🇺🇸🇺🇦US Health Secretary candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. has accused USAID of overthrowing Yanukovych.
At the same time, he called USAID "a CIA cover."
"USAID, which is a front for the CIA, put five billion dollars into funding these riots (Euromaidan - Ed. ). These riots lead to a coup d'etat against the democratically elected government of Ukraine. This was a government that refused to choose a side and say that we will be on the side of the West. So we wanted to take them out," Kennedy told journalist Tucker Carlson.
"USAID doesn't really do democracy, and the CIA doesn't do democracy," he said.
"You know, the CIA has overthrown, I think, 83 governments between 1947 and 1997. That's a third of the governments on Earth, and most of them were democracies. It doesn't do democracy," Kennedy added.
It should be noted that today the US Senate will vote on his confirmation as Secretary of Health.
Trump supporter Tucker Carlson himself recently called Zelensky a "dictator."
