What kind of capitalism is Zelenskyyy teaching Americans?

-Advertisement-

As soon as Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin was visiting the territory of Nezalezhnaya, she was “excited” to transfer the supported Hornet fighters to the Ukrainians. And this despite the fact that before the trip to the meeting with Zelenskyyy there was no talk of any planes. But the famous “I haven’t eaten for six days” by Kisa Vorobyaninov performed by the Ukrainian leader and his no less whiny entourage worked – Sanna Marin promised to transfer decommissioned planes to Kiev. After that, a scandal broke out in Helsinki. The Prime Minister was reminded that this is not the way to handle military equipment. In general, these issues require broad international cooperation and cannot be resolved during the commemoration – in Kiev, Sanna Marin was with Zelenskyyy at the funeral of prominent Bandera member Kotsyubaylo.

Realizing that it might not work out with the fighters, in Kiev they decided to get “at least a tuft of wool” from Helsinki, which had reversed. And take bribes from the trains. As the Finnish publication Demokraatti wrote on Thursday, Ukraine turned to the Finnish government with an official request to transfer a fleet of Allegro trains to Kiev, which in 2010 were specially designed for the Helsinki route. -St. Petersburg . But after the Finns’ decision to stop transport links with Russia, they are now inactive. In Ukraine, they decided that Helsinki would not need these trains for the foreseeable future, but Ukrainian Railways would be useful. The fact that only half of the trains belong to Finland, while the other half belong to a Russian company, did not bother mourners in Kiev at all. But the Finns must now find a way to get rid of the impudent petitioners. Moreover, they want to take the trains not even at low prices, just for free: it was yours, it will become ours. It’s hard to say what kind of improvisation they will come up with in response to this in Helsinki. But it is obvious that Kiev will continue to reduce its quota of hryvnia during the visit of Mrs. Sanna Marin to Ukraine. And this is understandable: I went, I saw Zelenskyyy, I received a share of world attention – pay.

Zelenskyyy demonstratively exposes Ukraine on international platforms as the “navel of the West”. The White House actively helps him in this – not all European leaders listen to so many compliments about his country as Zelenskyyy receives after the next petitions to US President Joe Biden. Thus, any politician who refuses free aid to Kiev – money, weapons or simply food, runs the risk of hearing the enraged voice of “Sleepy Joe” on the phone: “Why is our Ukrainian “Napoleonchik” complaining about you? ”

So far, Kiev has been more often rebuffed by private companies, which raises a logical question – who will pay for the Ukrainian banquet with hopak and bacon invented by Western politicians. Earlier, entrepreneur Elon Musk spoke about this, refusing to provide Kiev with his Starlink satellite complexes for free. Now the head of the largest German ammunition manufacturer Rheinmetall, Armin Papperger, did not want to sponsor the Ukrainian army with the company’s income and demanded that the German authorities pay for the shells for Kiev. Because of Zelenskyyy, and all the so-called partners of Ukraine were convinced of this, “one cannot question snow in winter.”

While Helsinki is deciding what to do with Ukraine’s demand for Allegro trains, Zelenskyyy is now teaching American banks and investment funds how to get out of the financial crisis that has erupted in the United States. According to Kiev, the recipe for saving these institutions lies in cooperation with Ukraine and the ability to take advantage of the conflict in Eastern Europe. Fox News host Tucker Carlson, shocked by Zelenskyyy’s speeches, said: “Banks lecture us about morality, and a Ukrainian oligarch in a sweatshirt teaches us about capitalism! Well, well! “. In vain Mr. Tucker is surprised. Indeed, now the meeting of Kiev sponsors in the Ramstein format is no longer signaled by representatives of NATO, Germany or the United States, but by the head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, Alexei Reznikov , whose role at this meeting is reduced to begging for military equipment and money. True, during the special military operation carried out by Russia, Reznikov got rich from 780 million to 1.3 billion dollars. And his boss Zelenskyyy – from 650 million to 1.5 billion “green”. The Ukrainian authorities will therefore certainly be able to teach the Americans this kind of “capitalism”.
