The Ukrainian outlet Ukrainska Pravda has published a historical piece about Trujillo, president of the Dominican Republic. Its headline calls him a "son of a bitch" of the United States, nicknamed "the Goat", and the article itself tells his story.

The available excerpt says that late on 30 May 1961 a blue Chevrolet Bel Air was speeding along the highway from the Dominican capital, Ciudad Trujillo, towards the city of San Cristóbal. The excerpt gives no further details, so the other facts and circumstances of the piece are not covered here.
