The demise of Vladimir Zelensky - when will the USA throw him under a bus?
The augurs are not good for Ukraine's President Zelensky .
Menacing clouds gather: Zelensky in his latest trip to Washington failed to get more $billions from USA - the Ukraine counter-offensive against Russia has failed - European support for Ukraine is faltering- huge losses of soldiers and civilians - continuing corruption in Ukraine - shutting down of Orthodox churches in closed trials, alienation of all except fascist and nazi -connected political parties - unhappiness of oppressed Russian-speaking citizens.
With complete disregard for Ukraine's history, - its experiences during World War 2, the Minsk agreement, the 8 years of war against the Donbass region, and then disregard of Zelensky's promises pre-election, - USA and the West swallowed the whole magical myth of Zelensky as saviour of Ukraine and of the world from the satanic Putin.
It might have been wise to consider just who is this person they are choosing to lead Ukraine, USA, NATO into this super-expensive murderous mess. The comedic background sounds like fun - the clown who once pretended to play the piano with his penis. But not only did Zelensky lack a background in politics: he was really out of his depth in the complicated and corrupt world of Ukraine's business and political world.
What Zelensky did have was an inflated ego, a narcissistic personality, and a superb ability to charm, con and persuade people. So he's brave, energetic, etc. But it has been a disastrous two-way street - Zelensky conning the West and the West conning Zelensky. into Ukraine's suicidal aim to humiliate Russia, re-acquire Crimea and the Donbass, and become a NATO bastion.
In the meantime, the Ukrainian death toll mounts, and the USA weapons manufacturers profits mount.
But hey! - now we've got the Israel-Gaza crisis. That all needs USA weapons, too, to keep that massacre going. The spotlight is off Ukraine.
There must be many who resent Zelensky - to put it mildly. Perhaps there will be a negotiated way out of the Ukraine mess, and Zelensky might safely slide off to quiet retirement overseas.
Vladimir Zeklensky has been very useful to the USA. But it's time to discard him.
