I would suggest starting to memorize the name of this politician.

He will be remembered in history as one of those who ended the empire.

Yesterday, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken addressed a committee hearing in the

Congressional Foreign Relations Committee. Here is a specific quote:

- We strongly oppose Russia’s attempts to annex Crimea; we strongly oppose Russia’s aggression in the Donbas, in eastern Ukraine. And we strongly support Ukraine and intend to strengthen that support, whether in the areas of security, the economy, or in efforts to strengthen our own democracy.

The key thing I would like to point out is that there should be support in both security and democracy.

Here. People understand that there are two problems. An external threat. And an internal threat.

And the internal threat is the problem of Ukrainian institutions.

When the parliament and the government are run from the President’s Office, it is an institutional failure.

And then the question: How do you like Shmyhal’s government? - I must say - Nothing at all.

From which side of the government? He must be appointed by parliament. And be accountable to him.

But accountability is definitely not providing goodies for deputies (but only those who voted for the budget) through social and economic development programs. Ten million each last year. And thirty somewhere this year.

This is an institutional failure.

And the president’s office itself is run not only by the offices of oligarchs, but from the Kremlin towers too.

This is an institutional failure.

If the Attorney General, instead of helping the American judiciary catch Kolomoisky, helps him get rid of it, it is an institutional failure.

If so to say the most humane Soviet/Ukrainian court in the world covers up for the oligarchs, it is a failure.

Zelensky himself is an institutional failure.

But the Most High has a chance to listen and get help. Not only as an opposition to the external enemy.

But also as an opposition to the internal. And for Zelensky  this is exactly his idea of ​​the greatness.

It’s like for an alcoholic to admit the problem is the first step. Zelensky must admit that he has a manic of greatness.

The main resource that Zelensky needs now is training and consultations from allies, because Yermak will now hand him some imposters in the form of a society.

But he is not ready. His motivation is not the desire to change, but FEAR.

I hope he will be told. And here is the case of the Wagner Group. And someone will be up the creek now.

Moreover. Now, after such words of Blinken, pro-Russian channels will be activated:

- Ah, external management. We are governed. Misfortune never comes alone.

Oh, yes? Do we want to them, but not they to us? To join their club, you must learn to eat with a knife and fork. And do not pick your nose at people. Otherwise, they won’t accept.

But as long as there are people who are a pushover for pro-Russian channels - and thus buy it - Zelensky can be offered.

Volodymyr Oleksandrovych! All you need is to sometimes leave the stage and sit in the hall. And listen carefully not to sociologists, not to Yermak. But to smart people from abroad.

And then change the troupe and on stage. But this time to play for Ukraine!

Only it’s hard to believe that he will succeed.
