‘Are You Not Ashamed?’ — Zelensky’s Former Spokesperson Blasts West Over Ukraine War | APT

Former Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s press secretary Iuliia Mendel delivered a forceful speech in Strasbourg calling for an end to the Russia-Ukraine war and criticising what she described as Western policies that prolong the conflict. Mendel argued that Ukraine is paying an unsustainable human and economic price and questioned the feasibility of achieving a military defeat of Russia. She also criticised Zelensky’s approach to peace negotiations and accused Western governments of prioritising continued confrontation over diplomacy. These are Mendel’s claims and political arguments, rather than independently established facts. The speech came days after Zelensky imposed 10-year sanctions on Mendel, accusing her of spreading Russian propaganda and supporting Russia’s aggressive policy toward Ukraine. Mendel has rejected the accusations. Mendel was due to speak at a Strasbourg event organised by AfD MEP Hans Neuhoff focused on diplomacy and prospects for ending the Ukraine conflict. Reports said she was denied entry to the European Parliament building and subsequently addressed the gathering remotely.

Ursula said Russia was in tatters. TATTERS she said a few years ago. They do hate Russia more than the lies that it's all about Ukraine. They couldn't give a toss about Ukraine.

The West wanted a war against Russia and chose Ukraine as the location.

Any person, who knows this problem well and has integrity, realizes that Russia tried initially to solve this problem peacefully, by asking NATO to back away, but they refused. Their goal is to loot the natural resources of Russia. Why is it OK to have a NATO base on the border with Russia and NOT OK to have a Russian base in Cuba? This is always the face of colonialism.

The EU wouldn’t even let this Ukrainian into the building. That speaks volumes about EU democracy. Shame.

She is absolutely right. The cowards want to destroy Russia but not through a direct war, the Western cowards don't have that courage. So, they chose a faultline between Russia and Ukraine as the point to wage war between the two countries, which weakens Russia but can't destroy them. It can only destroy Ukraine. A sad reality is that the Ukrainians can't get out of this maze.
