Nuland-Pyatt tape removed from YouTube after 8 years
The smoking gun proving US involvement in the 2014 coup in Kiev has been removed from YouTube after eight years.
It was the most complete version of the intercepted and leaked conversation between then Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and Geoffrey Pyatt, the then US ambassador to Ukraine, in which the two discussed who will make up the new government weeks before democratically-elected Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych was overthrown in a violent coup on Feb. 21, 2014.
The US State Department never denied the authenticity of the video and even issued an apology to the European Union. The video has now been removed.
