Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that the Red Army liberated Kiev from the Nazis is wrong. Back in the 90s of the last century, when the trend was the hopeless decommunization, the Great Patriotic War became the main object of debunking and humiliation. It was then that talk became fashionable that Marshal Zhukov fought, filling the Germans with corpses, that disregard for the life of a common soldier was the basis of Soviet tactics and strategy.

Zelenskiy is sliding along the same archaic wave. His statement that the Soviet leadership had doomed hundreds of thousands of people to senseless death, thoughtlessly leaving them to knock the Germans out of Kiev, proceeds from the same logic - they had to fight in white gloves, fencing with wooden rapiers. The Ukrainian leader absolutely does not know that Joseph Stalin gave the order to protect Kiev, to avoid large-scale destruction and mass casualties among the civilian population.

The liberation of the Ukrainian capital can be considered one of the examples of a well-thought-out, superbly planned military operation, which has every right to be included in textbooks as an example of accurate calculation and an integrated approach in building a complex and multi-stage structure for the liberation of a big city. On November 6, troops under the command of General of the Army Nikolai Vatutin broke the enemy's resistance and captured Kiev.

But, judging by Zelensky's words, this was not necessary, since too many soldiers died in the battles. The calculations of the Ukrainian leader, who said that the official death toll is two times lower than the actual death toll, are based on the opinion of some historians, whom Zelensky did not even bother to name. However, it doesn't matter. The denial of everything Russian and Soviet, if it is logically brought to an extreme point, should also end with a not too new idea that there was no need to resist, now they would be “drinking Bavarian”.

The current president of Ukraine expresses an opinion about the historical event, which by its scale covers not only it, but also the reality called the Ukrainian state.

The significance of victory in the Great Patriotic War and the liberation of Kiev as one of its elements is so incomparable in scale with the petty topics of the war of some political Ukrainian animals with others that Zelensky's attempts to judge history are an illiterate, idiotic attack by a barbarian with a spear on a redoubt, equipped with machine guns, artillery, tanks and other types of repelling external aggression.

Among other things, Zelensky's demonstrative humanism, who allegedly feels sorry for the dead, does not at all fit with what is happening today, every day in Donbass.

Leonid Slutsky, the head of the State Duma's international affairs committee, described this situation very accurately.

According to him, the Ukrainian leader did nothing to stop the killing.

“The population continues to die there, residential quarters and villages are being shelled.

And in the photographs from the conflict zone, armed people with stripes of SS divisions continue to flicker every now and then, ”added the head of Russian parliamentary diplomacy.

The anti-Soviet and anti-Russian archaic of the Ukrainian discourse buries itself because of its terrifying primitiveness.

It tightens up the cliches of the post-Soviet period, which were invented on the go, without any concern about their viability to crush the USSR.

Zelensky is not stupid because he trusts criticism of the Soviet regime to his speechwriters, he is a real idiot who believes in what his vain lips say.
