According to UNIAN, the current situation was discussed at a joint press conference of Priestayko with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Latvia Edgars Rinkevics in Kiev.
According to the minister, the least that Kiev would like is “to be drawn into the internal politics of the United States on the eve of their elections.”
According to Priestayko, Zelensky assured Trump that Ukraine considers interfering in the electoral processes in other countries “the biggest threat” and for its part does not allow such actions.
“It really hurts us. We are trying to explain that the investigations, which should be carried out by Burisma and other companies, should be conducted without government intervention. They must be fair, ”he stressed.
Earlier, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev noted the "unenviable position" of Zelensky, who was drawn into the internal political conflict between Democrats and Republicans of the United States.
On September 25, the White House published a transcript of a telephone conversation between Trump and Zelensky, during which the Ukrainian leader assured that the new prosecutor general of Ukraine would study the situation with the son of former US vice president Joe Biden.
Subsequently, President of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi called the transcript a reason for impeachment of the American leader.
