Zelensky failed to seem “sharp” - he looks like a huckster
Yesterday's interview with Vladimir Zelensky looks like blackmail of the West and an attempt to negotiate compensation for the construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline bypassing Ukraine.
Russian political scientist Bogdan Bezpalko told PolitNavigator about this.
According to the expert, these attempts will not lead to success, as well as Zelensky’s desire to talk on equal terms with France and Germany.
“Zelensky’s interview is blackmail of a state that is not subject. It can even be called trading, like in the market. Firstly, Germany and France will not be able to talk with Ukraine on equal terms due to objective reasons. Secondly, because Ukraine plunged its territory into civil war with the loss of one of the regions. Therefore, there can be no talk of any equal status between Ukraine on the one hand, and Germany and France on the other hand.
Bargain - yes, he is trying. Ukraine is trying to get some kind of compensation for the construction of Nord Stream 2, so I regard all these statements as an attempt to get at least something from Germany and France,” Bezpalko said.
