“Whether Nuland met with Artyomenko or any other representative of the Right Sector to help with fundraising and support is unknown.”
“I have a feeling certain spy agencies would know...”
Like the FSB perhaps?
ITAR-TASS 5/16/2014
US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland has never met with members of the Right Sector ultra-nationalist group, and the US Administration does not provide any support for the group, Deputy Spokesperson for the US State Department Marie Harf told ITAR-TASS in an e-mail.
Earlier, the Russian media reported that representatives of the Right Sector came to Washington last month to negotiate financial help for the organization. On Wednesday, Russias Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov touched upon the subject in an interview to Bloomberg TV.
The other thing to which I wanted to get response from Washington was these reports about the secret visit of the Right Sector coordinator (Andriy) Artyomenko to Washington for alleged meetings with Victoria Nuland. And we want answers to these questions because it’s too serious to manipulate events in Europe across the Atlantic. It’s not a remote-control game. It’s very serious for us, Lavrov said.

This is the same Russian media that does stupid doctoring of photos like the following. The context is the Russian FM's previous claims of "English speakers" and Blackwater Mercenaries being spotted in Ukraine.
