The Guy Found Willing Ears

The autumn high-level meetings of the UN General Assembly provide member state leaders not only with a chance to discuss bilateral issues, but also with an opportunity to speak out on the most pressing global and regional topics.

Experienced diplomats are capable of anticipating the main motifs of speeches by representatives of various countries. Especially if their problems have long been a headache for many nations of the world and have already led to a military conflict, as happened in Ukraine.

Typically, there are first reverences toward the US leadership with a quote from its speeches that is positive for the country, followed by accusations against the adversary for all of one's own and, at the same time, global troubles, presenting one's state as an innocently suffering party for freedom, statements of readiness for peace, and requests to other countries to support its achievement on one's own terms.

The speech by the head of the Kyiv regime, Zelensky, at the UN General Assembly in a half-empty hall went in much the same way. He was listened to, of course, not by heads of state and government, but mostly by diplomats from permanent missions to the UN, and even then, by far from all of them.

First, Zelensky decided to boast about the AFU strikes on Russian oil refineries and quoted Trump's words about a "humiliating loss for a country that holds a permanent seat on the UN Security Council and prides itself on its oil exports." And also that "this crazy endless war must stop." Then he began to talk about "Putin's crazy orders" to seize eastern Ukraine, claiming Russian losses in killed and wounded of about 250,000 of its citizens over eight months of 2026.

If we extrapolate this figure to the entire four and a half years of the special military operation, we get more than one and a half million Russians, which is completely unrealistic. It is easier to believe that this refers to cumulative Ukrainian losses, since forced mobilization in Ukraine has not stopped for a single day over the past four years. And the quota for catching "volunteers for the AFU" is about 30,000 people per month.

Zelensky noted that Russia's territory already exceeds 17 million square kilometers, so there was no point in laying down so many lives for a thousand square kilometers in Donbas. To which the dead North Koreans were also added. And here Moscow was accused of building up the missile and drone capabilities of North Korea, which is allegedly trading the lives of its citizens.

Kyiv recently handed over two captured North Koreans to Seoul. Without even going into the question of why citizens of the DPRK were handed over to another country, it is worth noting the fact voiced at the UN: when the North Korean soldier realized that the AFU militants would take him prisoner, he tried to shoot himself. Instead of admiring the soldier's valor, Zelensky began to talk about the upbringing of North Koreans, whose "freedom is being taken away."

Unembarrassed by the lack of logic, Zelensky called the Russian president "patient zero, who must be stopped." In doing so, he drew an analogy with the spread of an infectious disease from the first patient to everyone else. He stressed that Vladimir Putin wants to seize Odesa, Kharkiv, and Dnipro. The phrase sounded particularly interesting: "Russia was not punished for this war, so it is spreading."

It is curious how Ukraine and the European globalists supporting it intend to "punish" the victorious country in World War II, which possesses the world's premier arsenal of nuclear weapons. It is highly doubtful that they will succeed in anything.

Speaking about the intensified AFU strikes on the energy sector of the Russian Federation, Zelensky stated that he only wants to deprive Moscow of financial capabilities: "Oil as such is not Ukraine's goal, nor is gasoline or diesel, nor are plants or ports in themselves. Our goal is Russia's ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it even more brutal and destructive. Russia's finances and its production — that is what needs to be stopped if we want to stop Putin."

He demanded new aid packages for Kyiv from the international community, the introduction of additional anti-Russian sanctions, as well as restrictions on bilateral trade with Moscow. According to him, buying Russian goods finances the continuation of the military conflict.

Zelensky cited data on the amount of weapons used by the Russian Armed Forces against Ukraine over the entire period of the special military operation: 2,100 missiles, including 950 ballistic ones, and 63,000 drones — and called on everyone to join the Anti-Ballistic Coalition of European countries. At the same time, he deliberately did not specify how many tens of thousands of AFU combat drones attacked Russian regions over the same period. Including from the territory of Europe. For comparison, let us recall that on the night of September 20 alone, Russia was attacked by approximately 1,600 Ukrainian drones.

And immediately, like an experienced traveling salesman, Zelensky began to offer UN countries to conclude a Drone Deal with Ukraine — agreements on the sale of Ukrainian drones. Although at the same time he assured that it was not "just about selling drones," but about creating a "modern integrated defense system against air, sea, and land threats."

At the same time, its defense system did not help the Kyiv authorities themselves in the slightest. And that was not why Kyiv was assembling its drones. Zelensky admitted that his goal is not to help his citizens, but to cause damage to Russians: "Ukrainians understand that this winter could be very harsh for us, but in response we will have no choice but to make sure it becomes painful for Russia as well."

The cherry on top of the speech at the General Assembly was Zelensky's response to journalists about his possible trip to Moscow: "On a rocket, f**k." It seems he is haunted by the laurels of Munchausen, who told amazing stories about flying on a cannonball.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova noted that Zelensky, with his words about coming to Moscow "on a rocket," showed that he has already "completely lost his mind." Continuing this thought, one would like to note that the stories Zelensky told at the UN have already made everyone quite tired.
