Andrii Telizhenko, a former Ukrainian Embassy employee, has argued that he was told by Oksana Shulyar, a top counselor to Ukraine’s then-Ambassador to the U.S., Valeriy Chaly, that he should help Chalupa in her 2016 anti-Trump efforts. Chalupa has disputed Telizhenko’s claims.Emails also show Telizhenko also repeatedly met with Zentos in 2016 — meetings which Ciaramella was seemingly clued in on.“Dear Liz, Hi this is Andrii Telizhenko, how are you? Tried contacting you through facebook. I am working at the Embassy of Ukraine in US now,” Telizhenko emailed Zentos on Jan. 19, 2016. “Tomorrow you have a planned meeting with [Ukrainian officials] Mr. Sytnyk, Mr. Kholodnickiy, and Mr. Sakvarelidze at 11:00am, we spoke to Mr. Sytnyk and Mr. Kholodnockiy that they would like to have somebody from the Embassy be with them at the meeting. Would it be possible to add me in? I apologize for the late notice, just got informed. With Regards, Andrii Telizhenko.”Zentos forwarded the email to Ciaramella the same day, saying, “FYI—just took the time to actually read this. Woops.” Telizhenko appeared on the White House log for the meeting, seemingly with Ciaramella as his point of contact.A Senate GOP report said that the Ukrainian delegation was confirmed for January 19, 2016, at the Obama White House with “Eric Ciaramella, Elizabeth [sic] Zentos and others TBD, National Security Council.” The “Agenda for Examination of the US Adversarial Criminal Justice System for senior-level Ukrainian prosecutors January 18, 2016 – January 23, 2016” included a meeting with Ciaramella.Zentos and Telizhenko also planned a March 2016 meeting at a coffee shop in D.C., with Zentos saying she would see if Ciaramella was “up for joining.”Emails indicated Zentos and Telizhenko also had meetings in mid-March, mid-April, early May 2016, and early July 2016.The September 2020 report from Senate Republicans noted that “the Democrats’ personification of Russian disinformation” Andrii Telizhenko —who accompanied Rudy Giuliani to Ukraine in 2019 — also “met with Obama administration officials, including Elisabeth Zentos, a member of Obama’s National Security Council, at least ten times” and that “a Democrat lobbying firm, Blue Star Strategies, contracted with Telizhenko from 2016 to 2017 and continued to request his assistance as recent as the summer of 2019.”The Treasury Department sanctioned Telizhenko in January 2021.https://justthenews.com/government/white-house/years-after-trump-impeachment-facts-ukraine-whistleblowers-bias-and-biden
