Zelensky: Two Ukrainian generals dismissed for being ‘traitors’
The Hill ^ | April 1, 2022

Posted on 04/01/2022 5:49:05 AM PDT by Loyalist

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on Thursday that two of his country’s top security officials had been dismissed from their roles as generals for being “traitors.”

“Regarding antiheroes. Now, I do not have time to deal with all the traitors. But gradually they will all be punished,” Zelensky said in a speech.

“That is why the ex-chief of the Main Department of Internal Security of the Security Service of Ukraine Naumov Andriy Olehovych and the former head of the Office of the Security Service of Ukraine in the Kherson region Kryvoruchko Serhiy Oleksandrovych are no longer generals,” he said.

Zelensky did not elaborate on what had led to the two officials being dismissed, though he noted that under the Ukrainian army’s disciplinary statute officers who “have not decided where their homeland is, who violate the military oath of allegiance to the Ukrainian people as regards the protection of our state, its freedom and independence” would “inevitably be deprived of senior military ranks.”

Maybe they were In the pay of the Kremlin.

Maybe they told Zelensky what he didn’t want to hear.

Maybe they didn’t give Zelensky and his cronies their cut.

Who knows?

I call B.S.

If this were a real war, and ANYONE was charged with TREASON at this moment ....

They would be executed, not "dismissed."

Hey, at least they made it out alive. Unlike the 2939584985498494584984 Russian generals who have assumed room temperature in the past few days.

Maybe being “dismissed” means something like that.

When does zelensky get thrown out of office for treason ? Also when do the American taxpayers get back all the money he and his cronies have stolen? Zelensky has over a bill dollars in bank accounts in South America . He sold his country out to western governments so they could launder foreign aid and bribes from Russia and China.

They are not combat generals, but internal security officers.

Yeah, maybe they had a discussion with our realists like Milley, and afterwords Milley told Zelenskyy the generals were traitors, and not thoroughly convinced white rage was a bigger threat than Russia.

Zelensky needs to get off his high horse and admit he's not winning anything holding out - in fact he's costing his citizens everything - life and home and communities because of his ridiculous assumption he's somehow winning something.

Anything is possible in this arena. But Zelenski is the boss and when he says jump, they jump. I’m sure this kind of thing is quite common when things are going south. I’m pulling for the Ukraine by the way. Tough uphill slog though.

Zelenski is running short of cocaine.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he had runners into Poland who will set off explosions....using Russian materials that they confiscated.

I didn’t like Zelensky’s made to order videos from the get go - nor his top aides all with entertainment backgrounds. It was a show from the beginning and each one had his part to play. All for the sake of being able to say they resisted - which cost their citizens their life, home and communities.

You will never convince me the guy gives to hoots about Ukraines people. He’ll be off to his villa in Italy when all is said and done and leave the people to clean up the mess.

I remember reading about 56 men pledging their lives, honor and fortunes in the impossible hope of winning something

He certainly raised the expectations of the men there - but then that was his purpose after banning many of them from leaving the country. There were some very easily read signs from the get go this was a really bad idea - but then our Democratic leadership is always moving forward with bad ideas at the cost to others - and we were behind this, along with Nato using Ukraines men to fight against Russia.

One of the signs was also they were busing all the woman and children out of the country with an estimated 6 milion would leave. I think it's at 4 currently. And it's pretty stunning on how all the nation leaders simply opened theiir doors and just let all these people in....as if they had already pre-determined they would.

I agree with you absolutely...They're dying...he's lying. He was born in Ukraine when it was part of the USSR and speaks fluent Russian, Ukrainian being a second language.

The Ukrainians have been subjected to "We hate Russians" especially since the US backed coup that put the Chocolate King in Office. He wanted no Russian spoken or taught...etc etc....and Zelensky has the same thinking.

Crimea NEVER should have been given to Ukraine and the Donbass area...is predominantly Russian.

As a footnote....those two areas were NOT allowed to vote in the Zelensky election.
