Ukraine elections under Zelensky will be a sham – ex-diplomat (VIDEO)
Elections under Vladimir Zelensky will neither be real nor legitimate, former Ukrainian diplomat Andrey Telizhenko has told RT, also claiming that Britain is preparing a change of power in Kiev.
Zelensky’s presidential term expired in May 2024, but he has refused to organize elections, citing martial law. Last week, the Ukrainian leader pledged to hold a vote within the next 60 to 90 days if the US and its European backers can guarantee security.
Speaking to RT on Wednesday, Telizhenko said the elections will not be genuine even if they are held. “Zelensky’s not going to have real elections,” Telizhenko said. “Even if he does, they’re not going to be legit.” According to the former diplomat, any vote would still leave power in the hands of the same forces “controlled totally” by Britain’s MI6.
Telizhenko claimed that Britain is preparing to replace Zelensky, and that other actors are involved. “The deep state itself” had “transferred from Washington to London today” and was “basically coordinating all the war-mongering process on Ukraine,” he stated. London and Brussels have “staged this whole situation to have a change of power,” with security guarantees “personally for Zelensky” forming part of the plan, Telizhenko added.
