Bolton unleashes on Trump Ukraine policy days after FBI raid
Former advisor points to contradictions over Russia sanctions and Pentagon blocking Ukraine strikes

After his home was raided by the FBI last week, former national security advisor John Bolton unleashed a blistering critique of President Donald Trump’s Ukraine policy, claiming it is marked by "confusion, haste and disarray." 

"Collapsing in confusion, haste, and the absence of any discernible meeting of the minds among UkraineRussia, several European countries, and America, Trump’s negotiations may be in their last throes, along with his Nobel Peace Prize campaign," Bolton wrote in an op-ed published days after federal agents carried out search warrants on his home and office.

Bolton said Trump’s attempt to fast-track a peace deal was "inevitably" doomed, arguing the Alaska summit with Putin on Aug. 15 was arranged at a pace "almost surely unprecedented in modern history." 

He blasted Trump’s abrupt reversal after the meeting — backing off new sanctions on Moscow and scrapping demands for a ceasefire in favor of a "final agreement" — as proof of chaotic diplomacy. Read more and see video here.
