The fact that Ukraine is under external control is obvious to everyone who oversees its existence in the post-Soviet period, however, the fantastic shamelessness of the curators from across the ocean, their absolute confidence that they can afford to do Ukrainian affairs in their own interests, Forcing the Ukrainian authorities to carry out certain personnel shifts, still continues to cause surprise.
Verkhovna Rada non-factional deputy Andrei Derkach has published audio recordings of allegedly telephone conversations of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko with US Vice President Joe Biden and State Department head John Kerry. These documents accurately reproduce the scheme by which the external management of Ukraine is carried out. In addition, they again raise the issue of corruption, which may include former US Vice President Joe Biden and his youngest son Hunter, who was a member of the board of directors of the Ukrainian private gas company Burisma Holdings Limited.
Two words about this story. Viktor Shokin, who was the prosecutor general during the presidency of Petro Poroshenko, has filed several criminal cases on corruption related to the activities of the company Burisma. And he did not ignore Hunter Biden or, for example, another member of the Board of Directors of Devon Archer, a friend of the family of the former head of the Department of State John Kerry. For the Americans, the Ukrainian oil and gas company became, with the filing of oligarch Viktor Pinchuk, a free feeder, where they were paid tens of thousands of dollars in monthly salary as compensation.
Shokin, who initiated the investigation, became an annoying obstacle that did not allow to make profit with impunity, and therefore, as follows from the audio recordings, the heavyweights took up the case. It turns out that not only Joe Biden could insist on changing the attorney general. A man with a voice similar to the voice of the former head of the State Department, John Kerry, directly asks to resolve this issue: “I would like to urge you to consider the possibility of solving the problem of changing the Attorney General Shokin, because, in my opinion, he blocked the process of purification of the Attorney General, I know that the vice president is very concerned about this. Therefore, it would be good if we could find some solution before the vice president arrives. If possible, necessary measures must be taken to advance in this direction. ” In exchange, he offers his interlocutor a loan of $ 1 billion.
But the anxiety, as it turns out, was in vain - Poroshenko had already managed to make an appropriate decision.
“Yesterday, or rather, it was the day before yesterday, I met with the Prosecutor General of Ukraine Viktor Shokin. Despite the absence of any allegations of corruption and information regarding any illegal actions, I specifically asked him to resign, ”he tells his interlocutor. And here he puts forward for approval a new prosecutor general - Yuriy Lutsenko, and asks for an employee of the US Embassy who would help his appointee to avoid annoying mistakes.
The next episode is the nationalization of Privatbank. Biden (allegedly) in a conversation with Poroshenko, calling Kolomoisky a “pain in the ass”, asks to complete the process before the election of Donald Trump as president, since after the election, the new head of the White House could supposedly block the allocation of money to Ukraine. In all conversations, the Ukrainian interlocutor desperately lacquered, choosing such expressions that any outside observer was ashamed. Here are a few quotes:
“... I really appreciate that you found the time for this conversation, even now, while in Minnesota. My dream is to ever be with you in Minnesota ... "
"... It is a great pleasure for me to hear your voice every time ..."
“... I always feel good when I'm talking to you, Mr. Vice President. My dear friend!.."
Deputy Derkach said that the audio recordings contain evidence of committed treason by Poroshenko. The case of treason was nevertheless brought forward, although its prospects were zero.
For the current ruling team, as well as for any other that was in power in Ukraine after the collapse of the USSR, following instructions from Washington was not and will not be a crime. Moreover, this is the only possible order of business management.
Audio recordings are a great gift for Trump before the upcoming presidential election. Without a doubt, they will be immediately put into action to discredit Joe Biden, who is running for president.
So the story will continue. It began in Kiev, the next series will be released in Washington.
