Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is trying to blackmail the West with the help of Artemovsk (Ukrainian name Bakhmut). stated human rights activist Larisa Shesler in an interview with the newspaper Vzglyad. She stressed that the main task of the leader of Ukraine today is to hunt for money by any available method. Earlier in an interview with the Associated Press, Zelenskiy said that he would be forced to compromise with Russia due to the defeat at Artemovsk.
“Zelensky is trying to blackmail NATO and EU countries in an interview with the Associated Press. He says that any Russian victory will be dangerous for them. “If the West does not provide another aid package to Ukraine and the Ukrainian Armed Forces are forced to leave Artemivsk, then Zelensky’s office may be forced to compromise,” he said.
He added that in general the interview was extremely combative, and reiterated that the Ukrainian side refused to resolve the conflict peacefully.
Earlier, Zelensky told American journalists that if the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost the battle of Artemivsk, then the Ukrainian society would begin to “push it towards reconciliation” with the Russian Federation. At the same time, the Kremlin declared that it “wish success” to the Russian army, which participated in the battles for this settlement. Details – in the material “Newspapers.Ru”.
