Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will publish an anthology book featuring his wartime speeches from the past year, to be released in early December, the Penguin Random House subsidiary Crown announced on Monday.
The book, titled A Message from Ukraine, will contain 16 speeches delivered since Zelensky became president in 2019, most of them likely to be from the past year. Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, half a decade before Zelensky took over the nation’s top office, but the West reacted tepidly to Moscow’s colonization of Ukraine’s Crimean peninsula at the time, leading to Russian leader Vladimir Putin announcing a full-scale national invasion of Ukraine in February. Since the escalation in February, Putin has announced the “annexation” of four more regions of Ukraine: Kherson, which connects Russia to Crimea; Zaporizhzhia; and the two eastern Donbas regions, Luhansk and Donetsk.

Zelensky needs to study-up on Duong Van Minh in Vietnam, Lon Nol in Cambodia, Al-Maliki in Iraq and Ashraf Ghani in Afghanistan - what happens to US supported regimes once the DC political support and the money dry up.
Vol 2: Hey Joe! Send More Pieroghies!
A raucous romp through the war and money laundries!
Yeah, kinda like Obama did for Queen Elizabeth. Maybe if you buy Zelensky’s book you will get a free green T shirt with “I went broke for Ukraine and all I got was this crummy T shirt”printed on it.
Before Christmas or before Hannukah? After all, Zelinskyy is Jewish, ...
but then so was Jesus. Never mind.
Common sense would tell anyone that the proceeds would go to charity, and the article even makes it clear that they do.
Yet 24 posters so far did not have the common sense to know that or even to read the article.
Sancti Volodymyrii Zelenskii, ora pro nobis.
The book deal should be good for about a billion or so in his off-shore accounts.
Judging from the daily garbage posted 15 times a day they most likely wrote half his material. I’ll wait for the 3 x 5 Cliff Notes Version.
Zalensky musta read Jim Wright’s book “how to retire like a Rockefeller”
His charity foundation no doubt.
From the article:
“The publisher announced that proceeds from the book would fund United24, a Ukrainian government program created by Zelensky to collect international donations in the aftermath of the escalation of the eight-year-old invasion this year. United24 allows donors to help Ukraine fund both humanitarian and military efforts – providing even a program to allow supporters to “dronate” an armed drone for use in fighting Russia.”
Jumping the shark...
If that AOC town hall was any indicator, that support may wane sooner rather than later. People who can’t make ends meet at home tend to get surly when their tax dollars are being flushed down the toilet overseas.
Who else thought of Barack Obama giving a set of his recorded speeches to Queen Elizabeth?

Pardon my cynicism
Yes, a charity to help Ukraine, common sense should have told you he would not be personally profiting.
You are absolutely right! I’m using the very same common sense that told me the Clinton’s were not personally profiting from the “Clinton Foundation.”
