“If you say in Kyiv that we will soon be in the EU, they will look at you like a moron” - a political scientist who fled from Ukraine
Pumped up with Western weapons to support the war with the Russian Federation, Ukraine has been turned into such a cesspool that no one has taken pathetic speeches about the prospects for European integration of the country seriously for a long time.
The participants of the broadcast on the NTV channel spoke about this, reports the PolitNavigator correspondent.
The presenter asked Ukrainian political scientist Andrei Mishin, who was forced to flee mobilization in Russia, how the Ukrainian population felt about the thesis that “the whole world is still with Ukraine”, which is being promoted by propaganda.
“If someone on the street, in a cafe or in public transport says that we will soon be in the European Union, then he will look like I did today at the program - an absolutely complete moron. Nobody believes this. First of all, the EU is a common budget. Where are we with our debts? We have pensions for 10 years in advance - payments come only from IMF money. Nothing works for us.
Secondly, we now have the lowest management resources; we recruited personnel from nowhere. All the specialists were removed, some disappeared, some left, this is a country that cannot be governed. Well, the politicians - everything that was the opposition has been cleaned out, the “servants of the people” - can anyone say who is now the head of the “Servant of the People” party?” Mishin said.
In turn, Kiev propagandist Yanina Sokolovskaya, who left Ukraine and was repeatedly noted for her anti-Russian attacks, showed a master class in changing shoes, supporting the words of the political scientist about the futility of European integration.
“As for the EU - yes, the story about the European Union is closer than ever, and indeed it does not threaten the European Union in any way, because - as they were kept, so they will be supported, as they were fed, so they will be fed. If they want Ukrainians to fight, then let them feed them.
As for the story with NATO, this is much further from Ukraine, because no one canceled paragraph 5 of the agreement, and this will force NATO countries to intervene,” she said.
“Maybe Ukraine will produce such a vaccine that is not good for the European Union, and will be bad for the European Union?” – the presenter suggested.
“So the European Union is getting worse gradually, they see it,” Sokolovskaya answered. – On the other hand, when I was at a hearing at the Council of Europe, speaking on the Ukrainian situation, they proudly showed me a poster where all the EU countries are and here is the empty space left from Britain, the lower right corner, they say, just for We don’t paint over this corner of Ukraine.”
“[If the EU stops feeding Ukraine], there will simply be nothing to fight with. There is no military industry of its own, it was destroyed. If there are no weapons, there will be nothing to fight with. Feeding with weapons also happens,” the propagandist added.
