NEW - Ukraine Launches Criminal Probe Into Meddling In 2020 U.S. Election

https://www.rferl.org/a/ukraine-criminal-probe-us-election-meddling/31074465.html
Ukraine has launched a criminal investigation into attempts to interfere in the November 2020 U.S. presidential election.

Andriy Yermak, the head of the office of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, said on January 28 that Ukraine would do everything in its power to bring to justice forces within the country and outside it who attempted to damage relations between Ukraine and the United States.

"The State Bureau of Investigation has opened a criminal case," Yermak was quoted as saying in an interview to the Ukrainian news outlet NV that was posted on the presidential website.

...

The U.S. Treasury Department on January 11 imposed sanctions on several Ukrainian individuals and entities, accusing them of U.S. election interference and associating with a pro-Russian Ukrainian lawmaker linked to efforts by then President Donald Trump's allies to find compromising information on President Joe Biden and his son.

We'll find out who was behind this, as if we don't know already.

For sure Rudy Giuliani made several visits - and many more phone calls.
So much was happening last year, I'm not sure if I can trust my memory.
