IANAL but a potential violation of 18 U.S. Code §953 and maybe even Section 612(a) of FARA too? Did he not even bother consulting an attorney before attempting to barter international "peace" deals? Edit: 18 U.S. Code §953 Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both. FARA 612(a) mandates that anyone acting on the behalf of or advocating for a foreign government must register with the feds. Michael Flynn had been nailed on this one.
