Russia's Fingerprints Are All Over Trump's Ukraine Whistleblower Scandal
Elements of the bombshell whistleblower report outlining various aims pursued by the Trump administration with respect to Ukraine keep connecting back to Russia.
Several of the reported objectives of President Trump, his administration officials, and his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani would benefit the Kremlin, and not the United States or its national security. Namely, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky was urged to make a deal with Putin, pressured to play ball with respect to providing or manufacturing compromising materials about Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden, and essentially tasked with concocting the evidence to disprove the well-established fact that the Democratic National Committee server was hacked by Russian intelligence agents in 2016.
The unconscionable demand for Ukraine to make a deal with an invader which has annexed and occupied its territory and continues to fuel an armed conflict that has claimed more than 13,000 liveswould mean a surrender of Ukraines national interests for the benefit of the Kremlin. It would also lead to the lifting of sanctions against Russia for its aggression in Ukraine. Casting doubt on Russias involvement in the hack of the DNC server would potentially lead to the lifting sanctions against Russia for its election-meddling and other malign activities.
