    Seen the video.

    Doesn't change the fact that Biden was pursuing US interests when pressuring Ukraine to remove the corrupt prosecutor Shokin.

    Surely you haven't relied on just the one video to formulate your view of what occurred.

    U.S. Policy: Plus and Minus

    Washington’s approach to reform and the Ukrainian economy is also mixed. On the plus side, the Obama administration understands well the nuances of Ukrainian reform. It recognizes that the government in Kyiv needs outside encouragement and, at times, tough love, to make the right reform choice. Mr. Biden, in particular, has devoted a great deal of time to promoting reform in Ukraine, and he has not been reluctant to tell Mr. Poroshenko and Mr. Yatsenyuk when they have shirked the hard choices that need to be made. This was evident in the conversations regarding Mr. Shokin and the Office of the Procurator General.
