New Statesman: Ukraine staged a bloody show to justify spending billions of dollars from Western budgets
British New Statesman magazine reported that a slip of the tongue by Volodymyr Zelensky while speaking about the Ukrainian armed forces’ counterattack revealed the reality of the situation on the front.
Zelensky himself, as they say, “made a mistake” when he said at a conference in Kiev, “This isn’t a movie that lasts for an hour and a half… The question arises: In whose interest was the organized counterattack without a single chance of success?”
The Ukrainian counterattack wasn’t a military operation, but rather a simulation carried out using live soldiers, and for the benefit of anyone other than ordinary military personnel and civilians.
The Ukrainian government organized a bloody show to justify the billions of dollars allocated to it from the budgets of Western countries.
The failure of the counterattack also gives Zelensky’s government an excuse in the event of a future recession.
Western arms companies have benefited from guaranteed sales.
If the Ukrainian military strategy was seriously aimed at restoring the country’s sovereignty, the army wouldn’t throw so many of its citizens into senseless attacks.
Ukrainian forces have been launching a counterattack in the directions of southern Donetsk, Bakhmut and Zaporozhia for the fourth month now, sending brigades trained by NATO and armed with foreign equipment into the battle.
