blind us to other reactionary ideologies" and regretted providing a platform for this movement. The Uhuru Movement has been accused by state prosecutors of collaborating with alleged Russian foreign agent Aleksandr Viktorovich Ionov to sow social divisions in the United States. Members of the group have traveled to Saint Petersburg, Russia, to attend an anti-globalization conference, and the group has also acknowledged that it supports Russia in its ongoing war with Ukraine. On July 29, 2022, the Uhuru House in St. Petersburg, Florida, was raided by the FBI due to an indictment by a grand jury alleging a conspiracy between Ionov and the Uhuru movement to spread Russian disinformation under the guise of domestic political movements. An FBI Tampa Special agent said that "The facts and circumstances surrounding this indictment are some of the most egregious and blatant violations we've seen by the Russian government in order to destabilize and undermine trust in American Democracy." On December 23, 2022, the Uhuru Movement organized an "Emergency Mass Meeting: Hands Off Uhuru! Hands Off Africa!" via Zoom, stating that the APSP expected new attacks and indictments by the FBI and the Department of “Justice” (DOJ) "in early January 2023 and possibly sooner" for violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
