In Plea Deal, Flynn Acknowledges Working for Turkish Government

"Along with admitting he lied to the FBI, Mr. Flynn acknowledged in court papers unsealed Friday that the Turkish government “provided supervision and direction over” a $530,000 consulting contract he had with a Turkish businessman last year.

For months, those involved in the effort denied the Turkish government played any role in hiring Mr. Flynn to promote Ankara’s interests in the U.S. by attacking the government’s main nemesis: a Muslim cleric living in the U.S. whom Turkey has accused of trying to overthrow President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

As part of that effort, Mr. Flynn wrote an opinion piece that appeared in The Hill newspaper and online on Election Day calling for Mr. Gulen’s extradition. The Flynn Intel Group also hired consultants, freelance journalists and public-relations firms to create a “60 Minutes”-style piece attacking Mr. Gulen. The film was never completed, and Mr. Flynn shelved the work before being named Mr. Trump’s first national security adviser.

In the fall of 2016, Mr. Flynn also met with top Turkish officials in New York to discuss the prospect of spiriting Mr. Gulen out of the U.S. to Turkey, according to people familiar with the meetings. "
