Zaluzhny can make a scapegoat out of Zelensky – Bondarenko
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny is preparing to announce that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky is to blame for all the failures of 2023.
Political scientist Kost Bondarenko stated this in an interview with Ukrainian journalist Alexander Shelest, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“If some kind of compromise law [on mobilization] is adopted, then Zaluzhny will have a free hand to say: “They wanted to put all the blame on me for what happened in 2023?
But no, because the president has a parliamentary faction, he has a majority in the Verkhovna Rada. And they could not pass what Ukraine needed, the law on mobilization that was necessary,” Bondarenko said.
He emphasized that Zaluzhny, who is offended by the political leadership, can easily blame Zelensky for all the defeats.
“Zelensky tried to place all the blame for the increased mobilization on Zaluzhny, and Zaluzhny can now blame the president for the failure in 2023.
He won't even talk, he'll just make it clear. And then journalists and experts will speak for him. They will decipher the tone of the words spoken, and perhaps even serve individual words in the right sauce,” the political scientist added.
