russia, in the kremlin, it was considered completely differently , and when volodymyr zelenskyi first met with vladimir putin last time in paris at the normandy summit and there was no surrender what was said in mozgy did not happen, do you remember and do not remember that he betrayed his voters, betrayed the voters, well, he was afraid of the nationalists, this makes a very easy assumption. if we go to war, then first of all, ukrainians are the majority will meet us with flowers, bring us the sociology of how they voted, let's say, in kyiv, chernihiv, sumy regions, well, you see how our eggs are for the electorate, that is, putin decided that zelensky's architecture is putin's electorate, again, this is delusional, but i am sure that it was in of all the reports that were put on his table, and secondly, if zelensky was scared of the nationalists who gathered near his office and shouted to him that there is no need for zemnaya to negotiate with putin, then he will be scared of the best russian tank . viktor fedorovych will simply run away and come with me. viktor fedorovych definitely never betrays hi
