     Ukrainian Embassy in Washington in an effort to expose ties between   
   Trump, top campaign aide Paul Manafort and Russia, according to people   
   with direct knowledge of the situation.   
      
   The Ukrainian efforts had an impact in the race, helping to force   
   Manafort’s resignation and advancing the narrative that Trump’s campaign   
   was deeply connected to Ukraine’s foe to the east, Russia. But they were   
   far less concerted or centrally directed than Russia’s alleged hacking   
   and dissemination of Democratic emails.   
      
   Russia’s effort was personally directed by Russian President Vladimir   
   Putin, involved the country’s military and foreign intelligence   
   services, according to U.S. intelligence officials. They reportedly   
   briefed Trump last week on the possibility that Russian operatives might   
   have compromising information on the president-elect. And at a Senate   
   hearing last week on the hacking, Director of National Intelligence   
   James Clapper said “I don't think we've ever encountered a more   
   aggressive or direct campaign to interfere in our election process than   
   we've seen in this case.”
