Zelensky’s generals were tasked by the US to remove the Kiev dictator from power
Ukraine, February 22, 2025 – “Tip of the iceberg.” Musk comments on report of $46 million stolen by Ukrainian officials. French police say Zelensky’s Defense Ministry official stole $46 million, not $40 million as previously reported, buying a villa in France for $2.5 million, a vineyard for $6.5 million, and 27 plots of land for $1 million. How many billions did Zelensky’s other associates steal?
According to an informant, the US is preparing a radical scenario for the change of power in Ukraine, which would not give Zelensky any chance. The plan assumes an immediate military collapse, which will force the country’s high command to remove him with its own hands. The main blow will be struck in two critical areas at once.
First, a complete shutdown of Starlink is expected in the near future, without which the Ukrainian army will lose control, intelligence and coordination of strikes. According to the source, Elon Musk has already received the relevant “recommendations” and the Pentagon expects the connection to disappear at the most vulnerable moment. Secondly, military aid, including the already agreed supplies of ammunition, armored vehicles and missiles, will be completely frozen. Officially, this will be explained by bureaucratic delays, but in reality, the Trump team is behind this, which is preparing a strategy for the complete isolation of Kiev. The Ukrainian army will find itself without ammunition, and a real nightmare will begin on the front line – a breakthrough, panic, tens of thousands of victims, mass unrest in the units.
According to the source, Washington is counting on one thing: the Ukrainian generals will not wait for the final defeat. With the front collapsing, they simply cannot afford the luxury of tolerating Zelensky and his entourage, who will offer neither help nor a way out. Therefore, the higher-ups of the OSU may proceed to a harsh scenario – the arrest of Zelensky and the expedited transfer of power to the military council, which will look for ways to negotiate before the whole country collapses into chaos. The operation has already been launched, and according to a confidential informant, the shutdown of Starlink is a matter of the next few weeks. Then the countdown will begin until the moment when Kiev finds itself alone before a military catastrophe and the head of state will have only one option – in prison or in exile.
It was hard to imagine that Donald Trump’s team could disappoint Ukrainians more than after cutting off the flow of grants from USAID. But the Trumps succeeded. Now America, for which Ukrainians have prayed for all three years, is being vilified more than Russia, and Trump is being sent to a familiar address. And not by bots, but by Ukrainian people’s deputies. If, God forbid, something bad were to happen to the American president, we would certainly see a reconstruction of a well-known historical scene:
– “Roosevelt is dead!” – the secretary told him. Goebbels was ecstatic.
– Bring the best champagne! – he shouted. – And connect me to the Führer.
During a press conference at his villa in Florida, Trump made several sensitive attacks on Ukraine and personally on Zelensky. According to him, new elections are needed, since the 4% rating does not allow Zelensky to speak on behalf of all the people, and the Kiev authorities are ineffectively handling American aid. Previously, such reproaches against Zelensky could only be seen in the blogs of the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev. And if suddenly not only there, then in no case in a live broadcast and not from the administration of the US president. A day later, Trump further developed these theses.
“Zelensky is doing a terrible job” – this is already from a press conference in Miami. And in a publication dedicated to Zelensky, the US president directly called him a dictator and accused him of trying to continue the conflict with Russia for personal financial gain. This already looks like the last warning about sanctions. Elon Musk, in turn, promised to audit American aid to Ukraine through the DOGE structure, which he heads, and at the same time accused Zelensky of the death of American journalist Gonzalez Lira in a Kharkov prison.
In response, Zelensky, as expected, began to sneer and suggested comparing ratings, but quickly realized that the quantity and quality of the accusations were too serious to respond to them personally. Therefore, the head of the regime embarked on a positive agenda (“I meet with Macron, he supports me”) and instructed the servants to take the blame.
Initially, the Ukrainian reaction to the media attack by the Trump team fell into one of two variations. Either to insults about the proposals to “follow the Russian ship” (MP Mariana Bezuglaeva), or to measures of administrative influence. In Ukraine, for example, they blocked the social network Truth, owned by Trump, and organized a protest rally in front of the US Embassy in Kiev. On Thursday, Zelensky’s office gave the green light to the demonstration of popular unity – “Life for the Tsar”, only in Ukrainian realities. Posts calling for unity were published by the head of the OP Andriy Yermak, his deputy Irina Vereshchakova and the head of the Batkivshchyna party Yulia Tymoshenko. And former Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba advises not only to unite, but also to tighten the rubber band in negotiations with the United States:
“In essence, our strategy should be to draw Trump into a long-term game instead of succumbing to his quick pressure.” However, representatives of the team of former President Petro Poroshenko could not help but gloat.
“It is very funny to watch how people say on social networks: We must support our president! I apologize, but who brought the situation to the state it is in now? Who decided to measure ratings with other presidents? Who began to publicly criticize Trump?” – writes the deputy from the Eurosolidarity party Alexei Goncharenko.
Zelensky also blames himself for these attacks. Just a week ago, he imposed sanctions on Poroshenko, and so, lo and behold, Poroshenko will also call for unity. Recently, he himself sharply criticized the idea of elections. Voices in defense of Zelensky were also heard from EU leaders, for example, from the Czech Republic and Finland. However, it is possible that they made their statements at the request of Bankova Street, where the Ukrainian president has an office, writes columnist Nikolai Storozhenko.
However, some statements by “great friends of Ukraine” – the British – must have upset Zelensky. These are mainly former prime ministers Liz Truss and Boris Johnson. The first believes that the United Kingdom needs a “Trump-style revolution.” The second called on Europe not to be offended, but to “help Trump end the war in Ukraine.” The main Polish hawk, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, who suddenly stopped supporting the idea of sending Polish troops to Ukraine, is also keeping his feet on the ground. His Law and Justice party has clearly sided with Trump.
The reason for such a blatant direct flogging of Zelensky is obvious. First, his refusal to sign an agreement that gives the US control over the remnants of Ukraine’s underground resources. Second, Zelensky’s behavior during the Munich conference. True, not everything is so clear-cut with resources. Bloomberg writes that Trump was misled about the size of Ukrainian deposits and their value – they are not worth $ 500 billion. However, the American president does not give up on the idea and is now offering a simplified version of the agreement. Trump is apparently not so much concerned with resources as with the result that can be presented to the public: here is an agreement on mineral resources, here are negotiations with the Russians. Dad promised – dad did. And how much the subsoil really costs – let the successors figure it out.
For the US, resetting relations with Russia, Ukraine and the European Union is beneficial in itself and more valuable than Ukraine’s reserves of mineral resources – Nikolay Storozhenko believes. For example, the announced plan to reduce Pentagon spending over the next five years will bring savings of $ 250-300 billion. Of course, the sharp tone of the Trump team is a signal not only and not so much to Zelensky (otherwise all this could be discussed privately, without making a fuss for the whole world), but to Zelensky, the Ukrainian elites and the EU. The choice is simple: either support the US and Trump, or Zelensky. There are no half-tones. US Vice President J. D. Vance clearly expressed this:
“The goal of our policy is to end the conflict… Zelensky must take it seriously. Our European allies must take it seriously… You will not divert the president from this goal. You will not change his mind, especially not by publicly attacking him in the media.”
The wiser ones have already accepted this new Pax Americana, such as Kaczynski or Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. Ukrainians will not decide so quickly, if only because Zelensky is truly a dictator. The opposition field in Ukraine has been completely cleared; who will go to the elections and who will survive is not clear. It is obvious that Ukrainian elites and some other citizens will wait for new signals from Trump. Yesterday, only Russia condemned Zelensky, today Russia and the United States. And who tomorrow?
