I find it very interesting this report surfaces in the New York Times and not The Washington Post first. This material distinction showcases the motive for the outline is heavily domestic in nature; meaning, the core of domestic USA politics (specifically the White House) needs to admit that Ukraine is a proxy province in order to retrigger support for policy.
[Inside Baseball] – Watch the responses to this report from CNN (State Dept) carefully and watch the responses from WaPo (CIA/Intel). The more subtle and/or quiet the response(s), the more certain these influence institutions were collaborating on the material report to the New York Times.
The White House is admitting the CIA and larger IC apparatus, which includes the State Dept., has been heavily controlling all activity in Ukraine for the past decade. The only reason to admit this now very publicly is because they are losing voter support. THIS EXPLAINS WHY BIDEN IS CALLING FOR A WHITE HOUSE MEETING!!
The US’s Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) maintains 12 secret bases in Ukraine along the border with Russia, and last Thursday CIA chief William Burns made his 10th secret visit to Ukraine since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion.
The Times is now reporting the USA (State Dept.) was responsible for the coup in Ukraine (color revolution) and took control over political operations in 2014. We have long suspected this; many have reported exactly this reality; however, this is the first time it has all been admitted.
(NYT) – The C.I.A.’s partnership in Ukraine can be traced back to two phone calls on the night of Feb. 24, 2014, eight years to the day before Russia’s full-scale invasion.
Millions of Ukrainians had just overrun the country’s pro-Kremlin government and the president, Viktor Yanukovych, and his spy chiefs had fled to Russia. In the tumult, a fragile pro-Western government quickly took power.
The government’s new spy chief, Valentyn Nalyvaichenko, arrived at the headquarters of the domestic intelligence agency and found a pile of smoldering documents in the courtyard. Inside, many of the computers had been wiped or were infected with Russian malware.
“It was empty. No lights. No leadership. Nobody was there,” Mr. Nalyvaichenko said in an interview.
He went to an office and called the C.I.A. station chief and the local head of MI6. It was near midnight but he summoned them to the building, asked for help in rebuilding the agency from the ground up, and proposed a three-way partnership. “That’s how it all started,” Mr. Nalyvaichenko said.

The report tries to paint various Ukraine officials as the originators of the operation to use Ukraine as the tip of the spear against the Russia construct; however, it doesn’t take a deep weeds walker to realize that part of the narrative is needed to protect the U.S. foreign influence policy from public ridicule.
The White House needs support for their Ukraine proxy. The public opposition to that continued policy agenda is a problem. The politicians are caving to pressure from the people. The IC needs to change the narrative urgently; thus the admission takes place.
It a natural progression when you’re game is propaganda and misdirection. It’s just another play for $$$. Next up, the humanitarian grift.

200 interviews do not take place in a couple of days. The NYTimes has known this for weeks, minimum.
This is almost like they had the story on the shelf, just waiting for the time to hit PRINT.
The change began just before Iowa, and accelerated shortly after. President Trump will be in office again, so time to air out some skeletons.
We are losing this War. At least there is that.
It’s not our war to lose. It’s the Biden family interests (remember Burisma?) that are at risk.
Even better.
The man in the picture with Zelensky is not former Senator and Vice President Joe Biden. I’m not sure who it is, but it’s not the same person. Totally different shaped head. A good likeness, but not the same person.
Take your pic – there are only about 15 to 20 people who are “filling in” for the big guy. I personally think the real one is dead, but that’s just my opinion.
You are correct, he’s not Biden like Kim Jun double.
Good point MAGA. The head and face are different. Or they photoshopped the entire thing.
Yeah even Zelensky in the picture is wondering who the hell is next to him
d.c. needs to be a smoldering hole …
Whatever happened to the Ukranian bio-weapons labs? I haven’t heard any mention of them in quite some time …
Biolabs were featured prominently in the Russian report about the origins of Covid.
Don’t forget the 12 CIA Secret Bases.
The filthy basterds do hate We The People so very much
Apparently, the CIA considers itself a govt of its own
Since November 22, 1963.
“Millions of Ukrainians had just overrun the country’s pro-Kremlin government and the president, Viktor Yanukovych, and his spy chiefs had fled to Russia. In the tumult, a fragile pro-Western government quickly took power.”
Their way of saying that the usual suspects didn’t fund and organize the coup that took place in the days prior. All that they did was to help a new govt get up on its feet. Because – “democracy”.
Typical Slimes garbage.
thank you Sundance for shedding LIGHT on travesty around the world. Ukraine is a cesspool
and the child sex trafficking/harvesting no words can……. Blessings to you always
Nuland, Sullivan and Blinken….otherwise known as the three fraud amigos.
Oh my … the NYT is pretending to be rational … the UniParty must protect their Laundry Bu$ine$$ at any cost.
Read the piece, its a master work of puff for the CIA, even go back to Mhu Russia hacked the DNC Cozybear crap.
If we have a govt. shutdown, will the secret govt. people still eat dinner? US policy run amok, why even bother telling us amirite. Ukraine lost their war but these shipheads aren’t about to stop or change what they’re doing and the don’t care what the public has to say about the situation thus no avenue of input for the public to register concerns or dissent either at NYT or elsewhere. These people just about shat themselves when Tucker Carlson interviewed Putin, and apparently Ukraine even tried to have Carlson assassinated for doing so. I think Russia is rightly concerned and wise to prepare for the worst and assume they are on an eventual collision course with NATO/EU/US, only a matter of time.
Your analysis is good but read the NYT article straight through & you will see that it is carefully crafted propaganda spreading THESE LIES:
(1) Yes, Ukraine lost & is a wasteland, but it is the fault NOT of Obama-Biden-Nuland, but EVIL PUTIN.
(2) Valiant, democracy-loving, well-meaning Ukrainian spies wanted to help us defeat EVIL PUTIN, who shot down the Malaysian airplane & interfered in the 2016 US election.
(3) EVIL PUTIN also interfered in Ukraine election so that EVIL YANUKOVYCH, who appeared to be popular, was overthrown by PATRIOTIC UKRAINIANS (with CIA help)
(4) EVIL PUTIN forced Crimea’s Russian majority to become part of Russia instead of joining PATRIOTIC UKRAINIANS who just overthrew YANUKOVYCH.
(5) EVIL PUTIN forced Russian majority in Donbas, Yanukovych’s home area, to reject PATRIOTIC UKRAINIANS’ new rulers after they overthrew Yanukovych.
(6) EVIL PUTIN forced valiant, democracy-loving Ukrainian paramilitaries (Azov Battalion) to terrorize Donbas, burning villages & towns & killing 150,000 (with CIA help).
(7) “Jolly Santa Claus” (peaceloving CIA) cautioned overly zealous Ukrainians not to cross “red lines forbidding lethal operations,” but their patriotism just got the best of them as they slaughtered the people of Donbas.
(8) EVIL PUTIN manipulated the 2016 US election, putting into power HIS EVIL TWIN, TRUMP, who almost ruined the whole thing–but the Glorious Heroes of the Deep State kept it all secret, “Tiptoeing Around Trump.”
(9) EVIL PUTIN FOR NO REASON decided to invade & destroy Wonderful, Well-meaning Utopia of Ukraine & loved to slaughter civilians fleeing Mariupol
(10) EVIL REPUBLICAN may at last stop sending “billions of dollars” to Great Leader Zelenskyy: “It happened in Afghanistan before and now it’s going to happen in Ukraine,” a senior Ukrainian officer said. (Surely thinking of Great Leader Biden’s finest hour, the abandonment of Afghanistan.)
