After Rick Perry became Donald’s Energy Secretary, he had to resign on 1 December 2019. This looks to be (again) about the Ukraine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Perry
Perry attended Volodymyr Zelenskiy's May 2019 inauguration as the new Ukraine president.
In a meeting during that trip, Perry handed president Zelenskiy a list of 4 people he recommended as energy advisers. One of the 4 names was his long-time backer Michael Bleyzer. Rick Perry told Zelenskiy that he was close to him…
The recommendation was made when Zelensky was trying to get $400 million in U.S. military aid.
A week later, Bleyzer and his partner Alex Cranberg offered $53 million to drill for oil and gas at the large government-controlled site Varvynska. The competing bidder, UkrGasVydobuvannya (UGV) offered more than $60 million.
But Bleyzer’s and Cranberg’s newly created joint venture, Ukrainian Energy, was awarded the lucrative 50-year contract anyway only a month after Perry had visited the Ukraine.
Bleyzer and Perry’s ties go back at least a decade. In 2009, as governor of Texas, Perry appointed Bleyzer to serve on a Texas state advisory board overseeing state funding to emerging technology ventures.
In 2010, Bleyzer donated $30,000 to Perry’s campaign for Texas governor.
In 2008, Bleyzer’s company hired Rudy Giuliani’s then Houston-based Bracewell & Giuliani, for assistance in acquiring cable holdings in 16 Ukrainian cities.
In 2008, Bleyzer also donated $2,300 to Giuliani’s presidential campaign.
In November 2018, before Zelenskiy, at an energy industry conference in Kyiv, Rick Perry spoke highly of Cranberg’s expertise.
Both Cranberg and Bleyzer were in the room, along with several American and Ukrainian energy industry officials.
Cranberg is a large Republican donor, who provided Perry the use of a corporate jet during his failed 2012 presidential bid. In 2011, Governor Perry appointed Cranberg to serve 6 years on the state university system’s board of regents.
Cranberg and his wife each donated $50,000 April 2019 to Trump Victory: https://apnews.com/6d8ae551fb884371a2a592ed85a74426
