Zelensky in Munich Security Conference: ‘The Exhausted President’
In the Munich Security Conference, embattled Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky once more took his well known song and dance routine to the world stage.
Zelensky has just replaced his top General – and political foe – Valery Zaluzhny, and very few days into the replacement’s Oleksandr Syrsky command, Kiev has lost the heavily fortified key Donbas city of Avdeevka.
Not a great start – and the overpowered and outmaneuvered Ukrainian forces seem to be ready to fold in many other frontline directions.
So now, the former comedian seems to be facing not only widespread war fatigue, but his whole fundraising routine has grown tiring for him and for many others.
German magazine Der Spiegel published an illuminating article called: Der Erschöpfte Präsident: The Exhausted President.
