"Do you think Americans care about fucking Ukraine?" – Mike Pompeo
An investigation by Igor Greenwald
Welcome to Ukraine Confidential, your daily source for exclusive Ukraine news, analysis and commentary.
I’m a U.S. journalist and Ukraine native with an ear to the ground for political intrigue and economic developments in my homeland. I also have a unique perspective on the role Ukrainan corruption played in Trump’s rise and impeachment.
I was born in Kyiv into a Ukrainian Jewish family, emigrated at 12 to the U.S. and came back 17 years later to freelance for The Christian Science Monitor and The Economist, among other publications. I am the former editor in chief of The Kyiv Post, an English-language newspaper. Some of the young reporters I hired there are now among Ukraine’s leading journalists. I rely on sources in Ukraine, reports in Ukrainian media and social networks, my own experiences and an expert understanding of Ukrainian history and culture.
I’m a supporter of an independent, democratic and prosperous Ukraine and of those fighting for that dream.
