POTUS Adviser John Bolton, in Ukraine, Warns of Chinese Influence
2019-08-29
[Free Beacon] KIEV ‐ U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton warned on Wednesday of the threat of unfair Chinese trade practices during a trip to Kiev and said he had discussed his concerns with officials, including President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

Asked about a possible acquisition by China of Ukrainian aircraft engine maker Motor Sich, Bolton told reporters he did not want to discuss specific companies or transactions and that such deals were a sovereign matter for Ukraine.

But he made clear Washington disapproved.

"We laid out our concerns about ... unfair Chinese trade practices, threats to national security we've seen in the United States..." he said at a news conference in Kiev.

#5  Ukraine had too many problems staring at a growing Imperial Russia 2.0™ to worry about China... Just because we see them (rightly, IMO) as a threat doesn't mean everybody has to.

#4  So odd that OB makes Erb sound like a moderate.
