As I'd asked earlier, and you dodged, if removing Shokin wasn't US policy, wouldn't Obama and multiple people in the departments of State and Justice know about it and say something?

Both sides were frustrated, he said, but Biden “wasn’t moving on . . . he pressed each and every time for these reforms to be implemented. And that created friction in the relationship.” In the fall of 2015, U.S. officials begin targeting Shokin specifically. Victoria Nuland, the assistant secretary of state, said during congressional testimony in October 2015 that the prosecutor general’s office needed to clean up corruption including the “dirty personnel” in its own office. “He became a single point of failure,” Kahl, Biden’s national security adviser, said of Shokin. “We could keep pushing corruption cases, but unless there was a fundamental change at the top, things weren’t going to change.” Among the matters that had lain largely dormant under Shokin, according to U.S. officials and Ukrainian anti-corruption activists, was the earlier investigation into the former minister who owned Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company on whose board Hunter Biden served.
Doc Posted July 30 Posted July 30 9 hours ago, Scraps said: That is the way it works in the country. To convict somebody of a crime you have to have EVIDENCE. Does it work differently in Ukraine? Why wasn't he charged with corruption, much less convicted? Just getting fired is enough? That's some real tough policy.

Corruption is a serious offense in almost every country, especially one trying to shake their corrupt history and join NATO. That he wasn't even charged tells me all I need to know. 1

Your point is what exactly? It says Biden decided all of American policy in regards to Ukraine and he is the one pressuring to fire the guy investigating his son.

Since the constitution says the prez and VP can't be from the same states, Californian RFK said he's a NY resident. It appears the judge called him on his bs. Boo-hoo.
