Kucinich had come under mounting political pressure after news reports revealed that the Association for Investment in Popular Action Committees was the parent organization to the pro-Assad Syrian Solidarity Movement.
Kucinich said he was unaware of the connection when he took the umbrella group’s money.
Kucinich initially omitted the speaking fee from his required financial disclosure filing. He wrote that was "unintentional."
He reiterated that the speech he delivered in London was about ways to find peace in Syria.
