“He was a disgruntled Lieutenant Colonel who really fancied himself as a budding diplomat and expert on the Ukraine”
You may disagree with his testifying but why do you question his credentials on Ukraine? Why did Trump's staff in 2018 accept his appointment to the NSC if he was not an expert on Ukraine? Only a moron would question his expertise on Ukraine.
He received a master of arts degree from Harvard University in Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian studies.
Beginning in 2008, Vindman became a Foreign Area Officer specializing in Eurasia. In this capacity he served in the U.S. embassies in Kiev, Ukraine, and Moscow, Russia. Returning to Washington, D.C. he was then a politico-military affairs officer focused on Russia for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Vindman was on the Joint Staff at the Pentagon from September 2015 to July 2018.
In July 2018, Vindman accepted an assignment with the National Security Council. In his role on the NSC, Vindman became part of the U.S. delegation at the inauguration of the Ukraine's newly elected President, Volodymyr Zelensky.
