And the NYT has
“The Spy War: How the C.I.A. Secretly Helps Ukraine Fight Putin
For more than a decade, the United States has nurtured a secret intelligence partnership with Ukraine that is now critical for both countries in countering Russia.”
A limited hangout?
For more than a decade? Try since the late 1940s. We spent several decades supporting OUN, and OUN-B. We were dropping supplies and men to help Bandera attack the Soviets. The german Nazi Gehlen organization helped with the Intel about Ukraine. All good doing the Cold War stuff. But the Cold War ended over 30 years ago and we kept supporting Ukrainian Nazis.
