Ukrainian President Zelensky faced protests in Kiev this weekend after a corruption scandal erupted over military procurement and questions about where Western aid has actually gone. Crowds gathered in the capital demanding accountability as frustration grows over corruption, endless mobilization, mounting casualties, and a government that appears increasingly insulated from the suffering of its own people. Russian sources claim the U.S. has been quietly searching for Zelensky’s replacement for months. Former Ukrainian prime minister Nikolay Azarov says American officials have been “actively talking to, meeting and inviting to Washington” alternative figures inside the Kiev government in an effort to gauge who might be the most reliable successor. Given how openly Washington orchestrated the 2014 coup and positioned Zelensky as the West’s wartime figurehead, the idea that they are preparing to swap him out is believable. If these reports are accurate, Zelensky may be preparing to leave Ukraine for good. With public support collapsing, corruption scandals multiplying, and the military situation deteriorating, Washington may be ready to install a new leader more willing to follow its directives. Sources tell Redacted that he may be looking to seek asylum in Greece if the Greeks will have him. The post Zelensky On The Brink appeared first on Redacted.
