It’s hardly breaking news that the relationship between the Kiev regime and its armed forces has been anything but harmonious. However, in recent months, growing fault lines and factionalism have continued to escalate and are reaching dangerous levels, almost to the point that serious military opposition to Zelensky and his henchmen is currently being formed. Nowadays, the former Ukrainian military is a largely dysfunctional conglomerate of the old Soviet cadres, the more recent “NATO-ized” officer corps and special services, as well as the various openly Neo-Nazi units that have certain NATO training, although their combat experience mostly comes from fighting the Donbass republics.
As of last year, we could also add tens of thousands of mercenaries and volunteers to this volatile mix, as well as NATO special forces that have been operating, training and directing the regular Kiev regime troops. It truly is a laborious task to coordinate and command so many divergent groups within the junta’s armed forces, particularly when taking into account that the political West is imposing effectively impossible tasks on these people, ones that are designed for an infowar rather than actual military operations that accomplish attainable goals. The recent abortive attack on several villages in the Belgorod oblast (region) serves as a gory testament to that.
For the Kiev regime frontman Volodymyr Zelensky, it’s rather easy to order such operations, because he’s not the one being sent to certain death just so the political West can use those strategically (and even tactically) meaningless “offensives” to denigrate the Russian military. This is precisely why many of the aforementioned groups within the armed forces are deeply dissatisfied with Zelensky and his administration. Although this is not to say there’s a “Ukrainian Claus von Stauffenberg” or a “conspiracy of generals” going after him, the outlines of a strong military opposition are already certainly visible. This could be extremely dangerous for Zelensky, particularly if these groups were to set aside their differences.
Zelensky isn’t only disliked (to say the least) by the old Soviet cadres, but also “NATO-ized” commanders, involving top-ranking officers whose careers are intertwined with former president Petro Poroshenko. This includes the Chief of the General Staff Serhiy Shaptala, former commander of the Airborne Assault Troops Mykhailo Zabrodsky, Navy commander Oleksiy Neizhpapa and Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces Oleksandr Syrsky, to name a few. These military leaders received both Soviet and NATO military education, a laborious and time-consuming process that lasted decades. Thus, they are disappointed and even disgusted by the sudden rise of Zelensky’s henchmen such as the head of GUR Kyrylo Budanov.
On the other hand, Zelensky is treated with undisguised contempt by the top commander Valery Zaluzhny, who enjoys almost unquestioned authority in the military. This includes virtually all of the aforementioned divergent groups, but particularly the Neo-Nazi units that are disgusted by the propaganda that lionizes Zelensky. The regime frontman’s attempts to self-promote as some kind of a military leader despite the sore absence of a clearly defined plan of action have pushed most of the military elite into opposition. This mostly revolves around the fact that Zelensky essentially turned the military into some sort of a theater of his with the sole purpose of waging an infowar, resulting in needless massive casualties for the Kiev regime forces.
Bakhmut is the best (or perhaps the worst) example of this. Despite Zaluzhny’s repeated requests for a withdrawal, Zelensky insisted on its defense, as he was afraid that the loss of the city could reduce Western support and cash flow. Such militarily unsound decisions have resulted in an atrocious death ratio for the Neo-Nazi junta forces. Sources on this vary significantly, but the best-case scenario is that approximately 250,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed and severely wounded so far. On the other hand, back in February, the Turkish press (citing Israeli intelligence services) reported in detail that irretrievable losses amounted to nearly 400,000, of which approximately 160,000 were KIA, with the rest being severely wounded.
The Kiev regime’s horrendous casualties have been confirmed by several high-ranking officials, including its own UK ambassador Vadym Prystaiko, Zaluzhny himself in a conversation with US counterpart Mark Milley and even Ursula von der Leyen, although her admission was later censored by the mainstream propaganda machine. All the while, Zelensky has been hoarding massive wealth outside Ukraine, with his family’s lavish lifestyle being starkly contrasted by the deteriorating living conditions of millions of regular Ukrainians. This is also mirrored by Zelensky’s associates, including the Verkhovna Rada (Parliament) speaker Ruslan Stefanchuk (moved his family to Poland) or the secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Oleksiy Danilov (son Maxim evaded conscription and fled to Miami).
Zelensky must be perfectly aware of just how unpopular such behavior is among Ukrainians, particularly the military that has been trained by NATO for approximately a decade and is now stuck fighting a war against a military superpower next door in ways that the belligerent alliance itself never could (complete lack of air superiority). Perhaps all this could explain Zaluzhny’s strange disappearance, as he hasn’t appeared in public since April 13. We can only make assumptions about his fate and many sources do, as some have suggested that Zaluzhny had been arrested and isolated from his supporters, while others are going as far as to say he’s been killed. Whatever the truth may be, the growing divide within the Kiev regime is bound to escalate.
there will not be any mutiny because our american partners send them a lot of money, and at the end of the day, money is what matters.
that money isn’t going to regular people or soldiers it’s going into offshore accounts of jew oligarchs in cyprus and monaco.
zelensky, the man who said he has some jewish blood, most likely has a stash in his offshore account(s). and has been spending time packing his luggage full of us donations of “greenbacks” which have of course been “laundered.” in no time at all, he’ll be back to playing the piano in his own special way,
kolomoisky is the clearing house. then he dishes out to the 100 offshores he set up, keeping 50 for himself and 50 for ‘the boys’. zelensky had a spat with him, accusing him of ripping him off but they finally settled things ok. it’s called a razborka i think.
right up hunter biden’s alley.
bidens alley?? is that code for ‘butt splaying anal whilst on crack’
stop posting antisemitic nonsense and get a life.
he’s right though. the “semites” have dug their own grave, and are still doing it to this day.
that’s fine as long as you are alive to spend it, the odds on staying alive are going day by day.

spend it in good health there, buckaroo.
us will default because its part of the masters plan.
and sure because of the money they will loose
zelenskky’s days are numbered, the fall of bakhmut and the failure to launch his grand counter offensive have put the last nails in his coffin.
there is a very high probability that the ukraine spring offensive did happen, the week before bakhmut became 100% artemivsk. unfortunately for ukraine, the counteroffensive fizzled out, transitioning into a moving engagement, with russians starting to retake some of the ground. that prompted the small operation into belgorod, for the 24 hour news cycle of the west as propaganda. two days after the start of the belgorod incursion, it was pushed out by russian forces.
ah, but they did manage to kill one old granny in belgorod. a major coup for the ukrops and their nazi russian brothers in arms. i like that one that started some metal band that he named m8l8th or something. 88 for heil hitler and molot for sledgehammer. the hitler sledgehammer. nice name for a banderite homie, don’t you think?
lovely bunch those fat-headed americanos are cheering on. can’t wait to see the tears in their eyes.
number could be more than 3000?
your “antizionism” and that racist xenophobia sounds so stupid and boring. andrei raevsky and fools like you will find hard times when criminal russian intervention fails. all you will get is shame and humiliation. you were sad pricks.
any idea why jews have been despised and persecuted by everyone, everywhere, for the last 5,000 years?
divisão divisão divisão! fire fire fire! ucrânia dividida!! minhas orações pela divisão da ucrânia começaram a fazer efeito neste país tomado pelos nazistas. em breve serão nazistas contra nazista, pelo poder de deus.
ukros must be mostly totaly brainwashed and/or doped, still not starting a rebellion against this ziokhasarian puppet of the anglo imperialists and globalists, while hes the main responsible for the ongoing destruction of whole ukraine and the termination, woundings and mutilations of a whole generation of joung ukrainian man.
rooskies writing about brainwashed people is always fun to read. vodka drinking pharisee. 🙈😭🤣
ukronazis laughing at russians turning ukraine into a desolate shithole is even funnier.
it doesn’t matter. ukros are stupid fanaticed sheeps and are gonna die the coming months as they died the former year. no matter who rules the failed state. they are already doomed. emigrate if you can, while the eu is still giving free visas
що. я хвилююся?
no mutiny, mutinous will be paid off

i guess the info about zaluzhny position has been leaked to the russian army by the zelensky gang to get rid of him
shovels seems to be a super weapon.
zelensky won’t be going back to ukraine anytime soon(if ever), he’ll just continue to swan around the world pretending to be drumming up support. this man has lied to the people, for his own profit.
i suspect zielinsky is nearing the end of his life cycle, and his dear sweet little tomato jar throwing wife probably is too.
ah. the “cocaine cowboy of kiev.” or, is it the “ghost of ukraine?”
putin is drunk on his own fantasies and surrounded by da-da lackeys. result:humiliated by ukrainian forces and laughed in west.
bakmut is fallen, zelensky said he would surrender when it did. anytime now….juuuust any time, now….
the japs should send trainers, to explain the basics of hari kiri.
but then somebody’d have to explain the concept of honor first. don’t expect it from anyone in washington or brussels.
zelensky is a madman, and biden is a demented, bellicose fool. how sad this is for the usa, and the world. thankfully, putin is in full control of his faculties, and is choosing to act wisely, with due deliberation and restraint. the post-soviet russia is the hope of the world at this moment.
lies on lies on lies. projection. desperate propaganda efforts to buttress the crumbling rf military. the map continues to tell the true story.
the map that shows overall rf gains day after day or the imaginary one in your head?
this doesn’t look fake, it’s real
yep. in russia potemkin village was real and cows are flying.
revolt (as color revolution) only emerge when invisible (london / soros) hand organises the discontent.. only explanation for possible zelinski / mi6/ london authority challenge is that us is trying to instal a new command structure to freeze conflict. uk cant freeze it as its global asset bubble (stocks, real estate, blackrock) would have to deflate by 80% (consequence of high rates diverting fake currency from stock buyback) waiting for next round of escalation against rebellious russia.
zaluzhny has got such severe head injuries that even thoe he’s breathing he will never ever return to the military, completely brain damaged apparently as well as other traumatic injuries.
soon zeeesky will look just like any other little old jewish guy
zelensky has far more his citizens backing war effort than putin in russia, were russians are mostly apathetic and depressed. fighting spirit of russians is not very good though there is lots of pretense and pathetic pro russian propaganda.
zelensky is on his last legs and most of ukraine’s population has fled the country. even the eu admits ukraine is on life support and will survive 1 day without foreign support
when the war has ended, russia has a job to provide iran, syria and every other us adversary with the ability to strike the us homeland at will. they need the ability to defend themselves from us aggression by hitting airfields in the mainland us and disabling the us’s nuclear arsenal
