The fact that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is an absolute dilettante in politics creates an additional threat of an escalation of the conflict in Donbass.
This point of view was expressed by analysts of the American newspaper The New York Times, reports the PolitExpert portal. They noted that Zelenskiy’s inexperience and strange behavior is causing more and more questions and concerns. They can lead to very serious consequences for Ukraine.
The journalists noted that he commits many reckless steps and any of them can cause an armed conflict. The NYT is worried that Russia will be drawn into it, which as a result will affect relations between Moscow and Washington.
It is worth noting that Zelensky, as head of state, continues the course set by his predecessor, Petro Poroshenko. Thus, “Russian aggression” remains a favorite topic and the most reliable justification for all failures. The recently approved Strategic Defense Bulletin sees it as a central issue.
