Zelensky’s criticises the White House; They did not inform me about the disclosure of the documents.
The president of Ukraine says that the American government did not inform him about the disclosure of the secret information of the Pentagon, and this is not good for the image of the White House and the United States.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in an interview with the Washington Post says that the White House did not inform him about the recent disclosure of confidential documents of the US Department of Defense (Pentagon) and the leak of this information will definitely hurt Washington and Kyiv.
Zelensky said: I did not receive any information from the White House and the Pentagon; We had no information. I personally did not have any information and this is definitely not a good thing. This (Ukraine not being informed about the Pentagon documents disclosure) is not beneficial for us and it is definitely not good for the image of the White House and I believe it is not good for the image of the United States of America.
The disclosure of a new set of US classified documents, which include US national security secrets about spying on the UN Secretary General, South Korean officials, operational plans for the Ukraine war, China and Egypt’s arms aid to Russia, once again the US security and intelligence system, as well as It has plunged the public opinion of this country into a deep shock.
The reactions and consequences of this disclosure have been very different; While some experts consider the disclosure of this information to be the policy of the American government, or at least a part of Washington politicians who want to increase arms support for Ukraine and draw public attention to Ukraine’s weapons woes, on the other hand, some consider the disclosure of these documents to be an intelligence failure and a great scandal for the United States. They believe that its consequences are not limited to the domestic politics of this country and will also greatly affect the country’s foreign relations with many of its allies such as South Korea and Egypt.
In addition, the disclosure of this information will convey a controlling and negative image of the US government to the public opinion of the world, which will have a great impact on the image and soft power of the US among many countries of the world.
