One of the most important figures in the US State Department may be the daughter of the famous Ukrainian nationalist Paul Dobriansky. The administration of President of the United States Donald Trump plans to put it forward to the position of Thomas Shannon, who now holds the second most important position in the US Foreign Ministry. He announced his intention to retire, according to Bloomberg. It is noted that Paul Dobriansky, an expert on foreign policy issues, a high-ranking diplomat from the time of George W. Bush's presidency, was America's special envoy to Northern Ireland. She also served as US Deputy Secretary of State in Global Affairs. Today she cooperates with the Center for Science and International Relations of Belfer in Harvard.

Paul Dobriansky comes from an American family of Ukrainian origin. Her father is Lev Dobriansky, who for many years headed the Ukrainian Congressional Committee of America (UKCA) - the most significant association of the Ukrainian diaspora in the United States. He petitioned for granting Ukrainian nationalists the right of asylum in the United States. During the training of the future First Lady of Ukraine Kateryna Yushchenko at Georgetown University, Lev Dobriansky taught her the economy.
