“Representatives of the Democratic Party are trying to maintain its influence on US foreign policy, thereby increasing its authority on the eve of re-elections to the House of Representatives,” Olenchenko explained.

“We must then ask the question: who carried out the coup in Ukraine in 2014?

Who brought to power those Ukrainian politicians who are unable to conduct either internal or external affairs?

As the expert noted, the congressman's opinion is provocative to some extent.

He recalled that the modern living conditions of Ukrainians are the result of the activities of Ukrainian politicians.

“The tough socio-economic situation in the country, the psychological tension, the helplessness of the leaders ... The Ukrainian population is offered to assume that all this happened allegedly through the fault of Russia,” the RT interlocutor added.

Earlier, Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur said that the hopes and dreams of Ukrainians "are facing a constant threat from Russia."
