. interests,' while lawyers for Aktor claimed the company's involvement began before any contact with the ambassador occurred.
