The conflict between the Kiev regime’s former Chief of the General Staff Valery Zaluzhny and its frontman Volodymyr Zelensky has been brewing for well over a year and a half. Fault lines and factionalism kept escalating, reaching a boiling point after the failure of the much-touted counteroffensive. Zaluzhny promised to “never” back down, but on February 8, he did just that. This raises the obvious question, why now? Well, the ongoing developments on the frontlines might be the most obvious answer. The area in and around Avdeyevka, a town some 15 km north/northwest of Donetsk, has been heavily contested since the start of the […] #Featured #UkraineWar #WarZone Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/02/did-zaluzhny-bail-in-the-nick-of-time/?feed_id=9131

Since January 29, reports about the removal of the Kiev regime’s top general Valery Zaluzhny have been spreading like wildfire. Although there hasn’t been any official confirmation, while some outlets of the mainstream propaganda machine even issued a rebuttal, new revelations by informed (albeit anonymous) sources show that the Neo-Nazi junta frontman Volodymyr Zelensky is still serious about removing Zaluzhny. On January 30, the Financial Times, an important part of that same mainstream propaganda machine, but still a somewhat more reputable source, reported that Zelensky is preparing to replace his top general. Even the FT admitted that the controversial move would be […] #Featured #UkraineWar #WarZone #World Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/01/zelensky-testing-ukrainian-public-with-zaluzhnys-replacement/?feed_id=8599

by Ahmed Adel, Cairo-based geopolitics and political economy researcher Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that military commanders and the political arena are not in the same space, demonstrating that his power is under threat, and not by Moscow, but from within his own ranks. This issue is only amplified by the fact that Zelensky’s Western partners have slowly begun abandoning him, especially since the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7. Ukraine’s commander-in-chief of the General Staff, Valeriy Zaluzhny, has no war plan for 2024 and, therefore, must resign, said Verkhovna Rada deputy Maryana Bezuglaya, deputy head of the National Security […] #Featured #UkraineWar #WarZone #World Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2023/11/zelensky-paranoid-about-the-military-and-warns-commanders-to-stay-out-of-politics/?feed_id=6952

by Ahmed Adel, Cairo-based geopolitics and political economy researcher The former advisor to Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma (1994 to 2005), Oleg Soskin, said on social media on November 13 that the country’s military wants President Volodymyr Zelensky to resign. He suggested that the military leadership will no longer take orders from the president that will result in many deaths for no gain, and this aligns with what other experts have said. In a video, Oleg Soskin recalls that the counteroffensive announced by Zelensky will complete six months in the first week of December without any major progress achieved. Furthermore, the expert pointed out that […] #Featured #Military #UkraineWar #WarZone #World Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2023/11/ukrainian-military-wants-zelensky-to-resign-says-former-adviser-to-the-countrys-president/?feed_id=6652

It is no secret that factionalism and fault lines are major obstacles to the functioning of the Kiev regime. However, in recent days, this matter has become so prevalent that not even the highest echelons of power are bothering to hide it anymore. The Neo-Nazi junta frontman Volodymyr Zelensky is well known (or rather infamous) for (ab)using his position to further the goals of his overlords, all at the expense of the Ukrainian people. The process is so far gone that it is more self-defeating than at any point during his tenure or even that of his Maidan predecessors. In such […] #Featured #Military #UkraineWar #WarZone #World Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2023/11/zelensky-zaluzhny-spat-escalates-as-kiev-regime-and-military-diverge-further-than-ever/?feed_id=6172
