Related: About this forumState Dept. Psaki grilled over leaked tape
Senior US State Department official Victoria Nuland has allegedly been caught giving a harsh message to the EU while discussing Ukrainian opposition leaders' roles in the country's future government. The phone call was taped and posted on YouTube. US officials refused to confirm or deny the tape's authenticity, but State Department spokesperson Jan Psaki said that she "didn't say it was inauthentic." While being grilled about this and other tape-related statements, Psaki hinted that the tape could have been leaked by Moscow.

She is two faced.
She speaks with a forked-tongue.
It takes a special kind of evil to be so hypocritical and to lie with such ease.
Is there a special school that teaches this kind of behavior ?
I wish the US would keep it's long intrusive nose out of world affairs.
They are never on the side of the people in the countries they meddle in.

Would it be searched on YouTube as "Ukrainian phone call" or something?
