Interesting Information
Giuliani has accused Yovanovitch and Kent, formerly the No. 2 ranking diplomat at the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, of trying to protect the Bidens from an investigation by Ukrainian prosecutors. Internal documents turned over to Congress showed that Yovanovitch had become the target of a “classic disinformation operation”.
Connolly said Kent testified that Giuliani relied on now-former Ukrainian prosecutor general Yuriy Lutsenko for information damaging to Yovanovitch, which was also shared with John Solomon, a former columnist for the Hill newspaper. Lutsenko wanted to get Yovanovitch out of the way, Connolly recalled Kent as saying, and persuaded Giuliani with disinformation that she would also be a problem. Giuliani then persuaded Trump, Connolly said of Kent’s testimony.
“As he said, the consequence was to undermine 28 years of our efforts to promote the rule of law by actually doing something corrupt ourselves.”
Giuliani had alleged earlier this year that Yovanovitch provided a “do not prosecute list” to Ukrainian officials to protect the Bidens and other allies. But Kent, according to the documents, told his colleagues that the list was phony, pointing to incorrect name spellings that longtime officials like Yovanovitch and himself would never have gotten wrong, he said.
“One key sign of it being fake is that most of the names are misspelled in English.” Kent, who is fluent in Russian and Ukrainian, said in one email to colleagues. Kent, according to the documents, suggested the department could counter the attack on Yovanovitch by “circling in red all the misspellings and grammar mistakes and reposting ” the list as the U.S. Embassy in Moscow had done in similar counterpropaganda campaigns.
