According to Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), the US intends to launch a campaign to undermine Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in order to replace him with a more malleable person. According to the agency, former Interior Minister Arsen Avakov is being considered for the job.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the SVR stated that “the American elite” is becoming increasingly unhappy with Zelensky as politicians on both sides of the aisle begin to “doubt the targeted spending of billions of dollars in military aid to Kiev.”
Officials stated that Zelensky is engaging in “crazy steps” that threaten escalation “far beyond Ukraine,” adding that Kiev “has moved to feverish action” as Zelensky tries to stay in power after the end of his official term in May.
replace him with a more malleable person
Even more malleable? That would have to be a literal jellyfish.
Oh great, Ukranian Hitler
“official term” lmao
Worrying tbh that they want someone even more malleable than “peace at any cost” Zelensky, who immediately became a US puppet after the final Ukrainian election.
Why are we voicing the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service?
Why not? Who else has a better ability and interest to uncover and expose what the US is plotting in Ukraine? Doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s true but it’s a possibility and one that has been discussed by independent media for a while now. It’s interesting to have a state source say this explicitly.
Could this just be information warfare? Of course, but that goes without saying about anything that any side says in a war, and that includes the western mainstream media which for all intents and purposes serves as the mouthpiece of the intelligence community and the military industrial complex.
You’d find me complaining here too if I saw posts by western mainstream media, but fair enough I see your point. I just say we should take russian state apparatus propaganda (or any state propaganda for that matter) which a handful of salt
Yes I did, I’m a Marxist-Leninist, and I don’t see why we’d parrot the viewpoints of a right-wing imperialist country as much as I wouldn’t quote the US defense department or the IDF
Russia is unfortunately a reich-wing country, but to call it imperialist is foolish or dishonest.
I wouldn’t quote the US defense department
It’s completely up to you who you want to quote or not quote. But i just want to point out that this community’s posts include a wide variety of sources, some of which are western mainstream media (which undoubtedly get most of their talking points from the DOD, CIA and State Department), others are Russian sources, others Chinese, etc., etc. If you want to be informed it is good to draw from as many different sources as possible, even ones that you strongly disagree with ideologically. It is not advisable to live in an information echo chamber, rather you should learn to critically analyze the media you consume taking into account their biases and motivation.
