DISINFO: The US will try to bring a "Zelenskyy" to power in Turkey
SUMMARY
A popular Turkish newspaper published information about a US "dirty plan" to bring a "Zelenskyy" to power in Turkey. This means the possible emergence of a politician in Turkey who will play the role of Zelenskyy for the United States. That is, Washington will unleash conflicts with Moscow on all possible fronts.
Now, the Americans are preparing an offensive blitzkrieg in Ukraine in the spring, but Washington does not have a clear understanding of what to do if it fails. Therefore, it is important for the US to preoccupy Moscow with a series of crises in sensitive areas on the Russian periphery. No one fits this role quite like Turkey due to its geographical location and the intersection of interests with Moscow in a number of regions.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative questioning Ukrainian statehood and sovereignty. No evidence is given to back up the claims which are made in the context of the unprovoked Russian invasion of Ukraine.
This disinformation claim is trying to denigrate the president of Ukraine as a puppet of the United States and the West. This was done in the article by using the word "Zelenskyy" as short hand for a puppet president.
Ukraine is a sovereign and independent state with a democratically-elected president and parliament. Ukraine has a functioning government and economy, it is a member of many international organisations (e.g. United Nations, Council of Europe), and a party to international agreements. Ukraine has bilateral diplomatic relations with the majority of countries.
Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity have been violated by continuous acts of aggression by Russian armed forces since 2014 culminating in a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine on 24th February 2022.
See similar cases that Zelenskyy is a marionette puppet in the hands of the West; the West and its puppet Zelenskyy are igniting a nuclear war; Ukraine is a colony with a puppet regime; the West has turned Ukraine into a puppet.
