In July of 2019, he listened to the scandalous conversation of the presidents of the USA and Ukraine and told the Committee of the U.S. Congress, which is the case for the impeachment of trump. Then wingman said about the attempts of the White house to put pressure on the Ukrainian government.

Accepting the invitation to go to work in the national security Council USA, United wingman answered including the formation of policy towards Ukraine. Despite the excellent biography of the military, the part of the supporters of Donald trump lashed out at the officer, including making against him charges of «dual loyalty» and even suspicions that he may be a «double agent».
Meanwhile, journalist USA.One Ksenia Kirillova told the editorial Board that in 2014, I personally spoke with Windmane, which at the time was the Deputy military attache of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow.
«After our personal conversation at the end of July 2014 I have no doubt that this man was an American patriot. I was amazed at the firmness with which he defended the foreign policy of the US position in the most difficult conditions of Russia, at a time when Moscow has intensified «Patriotic boom» and harassment of American diplomats. Moreover, when we talked to him about Russian-Ukrainian war, Lieutenant Colonel (then major) of Bindman stressed that the lives of American soldiers more important to him than the protection of Ukraine. It left no doubt about its priorities,» – said the journalist.
As explained Xenia, in the year following this meeting, it shall at the request of Alexander Vindman shared with him by e-mail of its author’s intelligence, and links to their articles.
«From its response letters it was evident that the Colonel of wingman even afraid to write their personal impressions and assessments, knowing that the communication channel may be insecure. It was obvious that I was dealing with a true professional who treated the information very carefully, and I think he wouldn’t have to disclose any facts, without truly compelling reasons. Also, despite the fact that I have exclusively shared his expert opinion, which was published in the public domain, and we have not done anything illegal, Mr. Bindman emphasized that for all his interest in my work and my safety to a higher priority,» – says the correspondent of the USA.One.
According to Kseniya Kirillova, a major motive for the decision of Colonel Wingman to agree to testify in Congress could really be convinced that this meets the national interests of the United States.

It’s not like the person who would make rash decisions, for whatever personal reasons,» concludes the Xenia.
