William Bennett, who served as Secretary of Education under President Reagan, has registered as a foreign agent to represent Qatar's interests in the United States.
Bennett has signed a lucrative contract with Qatar's embassy in Washington, D.C., to support the country's education initiatives. This move comes as Qatar faces increased scrutiny over its influence in American higher education and lobbying efforts.
