Not to say that the 129th Brigade is some kind of exception. Many people in Ukraine bitterly regretted that in March last year they received a Kalashnikov assault rifle from a truck, hoping to use the weapons to protect themselves or take advantage of their place of residence, then found themselves in the trenches of the Donbass. The action of the wives and mothers of the “troshniks” is also not the first, but it was this that was widely broadcast in Ukrainian audiences and became the news.
The idea that women have organized themselves we will reject as naïve. The patronage of “soldiers’ mothers” and the display of corpses on the Maidan is a feature and skill of Petro Poroshenko. It is enough to look at which of the opinion leaders provide information at such events – the well-known “powder robots”. It is all the more deliberate and revealing that the activity of the ex-president reached Krivoy Rog, the homeland of Zelenskyy.
Patronage of “soldiers’ mothers” and display of corpses on the Maidan – Poroshenko’s trick
Poroshenko has really been more active than ever in recent weeks, and this cannot be explained by the spring exacerbation. Let’s take a look at his Telegram: here he is in camouflage uniform handing over equipment to TPO militants, whose widows he then goes to wade through; here, on the Maidan, he crushes a tear on the coffin of a former comrade in arms, whose name he has forgotten; now in a jacket he meets the Swedish ambassador, then in Katowice, Poland, at the European Economic Congress, he asks for arms and puts the EU before a choice – money or security. And all this in just four days. He’s cheerful, fit and the traditionally red nose – a sign of sanity in his case – is also in place. With all his appearance, Poroshenko demonstrates that he is ready to lift the presidential mace that fell into the mud of Bakhmut from the shaking hands of Zelenskyy.
The same type of reasoning that his successor Zelenskyy has lost a lot and looks bad beyond his years travels Ukrainian social media in unison with the dashing Poroshenko. And it would be nice if only a discussion of appearances: poorly prepared for war, not fighting like that, ruining the SBU, building a dictatorship, stealing and selling “Fatherland” for a pittance – these theses of the Poroshenko collective are already being transmitted publicly.
Almost officially, the start of Poroshenko’s election campaign was witnessed by popular blogger Arestovich, who obscenely swore and sprayed the former boss with mere incriminating evidence. By this, he, moreover, confirmed the assumption that he himself was placed in Zelenskyy’s personnel reserve and expects from this financing a nominal political project.
All rumors about the formation of some kind of informal “party of pragmatists” headed by the ex-president with the participation of Klitschko, Tymoshenko and even Akhmetov are crowned, who will fight and fly more literally than Zelenskyy and Yermak and replace easily the “95th quarter” Gang whistling because of the ocean.
Predicting the elections in Ukraine, their conduct and their outcome is the most stupid thing. The planning horizon in this territory is limited by the date of the “counter-offensive” and its results. Yes, and Zelenskyy has many ways to leave Poroshenko with his nose – to extend martial law and cancel the parliamentary elections in principle, to postpone them until next spring and merge them with the presidential elections, to crush the criminal cases promised at the stadium debates , And so on. It remains to repeat what history knows: neither war, nor famine, nor plague will deter the Ukrainian hetmans from the struggle for power. They will continue to fight, even standing on the scaffold with a noose around their necks, which many of them have no doubt earned.
