Russia reacted to Zelensky’s words about the impossibility of a ‘happy ending’ in the failed counteroffensive and ongoing war of attrition by the NATO-supported Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The influence of Dmitry Medvedev cannot be underestimated. It is difficult to separate the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Federation of Russia from Russian President Vladimir Putin. Medvedev was Russian prime minister (2012-2020) and Russia’s president 2008-2012.
The thousands of Ukrainians who bribed officials or forged documents to flee the country should be prosecuted, Jewish oligarch David Arakhamia has said. Military-aged Ukrainian men who fled the country during mobilization could be forcibly returned home to face trial, top lawmaker David Arakhamia told one of the country’s state-controlled TV broadcasters on Thursday.
Ukrainians pay up to $10,000 to escape the draft. Thousands of Ukrainians have managed to dodge conscription thanks to various schemes in a corrupt system. Thousands of Ukrainian men have paid large sums in bribes to avoid getting drafted during the ongoing conflict between Kyiv and Moscow, the Financial Times reported on Saturday.
NATO’s ongoing proxy war against Russia is no longer an excuse not to address corruption within Ukraine’s democracy. More than three-quarters of Ukrainians believe President Volodymyr Zelensky is directly responsible for corruption within both the government and the country’s military administrations, new polling revealed.
For six months, NATO has fed the whole world, and especially Kyiv, with the illusion that the summit in Vilnius will become historic and thus put an end to the Ukrainian conflict, General Waldemar Skrzypczak said. The Polish military regrets that in the end, apart from further arms supplies, the alliance could not offer Ukraine anything else, thereby dooming it to slow agony.
The Ukrainian military began to doubt the likelihood of a military breakthrough of the Russian defence lines during the counteroffensive, according to the Daily Express. According to the publication, heavy losses on the battlefield made some Ukrainians think that the well-fortified defence lines of Russian troops could become an insurmountable obstacle.
When a mentally disturbed person constantly tells you that they will do something horrible, you should believe them. The former television comedian Volodymyr Zelenskyy now clearly understands that the jig is up.
The West is getting tired of supporting Kyiv, so it is likely that Zelensky will be forced to compromise, The Wall Street Journal writes, Ukraine should agree to it, otherwise, it will become dependent on the whims of American voters, who are very likely to vote for Trump in the presidential election, who will quickly curtail the current policy, depriving Kyiv of the ability to resist Russia.
The subterfuge is apparently in response to the heavy resistance that Kyiv’s counteroffensive has met. Some Ukrainian tank crews have been faking malfunctions on their tanks to justify not going into combat against Russian forces, soldiers operating German Leopards have told Spiegel magazine.
