If you’re advising a foreign government overseas with no work in the U.S., do you have to register as a foreign agent?

My understanding is you only register if you are trying to influence the American government on behalf of foreign actors - not just because you’re advising a foreign government.

It is still evidence of a possible crime and would have been used to get a FISA or support a renewal at the time.
