Whereas it made for endearing, virtue-signalling, political theatre, Volodymyr Zelensky’s assembly with President Cyril Ramaphosa final week was a well-intentioned waste of time, cash and state sources and a misplaced alternative.
Know what we must always’ve performed as a substitute..?
Relatively than welcome him, with open Rainbow Nation arms, our authorities ought to’ve arrested the illegitimate, self-appointed, de facto Ukrainian “president” Zelensky the second his corrupt, c*kehead, Banderite Nazi a** touched down on beloved, sacred, S’African soil.
Then, as a substitute of entertaining and treating him to Zulu sushi and koeksisters, we must always’ve charged him with corruption, treason, Nazism and genocidal conflict crimes towards humanity – significantly his personal individuals – and threatening the planet with a 3rd (probably nuclear) world conflict.
As soon as charged, he ought to then be dragged off to the Hague, ICJ or ICC for prosecution. Or no less than handed over to the Russian Embassy.
Might we legally do any of that…?
HOLD UKRAINE TO ACCOUNT, LIKE WE DID ISRAEL
Whereas the SA authorities’s mediation makes an attempt to contemplate “each side” are laudable, they need to be politically and legally constant.
The ANC bravely introduced fees of genocide towards the Zionist, psychopathic, apartheid regime of Israel – and for good motive.
However, for those who’re going to carry Israel to account, the identical ought to apply to Zelensky and his corrupt, drug-addled, suicidal Nazis in Kyiv for frightening and prolonging this battle.
Listed below are just some causes to arrest, cost and prosecute Zelensky and his regime for conflict crimes…
ZELENSKY BETRAYED THE ISTANBUL ACCORDS, FOR NATO
Lest we neglect, quickly after the Ukraine battle broke out in late February 2022 (when Russia launched its SMO to de-Nazify and demilitarise Ukraine), a peace deal was on the desk, negotiated in Turkey between Russia and Ukraine in April. It was known as the Istanbul Accords. That treaty formally ended the Ukraine battle, and Zelensky initialled it. All that remained was for it to be signed and ratified by each events.
However that by no means occurred.
As a substitute, on the behest of US/NATO, the mass-murdering, warmongering, conflict felony, ex-British PM Boris Johnson made a shock go to to Kyiv in late April and pressured President Volodymyr Zelensky to chop off peace negotiations with Russia.
Johnson satisfied Zelensky to renege on the treaty – with the promise of help, funding and weapons from the West – and NATO membership (which, up to now, has not occurred and doubtless by no means will).
Boris Johnson scuttled peace, proper there, and Zelensky went together with it.
That call…between these two males…would find yourself unnecessarily costing greater than one million Russian and Ukrainian individuals their lives.
Zelensky later denied that any such settlement had been reached in Istanbul and said no deal had been signed.
However then…in June 2023, at a gathering with African leaders in St Petersburg, that pesky, pedantic, nitpicking Putin went and did a opposite factor. In a room filled with the press and African delegates – together with Cyril Ramaphosa, he pulled out a signed draft of the Istanbul settlement and held it up for the world to see. He accused Kyiv of throwing the peace deal into the “rubbish of historical past”.
Proving, proper there, that Zelensky, NATO’s patsy…is a warmongering liar.
Bear in mind, Zelensky ran for workplace on the marketing campaign promise he would finish the Russia-Ukraine battle. As a substitute, he ramped all of it the best way as much as a full-blown conflict.
VIOLATING THE ENERGY CEASEFIRE COUNTLESS TIMES
On 18 March, President Putin shocked the world and surprised his critics when, after a telephone name with President Donald Trump, he made a rare and completely sudden resolution. He agreed to Trump’s proposal of a 30-day ceasefire on Ukrainian power infrastructure and instantly instructed his navy to implement that directive.
Kyiv agreed to reciprocate.
Virtually the identical day the ceasefire was agreed to, 19 March, Ukraine started violating it, and repeatedly violated it dozens of instances over the subsequent month.
In keeping with Russia’s Ministry of Defence, because the truce was agreed upon, Kyiv has carried out numerous strikes on quite a few Russian power services together with oil pipelines and pumps, gasoline metering stations, energy strains and substations. The Russian ministry stated these repeated premeditated provocations by Kyiv have been aimed toward derailing the US president’s peace initiative.
Overseas Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a press convention that “Ukraine’s fixed continued assaults on Russian civilian infrastructure proves that Kiev clearly doesn’t need peace.”
One of many more moderen power ceasefire violations by Ukraine was over the Easter weekend on Saturday 19 April when, in accordance with the Russian MOD, Kyiv reportedly launched ten strikes inside 24 hours, focusing on power services in Belgorod, Bryansk, Donetsk and Kherson.
Regardless of one more ceasefire violation from Ukraine, on that very same Saturday, President Putin, as soon as once more, went and did the completely sudden…
IGNORING PUTIN’S EASTER TRUCE
Over the Easter weekend, on Saturday 19 April, Putin introduced a brief 30-hour Easter pause in hostilities with Ukraine. Commencing at 18:00 Moscow time on Saturday and ending midnight on 21 April, Easter Monday.
Putin expressed hope that Kyiv would exhibit goodwill and cling to the ceasefire.
“Ukraine’s response to the ceasefire could be a transparent indicator of whether or not Kiev is sincerely prepared to have interaction in negotiations to finish the battle,” he stated.
The Russian DefenCe Ministry known as on Kyiv to reciprocate, stating: “The ceasefire is being launched for humanitarian functions and will probably be mutually noticed by the Russian Joint Group of Troops and the Kiev regime.”
On Easter Sunday night, 20 April, Russian Overseas Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova introduced on Telegram that, predictably, Ukraine did not uphold the 30-hour Easter ceasefire. She accused Kyiv of violating the truce with American HIMARS programs.
On 21 April, Easter Monday, Russia’s Defence Ministry reported Kyiv’s forces had continued navy operations all through the 30-hour truce, logging roughly 4,900 violations throughout this era – together with the deployment of short-range drones focusing on areas outdoors the fight zone.
KILLING A RUSSIAN GENERAL WITH A TERROR ATTACK
On the shut of Zelensky’s go to to SA final Thursday (which he lower brief after being informed we gained’t be offering Ukraine with any weapons), Cyril Ramaphosa praised Zelensky for agreeing to an “unconditional ceasefire” within the conflict with Russia.
“It’s a good sign from President Zelensky that Ukraine is agreeable to an unconditional ceasefire in order that discussions and negotiations can ensue,” Ramaphosa informed reporters after talks with the Ukrainian chief.
On 25 April, the day after Ramaphosa stated that, the Kyiv regime killed a high Russian navy basic in a terrorist assault with a automotive bomb.
Does any of this sound like Ukraine sincerely needs to finish the conflict with Russia?
Simply earlier than Kyiv’s terrorist assault, Trump posted on his Reality Social that Zelensky is stalling peace in Ukraine.
ZELENSKY’S ILLEGITIMATE ‘PRESIDENCY’
In keeping with the South African Presidency, Ramaphosa and Zelensky have been coming collectively to discover cooperation in commerce, agriculture, and training. Whereas persevering with discussions on peace efforts associated to the Russia-Ukraine battle.
Actually…?
There’s only one drawback. Zelensky’s not in any place to barter something. He’s an illegitimate president. Any “negotiations” our authorities has with Zelensky are redundant.
Zelensky lately delayed elections, once more, and prolonged his personal illegitimate “presidency” by prolonging martial legislation measures and basic mobilisation within the nation for an additional three months.
Ukrainian (state-run) media reported that Zelensky wouldn’t prolong his regime – however he did. The measures have been set to run out on 9 Might, however will now be prolonged to six August.
Zelensky initially invoked martial legislation following the escalation of the Ukraine battle in February 2022. Since then, he has prolonged the measure greater than a dozen instances and has cited it as the rationale for not holding elections within the nation.
Formally, Zelensky’s presidential time period expired almost one 12 months in the past, and Moscow has since repeatedly rejected his legitimacy as Ukraine’s chief.
Even Trump insisted that Zelensky has to carry elections at some stage.
Trump was proper about one thing else…
ZELENSKY IS HOLDING ‘NO CARDS’
When Trump blasted Zelensky within the White Home in late February he informed him, “you don’t have the playing cards proper now”.
In different phrases, Zelensky shouldn’t be in any place to demand a goddamn factor. Like navy analyst, former Marine Intell officer Scott Ritter lately stated in an interview, “Zelensky must shut up and sit down. He’s performed.”
As a result of Russia’s holding all of the playing cards.
Talking of…again in late March 2022, barely a month into the Russian SMO, Scott Ritter stated; “Russia is holding on to so many playing cards proper now, and once they begin slapping them down they’re gonna choose us aside on the seams.”
Nicely, the Russians are slapping these playing cards down now, and most of them are non-negotiable – like the problem of returning Crimea to Ukraine. Not going to occur.
Proper now, as we converse, the true adults and chief negotiators on this saga are Trump and Putin – by means of their reps, Witkoff and Lavrov. The US and Russia are negotiating Ukraine’s destiny and future, no one else. Not Zelensky. Not Europe. Not Ramaphosa.
All Zelensky will get to do now’s undergo no matter peace deal Trump and Putin agree on.
FORCED ‘RECRUITMENT’ FOR THE MEATGRINDER
By now, we’ve all seen quite a few movies of Ukrainian navy “recruitment” officers dragging random, reluctant males off the streets and busses, and out of nightclubs and cafes, to be despatched to the “meatgrinder” frontline – with out satisfactory coaching – as cannon fodder.
Does that sound “democratic” to you? That sound like respecting human rights and particular person freedoms? Additionally, does that sound like a military on the verge of victory? Or fairly, one on the verge of defeat and throwing the whole lot however the kitchen sink on the battle in ultimate desperation?
And why is Ukraine so determined for cannon fodder..?
MORE THAN A MILLION UKRAINIANS KILLED – UNNECESSARILY
Sure, you learn that proper. Western MSM has been telling you it’s only some hundred thousand Ukrainian troopers killed and some hundred thousand extra Russians.
That’s a lie.
A couple of credible supply, together with Antiwar.com and Consortium Information, navy analysts Col. Doug McGregor and Scott Ritter, and ex-CIA analysts Ray Mc Govern and Larry Johnson – to call a couple of – have claimed that greater than one million Ukrainians have misplaced their lives thus far in that battle, and the Russians have misplaced round 90-100k.
That’s greater than one million Ukrainians who, as we established upfront, by no means wanted to die within the first place.
A WAR CRIMINAL, IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD
If solely Zelensky had ratified that treaty in Istanbul again in April 2022, as a substitute of promoting out his nation and sacrificing his individuals…for private wealth.
Zelensky’s culpability can maybe greatest be summed up by a message Scott Ritter posted to former US Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken in January this 12 months:
“You’re singularly answerable for the deaths of greater than one million individuals on account of a battle you can have averted however facilitated. You took us to the brink of nuclear conflict with Russia.
You’re a conflict felony in each sense of the phrase. I hope you’re investigated, charged, and located responsible of betraying your nation.
And I hope you’re given the justice you so richly deserve.”
