The German publication Junge Welt reports that the call of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky for the West to launch a pre-emptive strike against Russia was adventurous and hysterical. The FRG noted that it has become a standard in the political life of Kiev.
As columnist Arnold Schelzel writes, since 2014, the Kiev authorities have been accustomed to “morally blackmail their own sponsors in the West.” “The tail is trying to wag the dog,” he pointed out.
The author added that there is a crack in relations between Ukraine and the United States. This became known last week. Then Zelensky called for Ukraine’s accelerated entry into NATO. However, later CNN and the New York Times published information that Ukraine itself ordered the murder of Russian reporter Daria Dugina.
As a result, the publication concluded that due to the unpredictability of Zelensky’s office, “The West will only help with arms supplies and will not want to fight directly with Russia.” The biggest threat to Zelensky was called calm at the front. This assumption explains his “irresponsible appeals to despair.”
Earlier, columnist Rod Dreher, in an article for The American Conservative, noted that the United States cannot allow Vladimir Zelensky to “lead himself by the nose” in order not to cross the line of nuclear war. He stressed that Zelensky intends to force Europe and the United States to provide maximum assistance to Ukraine. However, this is at odds with the interests of the Americans themselves.
And the author also stated that the Ukrainian authorities do not always demonstrate commitment to democratic values. He recalled that at various times Zelensky banned the activities of 11 political parties on the territory of Ukraine. In addition, the support of neo-Nazi rhetoric characterizes the President of Ukraine not from the best side.
