Its a very odd thing, this personalization of a whole country. A tv show analysis of leaders.
1. This guy is not his country. Ukraine is a real entity of 40+ million people, not a tv show.
2. This guy has to deliver a message to a whole mess of different people with different worldviews and agendas. Most of those people are not like you and wont react like you do.
3. This guy has an agenda that differs from yours, in various ways and to various degrees on different points.
Frankly I find commentary like yours simplistic and disappointing.
What he says is interesting due to the insight into the situation at hand. This has to be analyzed on several levels. Messaging (to whom, for what purpose, expected reception), Strategic (what does he want to receive, why x is particularly necessary), Implications (expectations, plans and fears on the part of Ukrainian leadership).

Ukraine is a country. The Ukraine is a region.
