    When did Zelensky become king of the world anyway? Suddenly this guy is being seen in every country, speaking for places that don’t even know or care who he is, and this is on top of the billions of dollars being sent to his mailbox.

      I believe the US have a very well oiled PR machine that they can just set off on whoever they need. Look at Guaido, or that kid Joshua Wong. One day they’re obscure figures (to the west) that you would only have heard of if you cared about local politics, and the next they’re the second coming of Jesus Christ and the biggest freedom fighters the world has ever seen. But at no point are you chastised for not knowing who they are, the media just acts like you’ve always known who these persons were.

      I find it weird also that Zelensky is speaking to the African Union when his cities are being sieged. I think it will come out soon that the US has lost confidence in Ukraine and will leave them to the wolves. They’re parading him around while he still has some rep left.

        It works the other way too, when US assassinated Qasem Suleimani nobody in the west had any idea who he was, but then the next day everyone is absolutely certain he was the biggest terrorist ever known to man.
