Lev Parnas, one of the two associates of Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani, served as a translator for lawyers representing oligarch Dmytro Firtash. John Dowd, the lawyer representing Parnas and Fruman, confirmed to Reuters that Parnas had worked for Firtash's legal team as an interpreter. But Dowd also told the US Congress that both men worked for DiGenova and Toensing. He declined to respond to a request to clarify whether one or both of his clients worked for Firtash's legal team. An Austrian court in June cleared the way for his extradition to the United States, but Firtash’s legal team continues to fight it.
