+While a student at [[Harvard University]] the 1980's, Freeland participated in a university exchange program that brought her to live in [[Ukraine:Kiev]], [[Ukraine]] for a time.((Bilefsky, D.

+Descriptions of Freeland's activities in [[Russia]] and Ukraine seem to indicate she was performing foreign intelligence duties. She allegedly evaded interception from the KGB by sending material out of Ukraine via a diplomatic pouch at the Canadian embassy in [[Russia:Moscow]]. “I am aware that my work with pro-democracy and environmental activists invoked the ire of the Soviet KGB. I remember being the target of smear campaigns in the Soviet press,” she told the [[Globe and Mail]] in October 2021.((Miles, S. (2021, October 11). //KGB archives show how Chrystia Freeland drew the ire (and respect) of Soviet intelligence services.// The Globe and Mail. https://archive.ph/VnGts))
