Summary:
An embarassing phone conversation about Ukraine politics between two high profile US diplomats has surfaced online.
The audio clip of a woman and man is purportedly between US Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and US Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt.
The two people are heard discussing strategies to work with the three main opposition figures. She is heard telling him that she doesn’t think boxer-turned-politician Vitaly Klitschko should be in a new government and also saying “f**k the EU.”
The date of the conversation was not specified but the events it describes appeared to have taken place in the last days of January.
It is not known who uploaded the audio clip and reports that it was the Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin have not been confirmed.
This episode will be embarassing for the US as President Barack Obama has denied the administration is manipulating the Ukrainian opposition.
