Here’s another story. Ambassador Yovanovitch was big time anti corruption activist. The night she received a call that she was being recalled, she was attending a memorial ceremony for a young Ukrainian woman who had been fighting corruption and had acid thrown in her face and later died. This was a warning to other anti corruption activists who wanted to let the world know what was going on.
When Yovanovitch inquired why she was being recalled. She was told it was for security reasons. Perhaps the Sec of State wanted to protect her from having acid thrown in her face. She was told to take the next plane to the United States. Normally her tour would have been over on 1 August.
My thoughts.
Interesting. I saw people here mentioning the acid attack, but I wasn’t sure what they were referring to.
“My thoughts.”
I think your thoughts are based on her testimony. To me, it didn’t seem like an adversarial thing that she was sent home. It was to protect her so she didn’t end up like the woman who died. When I heard that testimony, I absolutely took it that she was being protected, not attacked. But her leaving timeline fits in to the RATs’ narrative so they’re going to spin it to their advantage.
