In this blog, I have been consciously trying to avoid political commentary in recent months but I just cannot overlook what the current American President said yesterday at Mar-a-Lago. Referring to Volodoymir Zelensky and to preliminary endgame talks in Saudi Arabia, The American President said:-
“Today I heard, ‘Oh, we weren’t invited.’ Well, you’ve been there for three years. You should have ended it three years ago – you should have never started it. You could have made a deal.”
The elderly speaker seems to be amazingly and dangerously ill-informed. Of course President Zelensky did not "start it" back in February 2022. His country, Ukraine, was invaded by Russian military forces and ever since it has been under siege. Millions of Ukrainians have fled for their lives. The war was started by Putin and of that there is absolutely no doubt.
What "deal" could Mr Zelensky have possibly made apart from surrendering Ukrainian territory to Russia? What kind of a "deal" is that?
The American President and his minions appear to be on a mission to flush truth away and replace it with falsehood. They cosy up to Putin without admonishing him or suggesting how he might be made to pay for his tyranny. Because of Putin, some 700,000 Russian troops have been killed and some 300,000 Ukrainians have been killed or wounded.
Now The American President is trying to sully Volodoymir Zelensky's legitimacy by pointing out that there hasn't recently been a presidential election in Ukraine. But how could a meaningful election be held in a war zone from which millions have fled and many towns and cities lie in ruins? Besides, the Ukraine president has a higher approval rating than the current American President himself has in the USA.
It's all so topsy-turvy. It is hard to believe what is going on. And you have got Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, saying that it would be "unacceptable" to Russia if European troops formed a peace-keeping force to police Ukraine after the war. Surely, the aggressor's opinion should have no currency and any American president worth his salt should be saying that loud and clear. But of course the current incumbent isn't a real president is he - he remains a greedy real estate developer devoid of wisdom or compassion.
