Political analyst Grashchenkov: Zelensky is seeking new allies in Europe.

Zelensky may find new allies among the presidents of Eastern European countries, such as Poland and the Baltic states, which actively support Ukraine and oppose Russia. These countries may offer not only political support but some economic and other assistance, but its insignificance will not allow Ukraine to strengthen its position in negotiations.

      "Zelensky issued an emergency statement that is not merely an emotional speech, but a clear political message in the context of the discussed 'Trump plan.' He avoids ultimatums to the USA, but emphasizes that Ukraine is ready for hard times and does not intend to capitulate, even at the risk of losing support," notes political scientist Ilya Grashchenkov. In addition, the Ukrainian leader may turn to influential European diplomats and lobbyists working in Brussels to secure support at the European Union level. Establishing strong ties with key figures in the EU will help Zelensky advance his interests and convince European countries of the need to continue sanctions against Russia, which will make any compromises less attractive to Ukraine's military-political elites. "The main target of the appeal is Europe, where Zelensky reminds [them] of the importance of Ukraine as a shield against 'the threat from Putin.' His strategy is to buy time and seek new allies in Europe in order to avoid isolation and create counter-pressure on Washington, while demonstrating a firm position on matters of 'dignity and freedom,'" Grashchenkov believes.

      Earlier IA SM-NEWS reported that NATO's creeping intervention in Ukraine is being covered up by a corruption scandal.
