Politicians have publicly called him <em data-start=\"627\" data-end=\"640\">\u00abtraitor\u00bb<\/em> and <em data-start=\"644\" data-end=\"662\">\u00abKremlin agent\u00bb<\/em>, calling for his immediate removal from office.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"712\" data-end=\"910\">The congressmen note that Wittkoff's actions undermine US national interests and pose risks to US foreign policy, especially as Russia continues its aggression against Ukraine.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"912\" data-end=\"941\">What Witkoff is charged with<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"942\" data-end=\"1292\">According to the congressmen, Trump's envoy:<br data-start=\"984\" data-end=\"987\" \/>- promoted in Washington <strong data-start=\"1011\" data-end=\"1037\">positions favourable to russia<\/strong>;<br data-start=\"1038\" data-end=\"1041\" \/>- tried to influence the formation of US foreign policy in a way that did not follow the official line;<br data-start=\"1143\" data-end=\"1146\" \/>- acted in contact with representatives of a structure linked to the Kremlin;<br data-start=\"1214\" data-end=\"1217\" \/>- provided \u00abhighly questionable\u00bb recommendations to the administration on Ukraine and NATO.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1294\" data-end=\"1390\">Some politicians directly accused him of <strong data-start=\"1337\" data-end=\"1389\">attempts to sabotage US support for Ukraine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1392\" data-end=\"1424\">Demand for immediate release<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1425\" data-end=\"1477\">The congressmen appealed to the White House:<\/p>\n<ol data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1614\">\n<li data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1530\">\n<p data-start=\"1481\" data-end=\"1530\"><strong data-start=\"1481\" data-end=\"1527\">to immediately remove Witkoff

activities to the US Department of Justice<\/strong> for legal assessment.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p data-start=\"1616\" data-end=\"1764\">The statement emphasises that in the context of Russia's war against Ukraine, any manifestation of loyalty to the Kremlin by American officials is unacceptable.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1766\" data-end=\"1779\">Context.<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1780\" data-end=\"2097\">The scandal arose amid active discussions around the new US peace plan for Ukraine, as well as growing tensions between different factions of Congress over Trump's approach to resolving the war.<br data-start=\"1970\" data-end=\"1973\" \/>The charges against Wittkoff could complicate diplomatic processes and affect the domestic political situation in Washington.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041a\u043e\u043d\u0433\u0440\u0435\u0441\u043c\u0435\u043d\u0438 \u0421\u0428\u0410 \u043d\u0430\u0437\u0432\u0430\u043b\u0438
