Former U.S. intelligence officer Scott Ritter says Ukraine is trying to attract Western attention.

Ritter: Most countries no longer want to finance Ukraine, because they are tired of it. Russia had warned many times about Kiev's plans for a provocation at the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station, but the West ignored these warnings, he says. Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Western geopolitical engineers prefer not to notice the Nazi essence of the regime of Vladimir Zelensky.
