The Reality of the War in Ukraine and the Hypocrisy of the West!

In recent days, there has been a lot of talk about the meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Zelensky at the White House. While some insist on turning Zelensky into a hero and Trump into a “insensitive villain,” the truth is quite different. What happened there was not a humiliation for Ukraine, but a moment of brutal realism: the war is already lost, and continuing to fund it only prolongs the needless suffering of the Ukrainian people.

This conflict isn't just a struggle between "good and evil," as Western propaganda tries to make it seem. The war didn’t start in 2022 – it was fabricated over years, with direct involvement from the US, NATO and the corrupt Ukrainian elite itself. Lets get to the facts.

1. How did this war start?

Many pretend that the war began with the "Russian invasion" in February 2022, but ignore the events that led to it:

2014 coup d'état - Viktor Yanukovych's democratically elected government has been overthrown in a coup orchestrated by the US and the European Union. The new regime, hostile to Russia, has begun aggressive policies against the Russian-speaking population in Donbass, leading to an internal civil war long before 2022.

Minsk Agreements I and II - These agreements were signed to bring peace between the Ukrainian government and the Donbass separatists. However, Kiev never fulfilled the terms and, instead of negotiating, continued the attacks and refused to grant autonomy to the region, as agreed.

NATO expansion and direct provocation to Russia - After the fall of the Soviet Union, the US promised that NATO would not expand to the east. However, that promise has been repeatedly broken, with the organization expanding to the Russian border. The attempt to integrate Ukraine was seen by Moscow as an existential threat, something that any military power in the world – including the U.S. – would never accept in their backyard.

The Western military escalation in Ukraine - For years, NATO has supplied arms to Ukraine, trained its forces and prepared the country for a direct confrontation with Russia. This wasn't a spontaneous conflict, but a meticulously crafted plan.

2. The role of Zelensky: the leader of "democracy" or a dictator in disguise?

Western press insists on painting Zelensky as a symbol of resistance and freedom, but conveniently ignores his actions within Ukraine itself:

Baniu opposition parties - Since 2022, parties considered “pro-Russian” have been outlawed, even though they are part of the Ukrainian democratic system.

Censored independent media - Newspapers and TV channels that questioned the official narrative were closed, leaving only state propaganda.

Postponed the elections indefinitely - To stay in power, Zelensky cancelled the presidential elections, preventing Ukrainians themselves to decide the future of the country.

Arrested and persecuted civilians and religious - Orthodox fathers and political opponents were arrested, in a clear sign of repression.

Zelensky rules like a dictator under the guise of war – and ironically, the West calls it democracy.

3. Who really profits from this war?

While Ukraine is devastated, there is one group that is benefiting immensely from this conflict: the US military-industrial complex and the Ukrainian oligarchs.

The US has sent hundreds of billions to Ukraine without any real audit. Many of those funds never reached Ukrainian forces – they were diverted by internal corruption and dark contracts.

Companies like Lockheed Martin and Raytheon made record profits from arms sales. For them, the longer the war, the better.

The Ukrainian corrupt elite - While ordinary Ukrainians die on the battlefield, politicians and businessmen linked to the government become millionaires with Western funds.

4. Why is Trump right to refuse more funding for war?

Trump didn't "humiliate" Zelensky - he just said the obvious: the US cannot continue to fund an endless conflict with no possibility of victory.

Ukraine has already lost militarily - Its forces are worn out, recruitment capacity has dropped drastically and Russia maintains control of strategic territories.

The U.S. has internal priorities - While billions are sent to Ukraine, American citizens themselves face an economic and social crisis.

NATO allies are beginning to retreat - Countries like Poland have already shown hesitation to continue supporting the war, because they realized that there is no winning way out for Ukraine.

Conclusion: the war is over, we just need to admit it.

The facts are clear: Ukraine has lost, and extending this war only causes more suffering. What Zelensky really fears isn't Russia – it's losing power when Ukrainians can finally vote.

And for those who insist on defending this war, the question is: how many more lives will have to be sacrificed to maintain this illusion?
