In fact, the lack of discernment among adult high officials, men, officers, Heroes of Ukraine never ceases to astonish me. The newly appointed Minister of Defense has already hugged MP Kovalov. As acting head of the SBU, Khmara could not have been unaware of Kovalov’s checkered biography, in particular that he transported Berkut members from Maidan to the Russians so they could avoid responsibility. This was the Kyiv “Berkut,” the “Black Company” — a unit involved in shooting protesters. Many other unclear Russian-related stories are also connected to Kovalov.
Moreover, having served six months in the highest post at the SBU, Khmara was perfectly fine with Kovalov still being a member of the Verkhovna Rada defense committee (!) and having full access to state secrets.
After reading a post by Kovalov himself, I was even surprised to learn that they “have known each other for more than one year.”
That’s the situation.
