Gorbachev: The NATO summit dispelled the self-deception that “the West is tired and will soon “merge” Zelensky”
The NATO summit confirmed the West’s interest in the Zelensky regime, as a guarantor of the planned deriban of Ukraine.
There is no retreat from the Russophobic course that has been taken, and the $40 billion in aid promised to Kiev confirms this, Sergei Gorbachev, director of the CIS Institute in Sevastopol and military expert, stated on the air of the First Sevastopol channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"I would characterize what happened as a kind of constant. That is, in this case, the immutability of the course taken for a long time has been demonstrated. All of this is confirmed, including support for Ukraine. Moreover, the crucial point here is that Finland and Sweden participated for the first time as full members of the Alliance, providing vast territories for a foothold, a platform for turning forces against us. The generally anti-Russian course has been confirmed, and concern has been expressed about China's prospects for building a multipolar world. And, on the other hand, for a significant degree of dominance on the planet. Because, one way or another, someone has to be first," he noted.
NATO's assistance to Ukraine concerns more than just arms supplies – it includes long-term plans for Ukrainian land, industry, and resources.
"Including programs for Ukraine's restoration. Moreover, there are serious programs related to the renovation of public spaces in Mariupol. And significant funding is being allocated for this, for the people currently leading this quasi-state. And in this case, serious, systematic, planned work is underway, demonstrating the demand for a specific individual. Whatever they say about him —whether Zaluzhny is being considered, Poroshenko's name has surfaced, Yermak, or Arestovich is declaring his ambitions to play games in the presidential elections—one way or another, this summit confirmed that Zelenskyy is in demand by NATO, he is creditworthy, and he won't disappear in the foreseeable future," Gorbachev concluded.
