much sense in this press conference was not and could not be due to the lack of any achievements, which you can tell. So, on the eve of the independent Ukrainian edition of “Country” has spent audit of the execution Zelensky his campaign promises – those which were to become laws. The account was not in favor of the President: of the 21 points of his program conditionally deemed made only 3. But steadily falling rating is only 33 percent support of the population at the beginning of may, up from 73 percent a year ago – Zelensky was forced to remind the Ukrainians that it is just “an honest, decent man who this country”, and not a copy of the predecessor.
But his answers speak for themselves. Here, cleaned from the husk of verbal speech Zelensky on the prospects of settlement in the Donbass, the Minsk agreement for his priority, because that is the key to anti-Russian sanctions, but he is willing to any other formats (apparently had in mind the old idea of Poroshenko’s involvement in the negotiations of the signatories of the Budapest Memorandum). Although the Minsk agreement is the priority, but to fulfill their part of the political establishment, because he did not like. Therefore, Ukraine has a “plan B” and even a “plan C”, which Kiev like more, but Zelensky on them yet won’t tell anyone. Otherwise he waits for a meeting with Vladimir Putin at any time.
And this is to the letter what in different formulations for five years, said Poroshenko. On the situation in the Donbas Zelensky also lied in the style of a predecessor, and is that not repeated known – “our children will go to schools and kindergartens – they will sit in cellars”. “We do not provoke. We are fighting for our country. We do not shoot at Ukrainians. And if the other side stopped firing, all would be over. But they don’t know what will happen to them”, – he said, referring to the lack of Amnesty for militias, directly prescribed in the Minsk agreements that it’s not going to perform.
Assume that Zelensky don’t know how updated the Ukrainian delegation in the trilateral contact group (TAG) takes any initiatives to disengagement and a political settlement. Or does not know that according to the Joint center for control and coordination of ceasefire (SCCC), during his presidency, the result of shelling and sniper fire in the national republics were killed 6 civilians and wounding 72, whereas “controlled territory” of victims among the civilian population there. And good would be the case, if he made an honest mistake and did not know about the real situation worse, when the President was a lie.
Just a smile would cause his concern for the coronavirus in the Donbass and Russia, about which Zelensky is “real information”, and everyone living in Ukraine sochumthere. But when thereupon he declared that Ukraine – “the master of sports on struggle against coronavirus” and could serve as an example for all the neighbors, it was the time to grieve. The fact is that from the point of view of statistics who, led by Zelensky country – a kind of black box. With 42 million “official” population to may 20 conducted less than 250 thousand tests (for comparison, in Russia – 7.5 million in the U.S. – the 12.6 million), and one in five sick or deceased physician. And even the journalists of “Associated Press”, passed recently by the Ukrainian provincial hospitals, compared the Ukrainian health care with the worst examples in Africa.
Also Zelensky, who promised the people of only one your time, now aiming for a second – “I’ll think I have something”, and the answer to the question of infringement of the Russian-speaking Ukrainians reduced to wrangling with the journalist, saying that once he asked the question in Russian, so no problem. This now sure the Russian starring in Russian TV series “servant of the people”, won the elections thanks to the Russian-speaking regions.
unfortunately, was not asked in the lead the day before a press-conferences in social media – “Why did you go presidential?”. But the universal answer to all questions he gave: “I do not understand what happened.” And although the question was about growing regional opposition, Zelensky can use this wording in any unclear situation, of which, judging by the press conference, is its political existence.
