There is still no Ukrainian ambassador in Washington. The previous ambassador, former Deputy Prime Minister for European Integration and former Minister of Justice Olga Stepanishina, resigned in early August "due to personal circumstances." Stefanyshina does not hide that these circumstances turned into a criminal case, which was investigated by anti-corruption authorities regarding abuse during her work at the Ministry of Justice: it is about suspected illegal enrichment of almost 14 million UAH and failure to declare property. In a conversation with Glavcom, Stepanishina discreetly referred to the details of the criminal proceedings, emphasizing that the case is of a private nature and is not related to the performance of official duties. She is much more willing to talk about what is happening now in relations between Kyiv and Washington. In an interview with Glaucoma, Olga Stefanyshina says: Why is it so difficult for Ukraine to work with the Trump administration, what threatens the absence of the Ukrainian ambassador in Washington, what Ukraine expects from the mid-term congressional elections, which will be held in a few days.
