Monsieur shipped arms to Bosnia and Croatia in the 1990s, which he reportedly later said was done with the approval of the CIA and French intelligence, according to a 2002 report by the Center for Public Integrity. The group stated that Monsieur was a participant in the Iran-contra affair, but his relations with Washington deteriorated after his work with Iran, for which he allegedly tried to procure uranium as well.
Morton declined to comment on the center’s findings.
