Probably for a short while, but not surprising that he had some type of relationship with the KGB.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas was a KGB agent in 1983, according to Soviet-era documents examined by Israel’s Channel 1.

In an interview with Iranian Television, former Georgia congresswoman Cynthia McKinney claims that the American authorities killed JFK, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr. She is a classic example of a useful idiot who continues to witting or unwittingly push Cold War era covert influence themes:

The Soviets, through active measures, spent more money funding anti-war rallies during Vietnam than they did on direct support to their proxies there i.e. weaponized peace.
