February 26, 2023, 08:36 – BLiTZ – News Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has caused conflict in the ruling coalition in Italy after his inappropriate remarks about former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. RIA Novosti columnist Vladimir Kornilov writes about this.
During a joint press conference with Italian Prime Minister George Meloni, Zelenskiy spoke insultingly about Berlusconi, claiming that he did not face the hardships that other people, such as refugees, experience, and that his house was never bombed or attacked by tanks.
What Zelensky didn’t know, however, was that Berlusconi had endured carpet bombings, hunger and deprivation as a child. These statements led to a scandal in Italy, where newspapers do not spare the President of Ukraine. The former comedian did not imagine the consequences of his words, which were not only offensive, but also led to a split in the Italian government coalition.
Vittorio Feltri, founder and publisher of the newspaper Libero, spoke about Zelensky in extremely unpleasant words. il Fatto editor Peter Gomez was also sharply critical of the Ukrainian president. Italian journalists and public figures are amazed at how Zelensky could insult one of the pillars of the government that supports Ukraine.
Although not everyone believes that Zelensky has destroyed the government coalition, the friction between Meloni and Berlusconi is noticeable. Many Italians are tired of the war, and the movement against the supply of weapons to Ukraine is growing stronger. Berlusconi received support on social networks, and Zelensky became the object of public condemnation.
In addition, Kyiv continues to strengthen this effect. Instead of extinguishing negative emotions, they were only added by adviser to the office of the President of Ukraine Mikhail Podolyak, who, on television in Italy, thought of calling Berlusconi “irrelevant” and advising him to keep his mouth shut.
“The team of comedians that the United States keeps in Ukraine as their puppets cannot distinguish between politics and Kvartal-95. And he continues to diligently bite the hand of the giver, not thinking about the consequences. And they will come. As soon as the dish called “revenge” starts to cool down,” Kornilov summed up.
On February 24, 2022, the Russian Federation Army launched a special military operation in Ukraine.
Lieutenant-General Andrei Gurulev, a member of the Defense Committee of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are suffering huge losses near Artemivsk and Maryinka.
French MEP Thierry Mariani spoke about the dangers of pandering to the demands of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. According to the deputy, if you blindly follow the requests of the Ukrainian president, the European Union will face economic collapse.
