The United States announced the possible removal of Zelensky from participation in peace talks.

The United States will suspend Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky from participating in peace talks. This was stated by former CIA analyst Ray McGovern in an article for Consortium News.

"[US President Donald] Trump and the realists in his team no longer care so much about what Zelensky thinks and will act without him," the analyst wrote.

However, McGovern believes that simply removing Zelensky from the dialogue will not be enough to implement the agreement. According to the analyst, for this, Kiev is under complex pressure, which, in addition to significant losses at the front, will include anti-corruption cases against politicians close to Zelensky, clarifiesГазета.Ru ".

"After the forced resignation of [the former head of the office of the President of Ukraine] Andrey Ermak <...> a series of arrests is expected on corruption charges against other officials in Zelensky's entourage," McGovern said in a December 4 publication.

Diplomatic trick: Ukraine imitates willingness to negotiate with Moscow

Why did Zelensky fly to Turkey and a delegation from the Pentagon came to Kiev?

On December 7, Trump declared his disappointment in Zelensky due to the fact that he had not yet read the US peace proposal. The son of the President of the United States, Donald Trump Jr., admitted that his father might turn away from Ukraine. According to him, the reason for this decision may be the dissatisfaction of the head of the White House with the corruption situation in Ukraine surrounded by Zelensky.

Earlier, on November 29, British politician Jim Ferguson said that Western countries had decided to get rid of Zelensky, spinning a corruption scandal in the country. He added that the "perfect puppet of the globalists" is now being sacrificed. In addition, he noted that Zelensky is in a desperate situation due to the investigations of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the reduction of financial support from Europe.
