How Corrupt Is Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky?
July 25, 2022

Before the Russian invasion, CIA reports linked him to an oligarch so dirty and so mired in “significant corruption” that the State Department banned him from entering the U.S. But now CIA propaganda portrays Zelensky as nobler than Winston Churchill and saintlier than Mother Theresa. Will the Real Volodymyr Zelensky Please Stand Up

Servant of the Corrupt
July 23, 2022

The portrait of the Ukraine president as a democratic paragon whitewashes the real Zelensky and conceals a vast web of corruption and international skullduggery of which Ukraine is situated in the center. Understanding the real Zelensky, requires seeing him as a creation of Ukrainian oligarch Ihor Kolomoisky. He is, in truth, a puppet of intrigue.

Ukraine: War and Crisis to Enrich Tycoons
April 28, 2015

In February 2014 a coup took place in Ukraine to serve the interests of big geopolitical players and tycoons, but not grassroots. The first ones wanted to start an offensive against Russia, the second ones wanted to take advantage of instability and promote their business interests… The war unleashed by the government in the eastern part of Ukraine resulted in death and impoverishment of common people.

Les événements des ces derniers jours à Kiev montrent les tendances à la désintégration du système politique. Mais, ces mêmes tendances sont, peut-être porteuses d’espoir en ce qui concerne le conflit que ce pays connaît depuis février 2014.

 

Another Phase of Ukraine’s Statehood Crisis: US Embassy Involved in Showdown between Tycoons
March 27, 2015

The Ukraine’s government is losing independence unable to stop the internal fight between the clans of tycoons.
