Zelensky: You can defend the fatherland without body armor, but with a spirit of steel

70

In Ukraine and abroad, the statements of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy made during his visit to Donbass are being discussed. Recall that the Ukrainian president visited the part of the region controlled by Kiev on Defender of the Fatherland Day, which has recently been postponed from February 23 to October 14. With such a transfer, Kiev once again tried to emphasize that they "parted with the Soviet past."

During his speech, Zelensky decided to recall the words of the Western historian Jean-Benoit Sherer, who described the Cossack life in his writings. According to Zelensky, Scherer was "inspired by the Zaporozhye Cossacks."



Zelensky:

He wrote in his chronicles that the Zaporozhye Cossacks are like Spartans who are used to fighting, and like the Romans, but not striving to conquer foreign territories. They could not come to terms with the lack of freedom.

In his tirade, the Ukrainian president pointed out that the modern Ukrainian army "must follow the glorious traditions of the Zaporizhzhya Sich."

At the same time, Zelensky did not specify the glorious traditions of which period of the Sich's existence modern Ukrainian servicemen should follow: when, together with the Polish interventionists, they supported False Dmitry I and went to Moscow, or the period after the Pereyaslav Rada in 1654, which in historiography is often called the reunification of Ukraine and Russia.

At the same time, Zelensky said that "Russian aggression" can be resisted not only with weapons in hand. According to the Ukrainian president, this can be done "without armor (bulletproof vests - approx. VO), but with a spirit of steel."

Zelensky:

Ukrainian defenders of the fatherland are also those who have expressed a desire and readiness to defend their native land from Russian aggression, even with a stick, even with bare hands.

After that, Ukrainian users once again indirectly asked the head of state the question: and the desire to achieve the transit of Russian gas should also be attributed to the opposition to "Russian aggression"? ..

        No, Zelensky! Ukrainian Banderlog-chauvinists in Ukraine did not part with the SOVIET PAST!

        Russian lands, donated by the Bolshevik-Trotskyists to the Ukrainian petty-bourgeois national-chauvinists during the formation of the Ukrainian SSR, return to Russia in an amicable way for the Russians!
        Then it will be possible to say that Ukraine allegedly parted with its SOVIET PAST - and then at a stretch!

            Do not doubt that it is absolutely certain that the special services of Ukraine, the United States and the NATO countries are purposefully reading the VO website and analytically studying all its articles and comments by the site's members! Even for that, they don't need to have their members here!
            It's just their usual professional intelligence analytical work.

        Steel eggs are great and there are no analogues in this world. There were such, only the Greek god Hephaestus, who worked for Zeus as a blacksmith. The advantage was that when sparks ran between his legs, he knew that a thunderstorm was moving. His wife Aphrodite, also a goddess born of the sea, loved to lie down on the sofa to look at the computer and compare the weather forecast with her husband's eggs. And they always spitefully spoke on the phone to the goddess Hera - again our forecast to the very sweetheart, the mazha's forecast is 100% accurate. Steel eggs of the husband when they expand between the legs by 30 cm. They give a prognosis of 101% correctly. And how is your husband Zeus? I don't know about him, she forbade him to spread his legs. In the spring, as I remember now, he spread his legs, lightning burst out and burned the feather bed and six pillows of swan down. Its checks are expensive. All the swans around are bald, like their mother gave birth.

      And die for the prosperity of its offshore ... The West will fight with the hands of these authorities with Russia to the last Ukrainian.

      Sometimes it seems that this little man is so sniffed (his creative environment "heals" depression, he was noticed in this before the presidency) and started playing that he lives in his fictitious reality!

      After all, his words already border on an insult to the point of indecency:
      ... who expressed a desire and readiness to defend their native land from Russian aggression, even with a stick, even with bare hands.
      Against machine guns, tanks and missiles ... Calls on the drug market!

    Once upon a time there was a Wolf who had a large flock of sheep. Every day he ate one ram from the flock. The sheep caused the Wolf a lot of trouble - they scattered through the forest, and he had to spend a lot of time trying to catch one ram and gather the others back into a herd. Of course, the ram, which he was going to kill, felt this and began to desperately resist, and his screams frightened others. And then the Wolf decided to come up with such a trick - he talked to each ram in private, and instilled something in everyone.
    To one he said: "You are not a ram, you are an Eagle. You have nothing to fear, because I kill and eat only sheep, but you are the only Eagle in this flock and therefore - my best friend."
    To the second he said: "Why are you running away from me like other rams. You are a Leo and you have nothing to fear. I only kill sheep, and you are my friend."
    To the third he instilled: "Listen, you are not a ram, you are a Wolf. A wolf, whom I respect. I, as before, will continue to kill one sheep from the flock every day, but the Wolf, my best friend, has nothing to fear."
    Thus, he talked to everyone and instilled in everyone that he is not a ram, but a completely different animal, which is different from all the other sheep in the flock. After this conversation, the behavior of the sheep completely changed - they grazed quite calmly and never ran into the forest again. And when the Wolf killed another ram, they thought: "Well, they killed another ram, and I - Leo, Wolf, Eagle, the Wolf's best friend, have nothing to fear."
    And even the rams he killed stopped resisting. He just walked up to one of them and said: "Oh, my best friend, we haven't spoken for a long time.
