    Holy shit Ukraine fucking assassinated one of its own negotiators. They claim they have evidence he was leaking information to Russia so they just fucking shot him twice the head.

    They could have just thrown him in jail but no they just fucking shot him in the head.

    Edit: I wonder if Zelenskyy ordered this or what. It was their equivalent to the secret service. Another possibility I'm thinking of is they did it without Zelenskyy's knowledge as some threat that they'll do the same to him if he tries to surrender.

      Seems like a confident country winning and not descending into paranoia and desperation.

      They don't fuck around.

      For their part, the Ukrainians needed no instruction from the United States to embark on a policy of de-Russification. When Zelenskyy shut down Medvedchuk’s media companies in February 2021, it was viewed as a gift to the newly arrived Biden administration. After 2014, “you’re either with us or against us” became a pronounced feature of Ukrainian politics, and Washington’s encouragement in 2021 made it worse. Autonomy for the Donbas, the formula contained within the February 2015 Minsk-2 Ceasefire Agreement, was considered treasonous by powerful forces in Ukraine. For example, Zelensky was warned by nationalist militia leader Dmytro Yarosh after his election that such an offer would come at the price of his neck. Just a few days ago, the editor of the Kyiv Independent wrote in the New York Times that any concession to Russia over the status of eastern Ukraine would bring about the same fate for Zelenskyy that befell Victor Yanukovych, who was tossed from power in 2014. The United States supported all these steps, looking simultaneously toward bolstering Ukrainian nationalism and blasting the Russophiles.

      Their coint is essentially entirely Fascists, so I'm pretty sure they just did it. Heck, the guy could have been trying to leak on Zelenskys orders at this point.

      I'm not saying he's under house arrest but...it doesn't look like he's not under house arrest right now. Being swapped between bunkers ever 4 hours is functionally the same
