“Tell me honestly: a war for two or three generations” – Drozdov attacked Zelensky’s “baritones”
The interview of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valeriy Zaluzhny to the British publication The Economist, where unpopular facts about the situation and losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were voiced, most clearly demonstrated the difference between the real state of affairs and what is said in the official statements of the office of the President of Ukraine.
Lvov propagandist and notorious Russophobe Ostap Drozdov said this on air on the NTA TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“When I saw these speakers in the first days of the war, I almost turned gray, because I saw that the least worthy people were speaking to the people in the most difficult hour of history, who, moreover, did not deserve it at all, were not competent in military conditions and so on. And when I saw the list of those speakers who, with their purring baritone, calmed people who were being bullied - I don’t know what. They wouldn’t have run anywhere anyway, wouldn’t have folded their arms, wouldn’t have ended up in psychiatric hospitals, they would still have adapted to the reality that would have enveloped them anyway.
I believe that in war conditions all these extra relaxations, extra demotivations are more harmful, because they created and are creating the basis for a future emotional hole. “I, nevertheless, take the position that one must always be honest with one’s people, who have already shown the heights of self-organization, self-awareness and patriotism,” Drozdov urged.
According to him, listening to such official statements for Ukrainian society is simply humiliating.
“Speak honestly and frankly, without pressure, but competently say that this is not two or three weeks, but two or three generations, and you must prepare for this, and we will get through this anyway, whether you are ready or not. This is a healthy, mature conversation with society, this is the prerogative of statists. And who continued to be on the hype, who caught clicks and applause and agreed with what they wanted to hear, but should not have heard from the government, in fact, this is the difference,” he reasoned.
“This difference has become very clear just now, when we saw General Zaluzhny’s interview, we just saw this amazing difference between a competent person who knows what he is saying, with all the “blunders” that were from incompetent people, and simply announcers from office of the president,” added the Russophobe.
