Iron Felix,
Ukraine has a serious problem that the media may be overlooking. The worse possible person to cross swords with Putin may be occupying the seat of the Ukrainian Presidency. Think for a moment. Lets say a serious existential crisis is confronting the US; imagine for a second that the White House is occupied by a Charlie Chaplin, or a Luis de Funes, or a Eddie Murphy, or a Pee Wee Herman!
What got me thinking was that it was impressing upon me more and more that Vladimir Aleksandrovich Zelensky lately has been acting less and less like the Titan Ukrainians hope will pry them loose from Putin's iron grip. As a matter of fact Volodymyr has been running around in a confused fashion like a chicken that just had its head chopped off. He rushed off to Turkey, rushed off to France, will rush off to the White House if senile Joe will let him. Anywhere but Kiev. It is almost as if he already feels the presence of the grim Putin in Kiev. Volodymyr is rattled. He cannot inspire much confidence.
How did Vladimir Aleksandrovich wind up President of Ukraine?
I read the man's curriculum vitae. He has never held office before. The man is a comedienne! A comedienne! A comedienne, a journalist, a clown, a screen writer. That is who Ukrainians, tired of thieves, elected as President! They must have taken leave of their senses. With Putin as neighbour! Ukrainians placed their hopes in Vladimir the comedienne to protect them from Vladimir the ex KGB! Go Figure.
I am convinced Putin took the measure of the man and found him wanting. Volodymyr is an invitation to attack. I am sure Moldova and Belarus be chomping at the bits as well.
