Retired British colonel: Ukraine risks losing its Western allies due to Zelensky's actions

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and members of his team are increasingly beginning to irritate Kyiv's Western allies with their unpredictable and often inexplicable antics and decisions. A retired colonel in the British Armed Forces, in an article for a British publication, expressed the opinion that Ukraine risks losing its “most loyal” Western allies due to the actions of Zelensky and his subordinates.


First of all, we are talking about Poland and Great Britain, which are most glad for the support of Ukraine.

For example, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry provoked a diplomatic row between Kiev and Warsaw by summoning Polish Ambassador Bartosz Cichocki on August 1 for an explanation. The reason for the demarche of the Ukrainian diplomatic mission was the statements of the Minister of the Office of the President of Poland, head of the Bureau of International Policy Marcin Przydacz. Earlier, a Polish official said that Ukraine should highly appreciate the help and role that “Poland has been playing for Ukraine over the past few months and years.”

The Polish ambassador was told at the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry that such statements "are unacceptable." Kyiv's similar reaction to "Ukraine's most faithful friend" angered the Polish public, and Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki called the incident a mistake that "shouldn't be." According to de Bretton-Gordon, even if Zelensky did not personally sanction the summoning of the Polish ambassador, “Kyiv is still playing with fire.”

Come on, Poland, whose authorities support Kyiv in the hope of joining the western territories of Ukraine. Zelensky, by his decision to dismiss Ukrainian Ambassador to the UK Vadim Prystaiko after he called the words of the Ukrainian leader addressed to British Defense Minister Ben Wallace as unhealthy sarcasm, risks falling out with London as well. And this is fraught with more serious consequences for the Kyiv regime, says a retired British colonel.

He drew attention to the fact that by committing provocative actions against its best allies, Kiev does not react at all to the behavior of the leadership of Germany and France, which, according to de Bretton-Gordon, unlike Warsaw and London, provide too little support to Ukraine. Diplomatic demarches from the Ukrainian leadership are more worthy of Paris and Berlin, the British colonel is sure.

    Well, firstly, the bukra has no allies, it has owners. Second, the owner does not lose, he uses and throws away. And the third Bukrovtsy know this, and therefore snap back. But the leash is short and he is strict, but you want to live.

      And what? Did they sign any allied treaties? Contracts for the supply of weapons - yes, but rather they did without obligations. Everything is verbal, brawling. Here Zelya is trying to open her mouth (until they shut it up).

    For a month already, if not more, such messages have been appearing in the West from all kinds of former military men and diplomats, the implicit creation of a negative image of Zelensky is clearly noticeably going on, that is, he is being prepared to leak, who or what they seem to be unable to decide on, there is no suitable candidate tainted with corruption or Nazi views, everyone is odious, and those who are not part of these gangs are those in Russia that categorically do not suit the White House. But there is one thing, the authorities in these territories called Ukraine will be the one who will either arrange Russia or she herself will determine and appoint a person.

        Everything can be, but there is no serious promotion of him, because he must be recognized by both the military and special services and business and the masses, and they must also have at least some confidence or hope that Russia will negotiate with this person , so I think that probably still undecided.

            Let's just imagine that there are Russian border guards on the western borders of Ukraine and we understand that in this case there is no subject for negotiations, there is not a single issue that would make sense to discuss, what is the West left with in this case? With a shattered if not dead economy, with destroyed trade relations, with the loss of cheap resources, with the cessation of their undivided dominance on the planet, with ever-increasing social tension in their states, with the final loss of the opportunity to return or recapture the money invested in Ukraine, hence the conclusion - they need negotiations like air, because negotiations are an opportunity to arrange a bargain, attempts to arrange them under the cover of concern for Ukraine are underway, one of which was just in Saudi Arabia, then there will be more of these initiatives under various guises, under any pretexts, hiding true intentions save the West and the United States from decline, while they still have some meaning for them, because Ukraine is still a state and a subject of the international community.

          I will add that with all their possibilities to easily remove Zelensky, they, that is, the West and the United States, do not decide, although they can do it radically and quickly with one shot, because for sure he, like the now living Poroshenko, as well as Yushchenko, hid a bunch of compromising evidence on Western and US patrons, who, in the event of their untimely departure from mortal life, will crawl out, and then many heads will roll in Europe and the USA, and not all of them will be virtual.

          The rollout is on. He represents Ukraine in Jeddah, negotiated with Wallace. He is not as ultimatum as Zelensky. The West loves it. Budanov will support him from the same team, according to Zaluzhny, of course, the question. They consider Russia as a factor last. believe that they can force us to sit down at the negotiating table. Yes, we have never put ultimatums on negotiations.

    The former Ukraine took a critical risk when it decided that it was possible to reformat the country through a paid Maidan. The process then became irreversible. hi

      Or maybe Zelensky lost Ukraine, or maybe Zelensky and Ukraine, this is generally a parallel reality.

    As long as the US is playing its game in Ukraine, the West depends on Ukraine no less than Ukraine depends on the West. So the hahly can go as far as they like - this will not affect the supply of weapons in any way.

    Ukrajina nemá co získat spojením se zapadem. Ukrajina by už měla pochopit, že spojením se západem nic nezíská, jen postupně všechno ztratí, včetně sve země! A Polsko je jen nyní falešný kamarád, protože se chystá Ukrajině uloupit část jejího území! Proto Anglie ať drží ústa, i kvůli ní umírá mnoho Ukrajinců ve válce.

      Ukraine has nothing to gain from connecting with the West. Ukraine must already understand now that it will not gain anything from joining the West, it will gradually lose everything, including its country! And Poland is only now a false friend, because it is going to take part of its territory from Ukraine! Therefore, England must keep its mouth shut, because of it many Ukrainians die in the war.

        Yes, this is not England), this is some new kind of Gordon - Bretton Gordon), a retired goat drummer. So many Gordons divorced that, apparently, the oldest, most famous ones have to clarify their origin). But it doesn’t matter at all what both (Gordons) say, this is a purely internal public policy sphere that does not change anything on the outer contour: the dog barks, the caravan moves on, and it can go on for a few more years until the British economy collapses, and what -the time after it collapses - by inertia.

    What nonsense. how annoying an ideal performer can be, who, without the sanction of his Western allies, cannot even sneeze. The only thing he does on his own initiative is begging for money and weapons, maybe that's why he got everyone there. Zelensky does not understand that his Western curators themselves know who, what and how much to give. The ambition of Poland is surprising. The same Ukraine, with the same owners, only to the west. Yes, and with claims to the role of a beloved wife, which give away banal jealousy.
