In 2014, Senator Chris Murphy bragged about the United States successfully overthrowing Ukraine's government:
"I think it was our role, including sanctions and threats of sanctions, that forced, in part, Yanukovych from office."
"We have not sat on the sidelines. We have been very much involved. Members of the Senate have been there. Members of the State Department have been on the Square."
"The Obama administration passed sanctions. The Senate was prepared to pass its own set of sanctions, and as I've said, I think that the clear position of the United States has, in part, been what has helped lead to this change in regime."
"If, ultimately, this is a peaceful transition to a new government in Ukraine, it will be the U.S. on the streets of Ukraine who will be seen as a great friend in helping make that transition happen."
"There is a U.S. interest here. We are in the middle of negotiating a new trade agreement with Europe. To my state, it's enormously important. We do 40% of our trade in Connecticut with Europe."
"If Ukraine is part of the EU and thus is part of this new trade agreement with the United States, that could result in billions of dollars in new economic opportunities for the U.S."
"So, we do have an economic interest in Ukraine being a part of the EU, and we shouldn't be shy about making that interest clear."
Trump plans to push through a peace deal, and warns against reluctance to make peace: "If someone doesn't want to make a deal, I think that person won't be around very long"
- Zelensky can be pushed out by challenging his legitimacy
- The Europeans will likely be offered to support Trump's peace deal, or the US cuts all support and dumps project Ukraine on the Europeans
I was arrested at Heathrow Airport under the Terrorism Act, Sec 12 because of my reporting.
6 police officers were waiting for me at the entrance of the aircraft.
I was held for almost 24 hours and questioned.
I believe I'm the first journalist to be arrested under this provision of the Terrorism Act.
I feel that this is a political persecution and hampers my ability to work as a journalist.
