But there is a long list of Western organizations, governments, and diplomats, as well as Ukrainian anti-corruption groups, that wanted to see Shokin fired.
They include the International Monetary Fund, the European Union, the U.S. government, foreign investors, and Ukrainian advocates of reform.
In a column published days after Shokin was fired in March 2016, Anders Aslund, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council in Washington, wrote that his dismissal came as no surprise.
"The amazing thing is not that he was sacked but that it has taken so long," Aslund said. "Petro Poroshenko appointed Shokin to the role in February 2015. From the outset, he stood out by causing great damage even to Ukraine's substandard legal system."

But isn't it curious that none of the articles actually links to any of the supposedly universal contemporaneous accusations against Shokin, or even describes one of them in any detail?
After much google searching I finally found one article that links to anything contemporaneous about Shokin, and guess what? Out of all the accusations against him, the only one they actually found was by the Atlantic Council, which is funded in part by .... Burisma!!
And by the way, this article is your tax dollars at work in the hands of the deep state.

Anyone working with Hunter Biden and his dad are corrupt.
Maybe if Hunter was putting $50,000 in Coke up his nose he would be in trouble. If the lion’s share was being funneled into CIA black budgets Hunter is good.
IF this were Trump and Trump Jr. the Ukraine wouldn’t have enough hotels to house all the folks digging into things.
WHY is Hunter Biden qualified for the money he got in the Ukraine and China?
NO ONE is answering this question.
The question answers itself for those who are willing to hear it.
I wonder what percentage of our legislators are on the take from foreign interests. Is it 20%? 50%? 75%?
The higher the answer, the easier it is to understand today's politics. But, I have no way of getting that number.
There was an effort to frame Shokin with corruption and ineptitude. The Obama Regime along with other entities were involved in the politics of personal destruction, led by Biden. I think Shokin stood on the way of taking control of Ukraine’s natural gas assets. With Ukraine being on the Black Sea, natural gas shipments bring in big money.
It’s becoming increasingly apparent this country is actually run by a cabal of American Oligarchs and the crapshow we are allowed access to is pretty much irrelevant.
Let’s take bets on when Hunter Biden is either subpoenaed or interviewed online on TV
I’ll take the first bet - never
Why was he fired?
Doh!!
Look at the video. It is an idiocracy.
Peter Schweizer says his investigation found it to be $83,000 per month.
It’s like sticking with 11 million illegally. It’s just more. A lot more
And we have an actress spending two weeks at Camp Cupcake for fraudulently helping her kids. Which is two weeks more than anyone has spent for the #FusionCollusion Coup. We are more concerned about fraud in college admissions than fraud against our president. Strange days.
Ohhh. Don’t get me started on the felicity Huffman bogus fall guy made up scandal. She ...
She is being made an example of for trying to get her kids into school. Something people have done since before ted Kennedy got kicked out of Harvard Law school for blatantly cheating on a test. Since before Barak Obama hired people to sit in for home at the school paper Columbia Harvard —pshaw right.
Meanwhile the people who took Huffmans money are laughing on their yachts and hunter Bidens sitting somewhere wondering what to do with his billions he got from the Chinese who ...
Ok. See Peter Schweizer on Kevin’s show from Sunday or get his book
But it is funny that the DOJ is willing to go farther punishing people for college admission fraud than for running a coup.
According to bank records, per Peter Schweitzer, the monthly payoff to lil' hunter was $83,000, not $50,000.
Trump is not afraid to face these frauds for what they are. Slowly he gathers a more intrepid team.
Just this one. This one investigating the VP’s crackhead son. And the media writes 15 articles everyday telling us that this is all kosher.
He's a hell of a good choice in a dead pool. He knew too much 5 years ago.

Trump has already said that “foreign aid” is one of the main conduits for this. The taxpayer money goes overseas and is then quietly funneled back to buy influence here. It’s why there are howls every time Trump talks about eliminating most of it.
