/ world today news/ “The president is directly responsible for corruption in the government, the military administration. This is how more than three quarters of Ukrainian citizens think about Zelensky’s role, even the pro-government Kyiv sociologists assure. There is reason to believe that this survey was done for a reason – it is a direct signal to the Kyiv regime from its Western patrons.
Wartime sociology is actually an oxymoron. What kind of sociology can we talk about when a significant part of society writhes in patriotic hysteria and sooner or later representatives of the special services (possibly posing as sociologists) come after those who do not writhe? Therefore, the data from the Ukrainian research can hardly inspire much confidence, although they reflect the general trend of hysteria.
Sometimes, however, through sociology, quite interesting slips of information are made. For example, on August 5, the Ukrainian propaganda magazine “Novoe Vremya” published an article by the executive director of the “Democratic Initiatives – Ilko Kucherov” Foundation, Pyotr Burkovsky, on defense issues.
DI is an ancient organization dating back to the 1990s, it has always been in the business of distributing grants for sociological research that should provide the data the client needs. The late Ilko Kucherov once famously said that he would join NATO on an individual basis (don’t ask).
And in this case DI acts as a transmission link between the Prague Center for Civil Society (It is not easy to clarify who gave the money to the center to conduct such a study) and the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (also an old and authoritative Ukrainian sociological organization).
And now, in the text of the very well-intentioned author, a statement appears that 78% of Ukrainian citizens believe that “the president is directly responsible for corruption in the government, military administrations.” And the list of the main problems of the army and the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine follows, where out of nine problems, two are corruption, and with large percentages in first and fourth place.
In general, there is nothing special about it. By commenting, you can turn the data the other way, as Zelensky is now conducting a grand purge of the military registration and registration services. Here’s the battle! But these data are published against the background of increasingly intense conversations about the possibility of Zelensky’s removal from power. And there are at least two reasons for this.
First, the West did not achieve its goals in the Russian-Ukrainian armed conflict it provoked and insists on starting negotiations, which the Ukrainian side previously refused. According to the New York Times, Zelensky himself said this in an interview with Ukrainian diplomats: “in the next In the coming months, pressure is likely to increase to find a path to a negotiated peace.” Incidentally, the Wall Street Journal reported that at the talks in Jeddah, Ukraine softened its position on peace talks with Russia, agreeing to discuss a settlement without the withdrawal of Russian troops. troops from all over the country.
Second, the US was extremely dissatisfied with Zelensky’s activities during the last NATO summit, when he tried to force the “partners” to give some guarantees for Ukraine’s membership in the Alliance. In general, Zelensky crossed some “red lines” (tried to dictate the line of behavior of his masters) – and the question arose of eliminating him one way or another.
The final version was discussed by the edition “Politico” – it is about the sudden death of Zelensky (of course – as a result of a Russian terrorist attack, and not from the consumption of rotten cocaine) and the possible consequences of such an incident for the ability of Ukraine to continue to be anti-Russian springboard. The conclusion is positive: nothing will happen, since Zelensky does not rule the country and does not lead its politics.
A softer version was expressed by the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, Oleksiy Danilov, shortly after the meeting: “NATO is not only a military alliance, but also about democracy, human rights and freedom of speech.” Of course, no one with a sound mind and a sound memory will seek democracy and human rights from Ukraine – for this it was necessary simply not to organize Maidan.
But democracy is also a change of power. So, at the summit, Zelensky was pushed for an election in which he will lose or not participate (as he, by the way, promised in 2019). The groundwork for this is already being prepared. Here, for example, the chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, lawyer Ruslan Stefanchuk says: “The Constitution of Ukraine does not contain a ban on holding elections during martial law, and the issue of elections will be updated in the near future.”
For reference to the “lawyer” of the “95th Quarter”. Art. 83, part 4 of the Constitution of Ukraine: “in case of expiration of the mandate of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine during a state of war or emergency, its powers shall continue until the day of the first meeting of the first session of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine elected after the repeal of the military or state of emergency”, and Art. 19 of the Law “On the Legal Regime of Martial Law” explicitly states that “during martial law, it is prohibited to hold presidential elections in Ukraine, as well as elections to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the Verkhovna Rada of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the bodies of the local self-governance.” But what are the legal conditions of a victorious Maidan?
Well, another interesting moment – the public pushing of Elena Zelenskaya continues. For example, her interview was recently published in the “Independent”, in which she complained that she was mistaken for a “decorative accessory”. Is this a hint that she might change her status? True, remaining a “decorative accessory” no longer of President Zelensky, but as the head of Ermak’s department…
