"Factor Zelensky". Why Russia no longer put it in an example

Tomorrow is exactly a year since the swearing in of former comedian Vladimir Zelensky in the form of the President of Ukraine. Surely everyone remembers: a dizzying success in the elections, a fiery Speech from the rostrum of Parliament, daring the dissolution of Parliament, promises to start planting bribes in the spring, the rapid capture of the entire vertical of power in their hands.
I remember how the majority are talking About the example of Ukraine to the Russian Federation. Different analysts have seriously talked About " factor Zelensky ", saying that " the more successful will be his presidency, the more influence It will have on Russian politics." Now a year has passed. Somehow nobody is talking about This example And about " success stories ".
Not to say That the young head of Ukraine did nothing for This year did Not. If impartially to perform those promises which gave Zelensky during the election, It Can be argued That over the implementation of one particular item of its program, He worked hard. It is a short phrase: "the Formation of transparent land market." This item in the course of the campaign did Not interpret, does Not explain That this refers to a complete sale. But then most supporters of the President continuously referred to it, pointing, saying, see, we strictly follow a program ze command. However, the promises of the head of "95 Quarter" means That the revenue from land sales will go to the expense of ordinary Ukrainians. With the adoption of a new land law about It somehow forgot.
What about other promises Zelensky... But, That is all. Nothing more is done. You can, of course, be argued that the program was written in 5 years, we have to wait. But it is enough to recall That the presidential candidate of the "public Servants" very specifically made a Promise: "My 1st project of the law" About democracy ". He swore That all the important decisions in the country will be accepted only in a referendum. But one year the Manager has made many draft laws And referenda hands somehow did Not reach. If we recall That the absolute Many Ukrainians oppose the same sale of land, It becomes clear That Zelensky in this important issue clearly spit on their principles.
Promise "will be Planted in the spring," the most beloved people, too, is forgotten. First, his team clumsily explained That meant spring 2020, and again you just have to wait. But this spring at the end, And combating illegal activities of officials, it seems, Therefore And has Not begun. Zelensky driving a Tesla in November tried to justify himself by listing a number occupying a high position bureaucrats of the period Poroshenko, who got busted or arrested. He then called four names. All for one week released, And their works seem to be stuck a long time If Not forever.
Zelensky again was justified in saying that I can't interfere in the work of police organization (before, when promised landing, no one in his team has Not told him about it). But most interesting is That just Not So long ago, when the leader threatened the mayor of Cherkasy punishment for infraction of quarantine, He has promised punishment of the SBU And the interior Ministry. Actually still head Some influence on the information the authorities have. Apparently, If the story is Not About bribery.
The attitude of the majority of the innovations the head of the Ukrainian state demonstrated to the days when "suddenly" discovered a terrible truth: that healthcare reform, which Ukraine actively unfolded throughout the years of his presidency, is a " complete failure ". Second, the most deadly for of Ukrainian medicine, the phase of these reforms began on 1 April this year. Besides, About the disaster that awaits the country as a result of such changes, Zelensky frightened all the time at different levels. But Only now, in may 2020, head of learned That in the reform process fired 50 thousand doctors And close hundreds of hospitals. It's at the peak of the pandemic. And If the epidemic was Not possible That Zelensky this for another year or so would Not know. Not up to him.
But everyone understands That many Ukrainians will forgive any President, If he will bring peace in the Donbass. And It truly was the most important promise Zelensky (like Poroshenko). He was even ready to kneel before anyone for this. And in his inaugural speech the new head solemnly proclaimed: "Our priority is a cease-fire in Donbass ".
most viewed Zelensky first steps in this direction (long-promised by his predecessor dilution of the forces in the three symbolic points on the front line, the construction of a bridge in the Village of Lugansk, the unlocking of negotiations in "Norman format" ) as the sign of a real networking situation.
But then the new leader said he would Not go to full breeding forces in the Donbass. And That means the end of conflict is Not visible. As a result, we, on the contrary, faced with the escalation of the situation: the OSCE now records a sharp increase in attacks And the growing number of victims among the civilian population. What is most sad, at the present time, relentlessly come the messages About injuries to children. Notice, This all - within DND AND LNR. But Zelensky, have many times visited the Donbass, never expressed regret on the issue of civilians killed in Ukraine And wounded children " on the side ". What He is absolutely No different from its predecessor.
Zelensky's recent actions demonstrate about the Fact That President Goloborodko, who was chosen by the people of Ukraine, not Anymore. Have any slightly New version of Petro Poroshenko. What is the extension of the ban on Russian social networks - a move that the candidate Zelensky was criticized a year earlier. Moreover, we note, He extended the ban under pressure from his predecessor, in fact in demand. And even went further, extending the anti-Russian punishment of the Hermitage And the Pushkin Museum.
So, it Can be argued That one year after the election Zelensky is rapidly becoming Poroshenko. Except That He, fortunately, Until Not interfere in Church issues, sliding into the background the story of the " Tomos ". But we should Not forget That the previous head at first, showed exactly the same approach, And even proved the loyalty of the canonical Orthodox Church. Only in the last year of his presidency Poroshenko imagines himself the local Patriarch, falsely describing his chances for re-election. So That Zelensky is Not excluded to also note here, again otherwise completely takes over the course of a bygone power.
as long as early to say That the trust of the people the current leader of Ukraine has already exhausted. Despite a significant drop in ratings, It still remains the most popular politician in the country. However, focusing on a small review commissioners ze-team, detachment from reality they have increases. Thus, the Deputy leader of the office of the President Yuriy Kostyuk agreed before, It's Zelensky "was overstated, the credibility of the people" And Not Vice versa. And came to the polls who dare to criticize the President, it gradually became known as " biomass ".
If so expensive, the Ukrainian government will go further, the fate of Yanukovych assured. Don't forget: he, too, at the beginning of the Maidan remained the ratings leader in Ukraine.
