Political scientist from Ukraine: Zelensky should have acted like Surovikin
The actions of the Russian authorities in the Kherson region are an example of what the Ukrainian authorities should have done on the eve of February 24.
Ukrainian political scientist Vasily Vakarov stated this on the Rossiya 1 TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The Ukrainian authorities stated: “we knew that there would be an attack, that Russia would take these actions on such and such a date, but we did not want to warn the Ukrainians, because this would cause panic, and then all the roads would be blocked, we would not be able to attack , counterattack, defend.”
What does Khusnullin do? (Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Marat Khusnullin - ed.) what does Surovikin do (Commander of the Northern Military District, General Sergei Surovikin - ed.)? They say - please, we are declaring an evacuation, leave, leave. This means they trust these people. So these people are their people. And the attitude of your authorities and your general is trusting of their population.
If Zelensky said that perhaps there would be such an attack, perhaps there would be fighting, please leave Kharkov, Zaporozhye, Dnieper, and Kiev in an organized manner. Nobody talked about it. The only reason was “we couldn’t announce because the roads would be clogged.” Mistrust.
You (Russians - ed.) now, in addition to military force (unfortunately for me, a citizen of Ukraine), you also demonstrate the principle of trust. Be that as it may, this is an objective picture,” Vakarov said.
