The joke of a president in the USA White House is not shared by other countries, nor is there such LOOSE standards to carry out investigations.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky (click here) is calling on Ukrainians to refrain from interfering in the upcoming U.S. elections. The call comes after the U.S. intelligence community released a statement saying the Russian government is trying to help President Donald Trump win reelection, and that a Ukrainian member of Parliament is participating in that effort.
"It is never and under no circumstances unacceptable to interfere with another country's sovereign elections," Zelensky said in a statement posted on his Facebook page. "Once again, I assure our partners that Ukraine did not allow and will not allow itself to intervene in the future in the elections and thereby harm our trustworthy and sincere partnerships with the United States."...
There is a very serious conflict in Ukraine. The "idea" there was corruption with Hunter Biden was indulged by the current Ukraine government and it was found there was no corruption.
When Ukraine's new president received a phone call from Donald John Trump he was expecting a discussion about the military hardware. Instead, Trump PLAYED HIM to engage in corruption ITSELF by putting forward a FALSE charge against Hunter and/or Joe Biden. Trump was impeached successfully because of his corrupt actions while in office. Ukraine wants no more of this mess. It has an important place on the world stage and it is taking that seriously.
Ukraine was once the epicenter of the Soviet Union's nuclear program sitting on Europe's border as well as the Black Sea. For that reason alone, Putin is obsessed with exerting control in Ukraine. Ukraine no longer has any nuclear munitions or any nuclear capacity, except, for brilliant scientists that have a right to live their lives in peace.
Ukraine has long played an important, (click here) yet sometimes overlooked, role in the global security order. Today, the country appears to be on the front lines of a renewed great-power rivalry that many analysts say will dominate international relations in the decades ahead....
Ron Johnson has been involved in Republican engagement in digging up dirt about the Bidens. It is odd though. Johnson is retiring at the age of 62 from his seat in the year of 2022. Why would a person planning on retirement continue to hack away at a false path?

A national intelligence document released Friday (click here) by the Trump administration revealed Russia is using pro-Russia Ukrainian officials to slander presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, undermining a key pillar of U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson’s ongoing investigation into the former vice president.
Johnson, who is chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, has drawn criticism from Democrats and foreign policy experts for what they see as an attempt to smear Biden as he challenges Republican President Donald Trump.
And while the committee prepares to release an interim report on its findings next month, a nonpartisan watchdog has given Johnson, R-Oshkosh, failing marks for his committee’s workload for the second consecutive year....
This mess is entertaining by some, evidently. But, the REAL ISSUE is the fact there is still ongoing conflict in Ukraine with Russia. We know how a US president sees all this; he favors Russia. The REAL investigation that Johnson should be conducting is HOW DOES TRUMP'S FAVORITISM OF RUSSIA EFFECTS UKRAINE, NATO AND USA NATIONAL SECURITY? Best I can tell, Johnson isn't the least interested in ending the Ukraine conflict or punishing Russia for it.
When the REAL investigation comes forward, I might even be interested in it.
The death toll above is primarily according to the United Nations. The Euromaidan protests in Kiev began 21 November 2013 and ended 23 February 2014, a total of 110–123 protesters and 18 police officers were killed in street clashes in the Ukrainian capital. The protests resulted in a civil war currently backed by Russia. It also included an annexation attempt by Russia of Crimea. Those changes in the map of Ukraine are still under contention. There was nothing democratic about balloting held in regard to Crimea.
This conflict does not serve anyone in the entire world, except two men Putin and indirectly Trump.

KYIV -- Some 13,000 people have been killed, (click here) a quarter of them civilians, and as many as 30,000 wounded in the war in eastern Ukraine since it broke out in April 2014, the United Nations says.
The estimated toll includes more than 3,300 civilian deaths, the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) said in a document dated February 25 and provided to RFE/RL the same day.
It comes as the simmering conflict between Russia-backed separatists and government forces approaches its sixth year, with little progress toward the implementation of a Western-brokered cease-fire and political-settlement deal known as the Minsk Accords.
"OHCHR estimates the total number of conflict-related casualties in Ukraine...at 40,000-43,000" from April 14, 2014 to January 31, 2019, the statement said, including "12,800-13,000 killed."...
