As I explain in this interview, I see the removal of Zelensky foretold by the radical change in mainstream Western coverage of the war ever since the incursion into Kursk. We now get in The Financial Times, The New York Times, the BBC and similar media very detailed, correct and damning information about the desperate situation of the Ukrainians on the Donbas front lines now that their very best, most war hardened and NATO trained brigades were sent off to Kursk to fight and die. The Russian estimates of Ukrainian casualties in Kursk running at 8,500 men, with losses of 76 tanks and hundreds of armored personnel carriers and the like – all this is being carried now by Western media. I believe they have been given license by Washington to pin the military disaster on Zelensky’s chest so as to make it more understandable and acceptable when the puppet masters get rid of him. As I also say in this interview, I do not believe that the imminent loss of Donbas by Ukraine by itself spells the end of the war. Kiev still has large numbers of troops, good defenses on the other side of the Dniepr. And the Russians have no appetite for engaging in the conquest of Western Ukraine, which is predominantly populated by Ukrainian speakers who will hate the Russians to their dying day and will be very difficult to govern. Because the conquest of Donbas will not automatically result in the war’s end, the risks of its still escalating to a nuclear exchange between Russia and the European states most implicated in the war, between Russia and the United States remain with us. gilbertdoctorow.com
