According to Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), the US intends to launch a campaign to undermine Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in order to replace him with a more malleable person. According to the agency, former Interior Minister Arsen Avakov is being considered for the job.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the SVR stated that “the American elite” is becoming increasingly unhappy with Zelensky as politicians on both sides of the aisle begin to “doubt the targeted spending of billions of dollars in military aid to Kiev.”
Officials stated that Zelensky is engaging in “crazy steps” that threaten escalation “far beyond Ukraine,” adding that Kiev “has moved to feverish action” as Zelensky tries to stay in power after the end of his official term in May.
It’s completely up to you who you want to quote or not quote. But i just want to point out that this community’s posts include a wide variety of sources, some of which are western mainstream media (which undoubtedly get most of their talking points from the DOD, CIA and State Department), others are Russian sources, others Chinese, etc., etc. If you want to be informed it is good to draw from as many different sources as possible, even ones that you strongly disagree with ideologically. It is not advisable to live in an information echo chamber, rather you should learn to critically analyze the media you consume taking into account their biases and motivation.
Fair enough, that’s a good perspective. I tend to just ignore lib media propaganda and also ignore russian state apparatus propaganda, but I suppose this is another way to do it
