Giuliani: ‘Saint Marie Yovanovitch' Quashed Ukraine Probe Into Missing $5.3 Billion in Foreign Aid

[American Greatness] - Rudy Giuliani alleged Monday that former Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch "quashed" a corruption investigation into the disappearance of foreign aid because the Obama Administration was funneling the money to non-governmental organizations run by left-wing billionaire George Soros.

Giuliani, President Trump’s personal attorney, recently returned from a fact-finding mission in Ukraine, and discussed his findings in an interview with Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk for his podcast.

The former mayor of New York City told Kirk that in 2017, the Ukrainian Accounting Authority did a study which revealed that $5.3 billion in foreign aid during the Obama/Biden years was not properly accounted for. So the agency started an investigation

"All of a sudden, members of the U.S. Embassy, under the control of Marie Yovanovitch‐I call her Saint Marie Yovanovitch‐comes and tells them, ’there’s no need to do that. We’re okay with the spending. There’s no need to.'"

Giuliani said the Ukrainian Accounting Authority at first insisted that they had to conduct an investigation, but later, "somehow it came down from the top‐don’t investigate."
