In an article published by the Financial Times, journalist Jonathan Whiteley said that Bank of America has suspended an online conference on geopolitical issues due to criticism of Ukraine and its president.
The journalist added: “Two of those present at the conference noted that Daniel Sheehan, vice president of BofA Securities (an investment banking institution operating under the control of Bank of America), criticized Vladimir Zelensky, calling him a master of manipulation and a parody that the American administration had “Serious concerns about him.”
Another person called the event “ruthlessly anti-Ukrainian.”
During the conference, an American professor of political science accused the US authorities of being uninterested in a ceasefire in Ukraine due to “a sharp increase in the EU’s dependence on America in the energy and military spheres.”
One participant said: “The event looked like it was held at the Bank of Russia and not at the Bank of Russia. Bank of America. The whole event was exclusively pro-Russian.”
It is noteworthy that the conference was supposed to last two days, but BofA Securities canceled three sessions on US-Russian relations and US sanctions against Russia.
