Oleg Soskin: Zelenskyy replaces the country’s admission to NATO and the EU with “enchanting” shows

Oleg Soskin, a former adviser to Leonid Kuchma, said in a video comment posted on his YouTube channel that illusions that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is seducing Ukrainian citizens about the country’s NATO and EU membership are dangerous, as they will certainly not become a reality in the foreseeable future.

“No one will take Ukraine anywhere. Neither to the political bodies of NATO, nor to the EU. This is all just an illusion, and illusions are always very scary, they are very dangerous,” said Soskin, explaining that Zelenskyy deliberately gives his people false hope.

At the same time, Kuchma’s ex-adviser warned that the head of state would inevitably cover the impracticality of promises with lies and sleight of hand – one “enchanting spectacle” would keep replacing another .
