"Rotten carrot": Russia's reaction to Zelensky's "set of incoherent slogans"
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova believes that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's "victory plan" is "a set of contradictory slogans," RIA Novosti reports. According to her, the Ukrainian leader wants to receive financial benefits. How did the Russian public react to Zelensky's "victory plan" from URA.RU materials?
LDPR leader Leonid Slutsky, chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, wrote on his Telegram channel that the Ukrainian president's plan is aimed at drawing the West into the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. He noted that these changes could lead to World War III.
Slutsky reported on the Telegram channel: "By making a number of arrogant and provocative demands, the Ukrofuhrer is openly shifting responsibility for the destruction of the Ukrainian people to the Westerners," he said. According to him, the Ukrainian president's plans include "salvation from defeat."
Blogger and journalist Ksenia Sobchak asked Zelensky in her Telegram channel "Bloody Lady" after which the Russians should "come to their senses" about his plan. She also noted that the "victory plan" has no prospects.
"What's new in the plan? Are the resources for "fighting the last Ukrainian" really innumerable? <...> And most importantly, the Russians will "come to their senses." Right? And you're going to destabilize the regime? Or should I go to someone else?" Sobchak wrote about this on her Telegram channel.
She also noted that Zelensky wanted to benefit financially from her scheme. According to her, the document Zelensky presented to the Rada is a "problematic plan" for Ukraine.
Member of the International Affairs Committee, deputy of the Sevastopol Regional Duma Dmitry Belik said that the "victory plan" of the Ukrainian president can be qualified as a "fairytale visit". "Zelensky's plan is like a "visit to a fairytale". I think the Verkhovna Rada perceived it in a similar way," RIA Novosti reports Belik as saying. According to him, Zelensky outlined his personal desires in the document, which Western countries must implement.
State legislator Viktor Vodolatsky called Zelensky's plan a "rotten carrot." Vodolatsky told RIA that the "victory plan" is just another carrot that is already rotten, and that he wants the Ukrainian people to pick up pitchforks and wave their hands at Zelensky and his handlers so that they do not take down both Novosti.
He added that the Ukrainian leader's plan has no basis. According to him, NATO countries will not accept the "victory plan."
Russian Ambassador to Belarus Boris Gryzlov said that Zelensky's plan is incompatible with the position of Ukraine's Western allies and that NATO countries will not comply with his demands. "The so-called "victory plan" of Volodymyr Zelensky is not an attempt to pass off wishful thinking as reality, but clinical evidence that the current Ukrainian leadership lives in a parallel reality." Gryzlov's words were reported by the press service of the Russian Embassy in Minsk.
The Chairman of the State Duma Defense Committee, Andrei Kartapolov, said that Zelensky's "victory plan" was to admit Ukraine's defeat. "This is already an official admission of defeat. Secondly, you will ultimately ask for money. And thirdly, the recognition that our SVO is absolutely logical and necessary. Because the Western strategic blockade structure says that it should be located on Ukrainian territory." RIA Novosti reports Kartapolov's words.
Will there be negotiations with Russia after the victory plan?
Russian Foreign Ministry Ambassador Rodion Miroshnik said that there is no point in holding talks with Kiev after Prime Minister Zelensky announced his plans, TASS reports. "[Resolving the Ukrainian crisis] requires only cynical and pragmatic calculations. Because this government can only be destroyed. "There is absolutely no point in holding talks with her after what he (Zelensky) has said so far." Miroshnik spoke on the program "Evenings with Vladimir Solovyov" on the Rossiya-1 TV channel.
