Career

It Should be noted that John Tefft (photo presented in the article) for over four decades gave the diplomatic service. From the beginning he specialized in Europe, particularly interested in the socialist camp. The accumulated experience and knowledge helped in the work, when Tefft was appointed Ambassador to the countries of the former USSR. And he first came to Europe in 1986. He was then assigned to the U.S. Embassy in Italy. In 1989 he returned home. Until 1992, he served in the U.S. Department of State. He held the position of Deputy Director of the Department dealing with Affairs of the USSR, and subsequently the CIS and Russia. Interestingly, the collapse of the Soviet Union occurred at this time. John, so to speak, then gaining experience from senior colleagues. There is no denying that the US is a lot of energy invested in competition with the Union. It is believed that the Americans won. And at the forefront of that fight were diplomats. Among them is our hero. He took an active part in the events of those days. Obviously, very successfully, for superiors noted his merits by entrusting more serious independent work. In 2000 he became the U.S. Ambassador to Lithuania, having to work before a couple of years in Moscow (1996-1999).

U.S. Ambassador to Russia John Tefft

As already mentioned, the blogosphere is a new appointment from overseas was met with alarming articles. And why was. To Moscow he had already celebrated in Tbilisi and Kiev. And activities of the U.S. Ambassador in these countries was very “fruitful”. But this will be discussed further. And in April 2014, John Tefft was appointed Ambassador to the Russian Federation. The latter objection was not. Calmly the President of the Russian Federation adopted a new Ambassador, and his biography, it seemed, had no impact on the decision of the head of state. The activities of the American Ambassador is always under close scrutiny, although the public do not talk about it. The fact that the opportunities to work with the diplomatic representative of the population in any country has many. This, by the way, the last two years around the world show Western representatives in Ukraine. Not a day goes by, as there is regular news about who is now "pushing" the American Ambassador. John Tefft, of course, well aware of their capabilities. The direction in which it implements them? For what purpose uses? It is possible to assume, having studied the experience in other countries.

Georgia

In this country will not soon forget what you've done John Tefft, the U.S. Ambassador. He worked in Georgia from 2005 to 2009, actively supported Saakashvili, directing its reform efforts. It should be noted that Georgia had made progress. There were able to cope with the manifestations of corruption in the police and government bodies at lower levels. Whether this involved Tefft? Probably. No decision by the US Ambassador does not pass. In the satellite countries a person specifies what to do. In any case, as happens in those States where the authorities allowed a Pro-American policy. In Georgia was so. The American Ambassador had a huge impact on Saakashvili. He has consistently guided him into conflict with Russia. Efforts were crowned with success, the regular part of the Georgian attack on the Russian peacekeepers. Only the effect of the RAID was reversed. Tefft with his challenge, but Saakashvili failed. Instead of winning the war, the West got a reason for ridicule and a giant slap in the face. So far on all platforms I remember how Saakashvili ate his tie. Jokes on the matter do not cease. However, Tefft did my job. Georgia will long to look askance at Russia. Countries and peoples have managed to involve in a conflict situation.

Ukraine

In General, Washington has decided that the specialist is indispensable. In 2009 it moved into an important new area – Ukraine. Here, as we all now know, preparing the ground for the coup. The current US Ambassador in Moscow John Tefft said at the Ukraine that was maintain by all means the inculcation of European values to the population. He openly promoted gay pride parades, conducted wide public activity. It should be noted that the Ambassador – is a position with broad powers. It is not only the head of state and the diplomatic corps communicates, his responsibilities include support to the implementation of the country's cultural and other projects. And this gives you the opportunity to communicate with a huge number of people. The U.S. Ambassador in some circles of any country is respected even more than the President, because we try to stay close to fulfill all the requests and orders. And money to pay for the services Americans have no regrets. Obviously, before Tefft's task was to organize new color revolution. In 2013, she began, and we all witnessed the success of John of this mission.

Like the Ambassador arrived in Moscow

Now understand the feelings of people who love Russia. After all, this person is able to find in the society of the disaffected, to organize and direct them in the right direction. It was observed that us Ambassador to Russia John Tefft immediately began to establish close contacts with non-system opposition. He travels around the country, watching a few protest movements. I must say that the former Ambassador did not show love to the Russian leadership. McFaul is also considered a supporter of the color revolutions. However, he was more involved in theoretical developments. Tefft explicit practices. He acts consistently, firmly, purposefully. He demonstrated on the examples of Georgia and Ukraine. It is clear that in Russia he was appointed not just. Especially in relationships with the patriots, John Tefft is not seen. He is more interested in the people, famous for his controversial criticism of the Russian President.

Methods of work

Tefft does not hide what he wants to achieve. It is considered a very straightforward diplomat. So, in Ukraine, he never once openly said that his goal – democratic changes in this country. They say that we need open elections and reforms. A subtext of this was: I will seek a change of government by any means. That, in principle, happen. The Ambassador operates through a system of grants. This is a common American tactic. Dissatisfied, willing to work in the paradigm of the interests of the United States, issued the funds. The grant can be any subject. To work the recipient must on the creation of a public protest against the current government. The Tefft calls it the development of civil society. But it turns out he is extremely one-sided. Apparently, the same action is expected from him in Russia: results of grants to those who agree to sell the Home, transfer of funds of non-system opposition and so on. But the Russian society is somewhat different. People for the most part patriotically adjusted. This does not mean the absence of dissatisfaction. But the US love more than their own government. Not easy in such a situation accounts for the Ambassador – Creator of the color revolutions.

Only the case in politics?

It is Proposed to go back to Ukraine. Why there is carried out the coup? We are told that the point is to set the population against Russia, to establish a military base of NATO or the US in this area. And if you look at the events happening in Ukraine right now, open to unpleasant facts. Economic enterprises prepared for privatization. The country is devastated, therefore, the assets have lost part of the price. Now they sell at a reduced cost “your” to customers. The head of the government of Ukraine has stated that the privatization of assumptions...
