The Washington Post: Zelensky has been criticized for not warning the Ukrainians about the upcoming Russian special operation

21

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is facing harsh criticism in the West for failing to warn the Ukrainian people about Russia's upcoming special military operation. This is written by the American newspaper The Washington Post. It should be noted that this is not the first such publication.

Earlier, the publication wrote that US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken told Zelensky about Russia's military plans in the fall of 2021. Then Zelensky himself said in an interview with the publication that he was aware of the upcoming special operation, but did not tell the people about it.



The Ukrainian authorities, for incomprehensible reasons, did not begin to prepare society for the upcoming conflict. The evacuation of the civilian population from the settlements located on the border with Russia and with the republics of Donbass was not started. For ordinary citizens of Ukraine, the military operation of the neighboring state came as a complete surprise, for which Zelensky is being criticized today.

If earlier Zelensky was perceived as a “national hero”, at least, this is the image the Ukrainian president was created by both the Western and Ukrainian press, now the head of the Kyiv regime is being criticized more and more often. He ceases to be a person "free from criticism", especially against the backdrop of the ongoing offensive of Russian and allied forces and the growing energy and economic crisis in the West.

It is possible that, by publishing critical materials about Zelensky’s activities, the Western press is gradually beginning to prepare public opinion for the prospect of “leaking” if not the Ukraine project in general, then Zelensky as a top manager of this project in particular. Not all Western elite groups are satisfied with the personality and activities of the Ukrainian president, especially after the publication of the so-called Panama Dossier, where Zelensky and the companies controlled by him appear.

        So Ze blurted out that if he agreed to what Moscow suggested in October m-tse (stop cutting off water to the Crimea, leave the LDNR alone, not join NATO), then he would lose 7 billion dollars in m-tse. This is what pisses people off the most. He thought about his pocket, and that how many people died, so this is "Ugh for him!"

    Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is facing harsh criticism in the West for failing to warn the Ukrainian people about Russia's upcoming special military operation.
    So since 2014, the authorities of Ukraine have declared that they are at war with Russia, all sorts of performances were arranged, remember at the UN meeting, some ragamuffins with a yellow-Blakyt flag came up? laughing The West didn’t pay attention then. More precisely, I didn’t want to. It was as if they didn’t act as the guarantor of the Minsks .. As if they didn’t hear Russia’s statements, calm down and calm down yourself .. But the criticism itself is interesting. laughing

    They are kind of strange. Where has it been seen that a shepherd would bow in front of a herd of brainless sheep, telling them about how tomorrow he will lead them to the slaughterhouse?
    The Washington Post is up to something again. Obviously they are not concerned about the ignorance of the herd. Rather, they are really preparing to control the junkie according to the Yugoslav version.

    and he warned his people about how his “picking” in the ZNPP would end for the country and what kind of people are they who silently watch how they are being prepared as a sacrifice, surrounded by radionuclides and set fire to all this with the hands of their own children?

    Yes, this "criticism" is like peas against the wall. What the hell are the people if it is necessary to save their families and dogs on the sly. And the people are required at the front in the form of cannon fodder.

    A few days before the war...
    1. Head of the Russian General Staff Valery Gerasimov: “The redeployment of units during combat training is a routine practice for the armed forces of any state. Military activities are carried out on national territory and do not require notification. The information spread in the media about the allegedly impending Russian invasion of Ukraine is a lie.”
    2. Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Sergey Ryabkov: “We explained to our American colleagues that we have no plans, intentions to “attack” Ukraine and cannot have.”
    3. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov: “Russia has never, nowhere, never threatened the Ukrainian people through the mouths of its official representatives. … You claim that we are going to attack Ukraine, although we have already explained many times that this is not the case. Are you asking why now? And when not to attack us. … If it depends on the Russian Federation, there will be no war.”
    4. Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN in Geneva, Gennady Gatilov: “Perhaps Western officials and analysts are at a loss when deciphering the completely unambiguous statements of the Russian leadership. Therefore, I repeat: Russia does not and did not have plans to invade Ukraine. There is no motive or geostrategic purpose in this. And most importantly - even a hint of common sense "

    Well, why blame everything on Zelensky at once?
    Anthony Blinken could have warned the Ukrainian people himself.
    You might think he was banned on the Internet.
