It’s hard to know how this could possibly be happening. Apart from the fact that Chrystia Freeland does have Ukranian heritage, and just happens to have played Trump at his own game when it came to negotiating tariffs on behalf of Canada when she was Minister of International Trade (2015 to 2017). Ms Freeland also is an ex- journalist, which seems increasingly a qualification to be successful in Politics.
Interestingly enough on her mother’s side during the aftermath of World War two her mother was born in Germany in a hospital administered by the US Army. Chrystia herself was born in Canada and until her recent appointment by Zelensky was MP for Toronto.
So Zelensky is beefing up his International Economic Power with the aim of reconstructing Ukraine when the War is over , if it is ever over. Meanwhile with houses in Canada, Ukraine and London, Chrystia is well placed to cover the ground wherever she is needed.
