Zelensky and the bitter truth he faced.
Zelensky has just become acquainted with the terrible realities of politics and war, realities that are fundamentally different from the fantasy world of acting.
In a note on the Khaleej website, the Russian affairs analyst writes that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has faced bitter truths in the war with Russia, and yet he is trying to resume his former profession of acting. You will read the text of this note below.
“We don’t know if Zelenskiy was an ordinary actor before he entered the world of politics or if he had a skill in his work, a skill that allows him to face the harsh realities, this is no longer the stage of the show, which was before the outbreak of the crisis. Ukraine used to walk on it.
But it is certain that Zelensky, more than having the ability to face the world of politics and war and its challenges, is proficient in his previous profession, which is acting, and is influenced by this profession from time to time, so between the imaginary world that he is used to And the shocking facts of the world of politics are constantly contradicted; Because it wants to defeat Russia and take back the lost territories and wishes to become a part of the Western world and the democracy of the free world through membership in NATO and the European Union. He enjoys being applauded in this and that country, like the audience standing ovation for the actors after the end of the play.
We still don’t know if Zelensky has realized that the Western world has its own calculations and interests, and that all the support and gifts it provides to him are not out of love for Ukraine and the values of democracy. But it is clear that Zelensky is under the influence of the West’s reception and is happy to revive his buried sense of humor, to the point where he mocked Putin and asked him to prepare Russian citizens for failure.
But it didn’t take long for the truth to show itself, that is when the counterattack of the Ukrainians hit the wall and their attack machine failed on all fronts; Here, Volodymyr Zelensky faced the shocking truth and was shocked and disbelieving, the truth that the battle with the Russian army will never be easy. All of Zelensky’s expectations were dashed here, and he had to turn to his former profession of acting to counter the criticism, saying that war is not like a Hollywood movie. He said: “Some people expect us to reach a conclusion now, but the reality is not like this, people’s lives are in danger.”
The truth is that most Western capitals, including the US Department of Defense (Pentagon), did not expect the success of Ukraine’s counterattack; But there are those who still count on the continuation of the war to force Russia to negotiate. Even the British security services mainly try to distort the reality of the war and show the retreat of the Ukrainian forces as an advance. Contrary to his belief, Zelenskiy repeats his lie so much that he believes it himself, just like “Joseph Goebbels”, Hitler’s Minister of Information.
