Oleg Sukhov: Don’t believe reformist bluster by top officials

John E. Herbst, an ex-U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, has praised Ukrainian authorities’ reform efforts in an op-ed for the Atlantic Council published on June 20.

He argues that the West was wrong in its skepticism about the alleged reformist credentials of Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman and Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko.

I beg to disagree with Herbst.
