Selensky calling for regime change in Russia – again

The Guardian is an outspoken V Selensky supporter and repeats all words of Selensky’s declaration:

Selensky “did not mince his words as he accused Russian leadership of being “mentally stuck in another century, a time of brutal violence … [and] total disregard for human rights and equality.”

“We know that such ideas and such times must never return to Europe,” he said.

He said that “a total rejection of the post-second world war world … is the foundation of the current regime in Russia,” but that Moscow “can be pushed to stop this war.” “We need to fully block Russia’s war machine, cut off its arms industry, limit its energy profits, and finally, put every frozen Russian asset including stolen wealth … to work, defending against the Russian aggression. It’s time to confiscate the Russian assets, not just freeze them … to use them to serve peace, not war.”

V Selensky remains a disputed leader of Ukraine, the legality of his presidency is disputed. As well, as reports show, there is a regime change operations on-going in Ukraine.

It is not the first time that Selensky demands a regime change in Russia and the confiscation of Russian assets held abroad, assets that have been blocked by some Western countries.

Firstly, a regime change in Moscow seems quasi-impossible. Secondly, the assets blocked cannot be confiscated unless to violate law and international order which would be a declaration of war against Russia. Already the blocking of Russian assets must be considered as a war-like attack on the sovereignty of Russia, as the sanctions are.

Nevertheless, Selensky’s declaration reminds that for him it’s all about the money. The West must pay the war and all expenses of Ukraine and bring in Russian assets to the profit of Ukraine – while Selensky is suppressing independent corruption control in his country.

Selensky, as well as The Guardian, on their side, do not mention that Ukraine’s army is flying every night attacks on Russian towns, with Russians injured and killed. The numbers of Russians injured and killed each night still are lower than those in Ukraine. The reciprocal attacks in the recent months seem more like revenge attacks with only limited military success, whereas Russia now is covering all Ukraine with its attacks and Ukraine is targeting mainly Moscow and those Russian towns near the Ukrainian border.
