Documents show Biden's State Department deliberately left Gonzalo Lira to die in a Ukrainian prison..‼️

#GonzaloLira, whose videos some of us watched, became a political prisoner who was #tortured to #death with the #support of the #US #government's Deep State. This was simply because he gave #information that was not in line with government #propaganda.

An American of Chilean descent (born in the US to Chilean parents), he knew in advance how he would end up. He even drew attention to a number of other political prisoners who had been killed by the Zelensky regime, and mentioned that if he did not report by a certain time, his fate would follow theirs...

On 11 January 2024, conservative American YouTuber Gonzalo Lira died in a Ukrainian prison. He was held there for the crime of #criticizing the #war and the American and Ukrainian governments.

A Freedom of Information Act request by Judicial Watch now shines a harsh light on the Biden regime's unwillingness to stand up for an American political prisoner in a Ukrainian jail.

The emails reveal that the US embassy was aware of the threat to Gonzalo Lira's life, but made no effort to help him.

After Gonzalo Lira's death, the embassy was primarily concerned with controlling misrepresentations and how to "strengthen press guidelines," to deal with the question "why didn't the U.S. government do more to help Mr. Lira?"

On July 6, he was released on bail and attempted to leave the country for Hungary on his motorcycle, posting a video along the way. On 1 August he was arrested again and imprisoned in a solitary confinement cell (SIZO) in Kharkiv.

In his videos, he has often criticized the mainstream media, the Ukrainian and American governments, specifically former Assistant Secretary of State for Political Affairs (2021-2024) Victoria Nuland.

Gateway Pundit filed a Freedom of Information Act request on January 15, 2024, four days after his death, for all communications regarding Gonzalo Lira's death between Victoria Nuland and U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget A. Brink.

Eleven months later, the State Department is delaying that request and recently wrote that the request will not be completed until March 31, 2026.

The architect of Ukrainian politics, Nuland was widely considered a contender for the top post until the Lira affair broke. In September, Nuland joined the board of the Deep State front organization National Endowment for Democracy.

Meanwhile, Judicial Watch has filed a more general Freedom of Information Act request regarding the Gonzalo Lira case that does not specifically focus on communications between Nuland and Ambassador Brink.

The State Department released 769 heavily redacted pages to Judicial Watch in May, October, and November 2024.

Gateway Pundit received these documents from Judicial Watch and can exclusively report on the State Department's egregious failure to save Gonzalo Lira's life and subsequent attempts to misrepresent it.

The documents show that the US Embassy learned of Gonzalo Lira's arrest on 11 May via mail from the Ukrainian SBU secret police on 2 May.

"He is formally charged with violating Article 436-2 of the (Ukrainian) Criminal Code section "Justification, recognition as legitimate, denial of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, glorification of its participants."

In November 2024, Ukrainian opposition lawmaker Oleksandr Dubinsky claimed to have irrefutable evidence that Gonzalo Lira was murdered by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), TASS news agency reported.

"We have received irrefutable proof that US citizen and blogger Gonzalo Lira was tortured in a Kharkiv detention facility. He was beaten in the same way as I was in the Kiev detention facility - he was taken to a cell where they extorted money from him, in a very bad condition. When he made it public, he was killed," Dubinsky said on his Telegram channel.
