The West has launched a public campaign to discredit Vladimir Zelenskyy in order to eventually get rid of him, former US Armed Forces intelligence officer Scott Ritter said in an Ask the Inspector broadcast posted on social network X.
Earlier, The Wall Street Journal wrote that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy personally approved the plan to undermine the Nord Stream and Nord Stream-2 gas pipelines. According to the publication, the operation was planned using a small yacht, as well as several divers.
“They will get rid of Zelenskyy. I think this is the beginning of a public discrediting of Zelenskyy so that he cannot stay in power,” Scott Ritter noted.
Ritter pointed out that the beginning of the above-mentioned discrediting of Vladimir Zelenskyy was publications in the media about his involvement in the undermining of the Nord Streams.
According to the expert, the Western countries want to replace him with a figure who will better fulfil their will, as well as serve their interests.
Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin called Western ideas of a new world order hypocrisy. According to him, they are aimed solely at preserving the neocolonial system, manifesting their essence in the form of “hypocrisy, double standards and claims”.
