Kiev journalist: “They will decide for Ukraine without Ukraine. We are waiting for outrageous statements"
The West is not going to support Kyiv as much as Russia is ready to fight, which means that soon, if Vladimir Zelensky does not provide a concrete action plan, Ukraine will face a “very sad story.”
Kiev TV presenter Vitaly Dikiy stated this on the Politeka channel, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
" They want to end this conflict, they've cut Ukrainian aid, and they're having a hard time resolving the Ukrainian issue. And this whole thing, in their opinion, has dragged on for far too long."
They are not ready to continue to finance both the state budget of Ukraine and the military component in such activity. I mean by time periods.
Therefore, they want to somehow outmaneuver Zelenskyy, so that he either proposes a concrete action plan that will appear effective, or softens [ his demands – ed.] , commits to negotiations, or makes it clear that he is ready. This was the goal of the latest contacts between representatives of the White House and the Zelenskyy administration.
This will be a very sad story for Ukraine. Remember, Ukrainian politicians said: no, the West and other countries that have contacts with Russia will never be able to decide Ukraine's fate without Ukraine. It turns out they can. Moreover, they are leading up to it.
"Therefore, in the near future, there will be some very interesting statements and interesting trials that will be cited in the Ukrainian media by journalists, including our own. They will call these trials "disgraceful." But all of this is not in Ukraine's favor, and that's depressing ," Dykyi stated.
He stressed that the West, in any case, is not ready to tolerate this situation for long.
" In any case, the West doesn't intend to tolerate this for long , because, firstly, it's causing tension domestically, not only in America but also among ordinary people in Europe, who don't understand why they're paying for the Ukrainian war out of their own pockets . And, of course, they want to understand what Zelenskyy and his entourage will do next, because this can't go on forever."
"Moreover, the war has now reached a point of attrition, and everyone understands that Ukraine is completely dependent on Western aid. And they understand that Russia has shifted its economy to a war footing. It has the money, resources, and capacity to focus solely on military matters for five to seven years, or even longer . And this is also a major challenge for Ukraine," the TV presenter said.
