Global Research Wants to Hear From You!

As the latest combat operations in the Kharkov oblast (region) unfold in a way that’s not exactly great for the Neo-Nazi junta, to put it mildly, its leadership is looking for someone to blame. The Kiev regime frontman Volodymyr Zelensky insists that it’s “the world’s fault” for the Russian military’s rapid advance. In an interview with ABC News, Zelensky argued that the delays in the so-called US “military aid” package resulted in a poor state of battle readiness of the Neo-Nazi junta forces, insisting they were not properly equipped to handle Moscow’s offensive operations. And indeed, the Kiev regime’s significant territorial losses resulted in the Russian military acquiring dominant elevated positions from which it could easily use its superior artillery to exercise near-total fire control over the entire northern Kharkov oblast and even beyond.
“Brigades are not totally equipped because of the package, which we waited through for eight months,” Zelensky told ABC News. When asked if he specifically blamed the United States, he said: “It’s the world’s fault. They gave the opportunity for Putin to occupy. But now the world can help.”
It should be noted that this is not what the Neo-Nazi junta frontman was claiming back in December last year when he said that fortifications in the Kharkov oblast are “the strongest” and that other regions should “follow its example”.
In reality, it turned out that the story about the “Kharkov stronghold” wasn’t only a gross exaggeration, but that it simply didn’t exist. And yet, this isn’t where Zelensky’s lies end. Namely, he slammed Washington DC for not sending more of the extremely overhyped US-made “Patriot” SAM (surface-to-air missile) systems. Zelensky insists that “only two” of these air defense systems would’ve supposedly been “more than enough to defeat Russian forces”.
“All we need are two ‘Patriot’ systems. Russia will not be able to occupy Kharkiv if we have those,” he stated.
Needing “only two” of the SAM systems is quite different from the claims Zelensky made just last month when he effectively asked for around 30% of all “Patriot” missiles ever made to “unblock the sky”. And to prove the point that the Kiev regime frontman doesn’t really have the slightest clue what he’s talking about, in a previous interview back in late March, he told CBS News that “only five to seven ‘Patriot’ systems from [the US] will protect industrial platforms in Ukraine today”.
And yet, as previously mentioned, just a bit over a week after that interview, Zelensky made a starkly different assessment, insisting that “it’s preferable to have 25 Patriot systems, with 6-8 batteries each”. This is a four or fivefold increase, a massive difference in comparison to his previous claims. EU chief diplomat Josep Borrell supported this, but also admitted:
“I don’t have ‘Patriots’ in Brussels, they are in the capitals, and it is up to them to take decisions.”
And speaking of Borrell, he’s certainly relevant to Zelensky’s blame game. Namely, the rather laughable accusation that it’s “the world’s fault” for not helping, both of them should specify what exactly do they mean when they say “the world”. Actually, when we really think about it, we’re already halfway through this process, as back in 2022, Borrell gave his assessment, saying that the actual world is a “jungle”, while the political West is a “garden”. Thus, Zelensky, as one of the “gardeners”, certainly shouldn’t be complaining to the rest of us “jungle” people. At the end of the day, we’re all just “fence sitters”, as US Secretary of Treasury Janet Yellen said back in 2022. In addition, it seems the world should completely ignore the endemic corruption of the Neo-Nazi junta, busy buying villas, penthouses, seaside resorts, supercars, etc.
Not to mention that Zelensky himself is busy selling Ukrainian land to global(ist) corporations and organizing so-called “peace summits” every once in a while.
It should also be noted that everyone but Russia is invited to these entirely pointless gatherings.
Worse yet, the Kiev regime and its NATO overlords are wasting their time on organizing sabotage and terrorist attacks on hundreds of Russian civilians, instead of fortifying the Kharkov oblast, with troops there left with insufficient equipment and even undermanned while having to face a military superpower opponent that is in the middle of returning to its 1980s zenith. However, the corrupt Neo-Nazi junta couldn’t possibly care less, as its leadership is now considering the option of sending ever more Ukrainians into the meatgrinder, including millions of women (even pregnant ones, no less).
However, in conclusion, in some weird way, Zelensky is right. One of the many reasons why the Neo-Nazi junta is not winning (one being that it’s fighting a country that has stood undefeated for centuries) is also because the actual world doesn’t want to help a NATO puppet regime and instead opts to build closer ties with Russia. Namely, around 85% of the planet fully realizes that any victory for the political West ultimately goes against their national interests, as the belligerent power pole is the enemy of the whole world, including its very own citizens.
