Former U.S. Sen. Bob Dole, a senior counsel at Alston & Bird and onetime Republican nominee for president, is registering as a “foreign agent” for Armenia in connection with plans to assist the country ahead of strategic talks with the U.S., according to a disclosure filed with the U.S. Justice Department.

Dole’s firm revealed its work for Armenia in a disclosure submitted this week under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, a more than 80-year-old law designed to shine a light on lobbying and other political activities for overseas powers. Decades after its passage, the law returned to prominence during Special Counsel Robert Mueller III’s investigation, which served to put lawyers and lobbyists on alert about the need to reveal influence work for foreign interests.
