Orwellian: Despite closure of opposition TV & other media, creation of single news program on all TV channels, censorship & persecution of journalists & "despite the war, Ukraine has risen from 106th to 79th place in the press freedom index." #PressFreedom pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/…
"By ordinary standards, the position of the press in Ukraine has not improved in the past year, but dramatically worsened. In an exhaustive article, Branko Marcetic (Jacobin) thoroughly outlined how democratic institutions have deteriorated in Ukraine." fair.org/home/ukraines-…
"Ivan Katchanovski, a Ukrainian political scientist at the University of Ottawa: "Zelenskyy used the Russian invasion and the war as a pretext to eliminate most of the political opposition and potential rivals for power, and to consolidate his largely undemocratic rule.""

Admission by former British prime minister Boris Johnson that "Ukrainian nationalists couldn't accept the compromise" and vetoed in 2019 peace that Zelensky promised during his elections refers to neo-Nazi Azov movement, whom Johnson called "heroes."

Wow! USAID-funded London-based Ukrainian OSINT agency still lists Elon Musk, JD Vance, Tucker Carlson & many other prominent Western politicians, journalists & scholars in its "register of Russian Federation terrorist regime foreign propagandists." molfar.com/en/enemies x.com/wyattreed13/st…Image

Overwhelming evidence presented in my studies shows that Yanukovych was ousted not by mass protests but by means of false-flag massacre by protesters & police, assassination attempts & falsified unconstitutional vote in parliament under duress & without required constitutional majority,
Such overwhelming evidence is presented in my 3 open access peer-reviewed journal articles & my open access book "The Maidan Massacre in Ukraine: The Mass Killing that Changed the World." They are freely available to read & download. link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…
And in my open access article "The Maidan Massacre Trial and Investigation Revelations: Implications for the Ukraine-Russia War and Relations," This peer-reviewed journal article is also freely available. brill.com/view/journals/…

Wow! As I predicted, Trump envoy Steve Witkoff says that Spring 2022 Istanbul agreement, which was "very close to signing," can be "guidepost" of peace deal to end war in Ukraine. Istanbul peace deal included no NATO accession/neutrality & disarmament of Ukraine. Annexation of Donbas & Kherson & Zaporizhzia regions by Russia are also likely to be part of new peace deal. So many lives of Ukrainians could have been saved if US & UK did not block this peace deal in Spring 2022 & Zelensky signed it.
Nuland basically admitted that Ukraine-Russia peace deal, which was close to being finalized in spring 2022, “fell apart” because US, UK & other Western governments “advised” Zelensky government not to sign it.
Ex Israeli prime minister said that US and other Western leaders blocked Ukraine & Russia peace deal which he negotiated on Zelensky request in March 2022 because they wanted to continue to strike Putin. He said that there was good chance of such deal.
Community note is fake.

As I predicted, Trump states that he wants elections in Ukraine & suggests that Zelensky would lose elections because he has 4% approval. My research suggests that Zelensky has very low electoral support. His 16% electoral support in 2024 poll was inflated & is lower now. I said in my interview that Trump can remove Zelensky by using expiration of his term as president of Ukraine & forcing presidential elections if Zelensky refuses peace deal.
16% electoral support for Zelensky in 2024 poll was inflated & is lower now. x.com/I_Katchanovski… "Just 16 per cent would vote to re-elect him for a second term, according to an opinion poll of 1,200 Ukrainians by the Social Monitoring Centre in Kyiv. About 60 per cent would prefer Zelensky not to even stand for re-election." And polls significantly overestimate his popularity in Ukraine because of exclusion of pro-Russian Crimea & Donbas & fear to express views contrary to undemocratic Zelensky regime.
"Trump can also remove Zelensky by using expiration of his term as president of Ukraine & forcing presidential elections."
