Ukraine continues its own investigation into the case of the "Derkach tapes," Prosecutor General Iryna Venediktova said.
"Now the investigation on the 'Derkach tapes' continues. And again, examinations: are the tapes edited, is it possible to identify the voices, all this is happening. The investigation continues, we are trying not to lose investigative opportunities. We are waiting for the results of the research," Venediktova said in interview with Savik Shuster, released on the YouTube channel.
She said that Ukrainian investigators will "come to their own conclusions," not focusing on the results of the investigation, released in the United States.
Answering a question about how serious responsibility for this may be with fifth president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, the prosecutor general said that she considers it more political corruption, not legal. "There are several articles that [...] were included in the qualification when they were submitted to the Unified Register of Pretrial Investigations. But still, my personal impression today is very evaluative [...]: if we talk about corruption, it will be political corruption," she said.
I read the article and still have no idea what this is about.
Tapes? This must be very old information.
WTH is this about? Educate the rest of us.
Thx.
During his time in office the Ukrainian President, Petro Poroshenko, had his secret service record conversations that he had with both Vice President Joe Biden and Secretary of State John Kerry. These were done for his own future protection and conclusively show that Biden only released a $1B loan to Ukraine after Poroshenko coerced Viktor Shokin, the prosecutor investigating Biden’s son Hunter, into resigning despite there being no evidence or charges of corruption against him.
The tapes were given to Ukrainian investigative reporters as part of the effort by Derkash to recover the large sums of money that Poroshenko and Burisma stole from the Ukrainian people.
Having heard the voices on the tapes there can be no reasonable doubt that the voice is that of Joe Biden. I’m not sure what “investigation” needs to be done other than to detect if the conversations were spliced together to change their meaning.
It appears from her resume that the special prosecutor is an honest person and not affiliated with the numerous Soros backed NGOs or other corrupt political activists in Ukraine. She will either get to the truth of Biden’s bribery or it will be yet another coverup like the two or three previous Ukraine prosecutors all performed.
An investigation! Just in time! That should only take a few weeks, no?
This has been going on for several years. I suspect they are slow walking so as not to be accused of meddling in the US election.
