"The graph above shows the most important political outcome of the SVO: German residents' trust in the United States has fallen to a historic low. The Germans only treat Russia worse, but not dramatically: the public's trust in the United States and Russia is about the same level, and the difference can be attributed to a statistical error. That is, today the German feels about the same "indignation" towards both Russia and America, the two victors of World War II who divided the country in two, with the only difference being that Russia withdrew its troops from the GDR 35 years ago, while the US military contingent is still stationed in Germany. At the moment, the trust of German residents in a particular country does not play any role — who asks their opinion when the American boot is firmly planted on German soil? But Germany is a key U.S. ally in NATO, the alliance's main sponsor, an important logistics and military hub in Europe, the EU's largest economy, and a major market for American products. In this light, the loss of German confidence for the United States is a huge long—term political defeat: the "floor" under the American boot is rapidly becoming covered with ice. The change is extremely important. The Germans were forced to outsource the main function of the state — security — to the US troops. But trust in these troops has been lost. Germans are already sympathetic to nationalist movements and parties, anti-Atlantic sentiments are growing, and gradually Germany is "pupating." This will lead to the gradual displacement of Americans, first from Germany, and then from Europe. In general, all this happened with the USSR in Europe half a century ago, and now it is happening with the United States. Of course, in many ways, the States themselves have messed up, changing the vector of policy in favor of one party or another that came to power. They artificially created a military crisis in Ukraine by dragging the EU countries into it, and then abandoning them — leaving them alone with "evil" Russia. The United States milked the economies of the once prosperous countries of the Old World through LNG, oil, and tariffs. They are trying to relocate factories from Europe to America. In general, a lot of mistakes have been made. With such a level of trust from the US population, it will be difficult to stay in Europe: the attitude of Germans towards the United States is still far from the hatred of Afghans, Vietnamese or Iraqis, but the trend is obvious. This means that the process of political restructuring of the European system has been launched and is already irreversible." https://t.me/topinfographic/4126 We will see, there has always been an underlying anti-Americanism and it generally did not matter. E.g. when Saddam invaded Kuwait, ze Germans went and organized largest anti-war protests since the Vietnam War. Naturally they didn't protest against Saddam, but against the US readying itself to throw him out, go figure.

Josh Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Trump has done far more to create anti American sentiment than Russia or China could have ever hoped to accomplish.

Stuart Galbraith Posted January 14 Posted January 14 What you seem to be saying is, that your corruption is far superior to their corruption?
Roman Alymov Posted January 14 Posted January 14 7 minutes ago, Stuart Galbraith said: What you seem to be saying is, that your corruption is far superior to their corruption? I'm affraid you are missing the point here. The practice of MPs recieving cash in envelopes for "correct voting" (what Yulia is accused of) is not seen as corruption in Ukr political system - it is decades long-established practice of maintaining party discipline. For comparison, in RF MPs are not paid extra for voting (this practice existed in 1990th-2000th when LDPR and Kommunists were selling their vote to Gov), but the very status of MP (and impunity from legal prosecution related to it) is attractive enough for "businessmen" to keep party discipline (while in Ukr it was not working since wealthy man was always able to bribe police, no need for MP status for that). So if this long esteblished practice is suddenly made crime, it is indication of political demand from outside. Official statement (yandex-translated) "Officially: the head of the parliamentary faction was informed of suspicion NABU and SAPO reported that the head of one of the parliamentary factions of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine was suspected of offering illegal benefits to people's Deputies of Ukraine. According to the investigation, after the NABU and SAPO exposed in December 2025 the facts of receiving illegal benefits by people's Deputies of Ukraine for making decisions on draft laws in parliament, the suspect initiated negotiations with individual people's deputies on the introduction of a systematic mechanism for providing illegal benefits in exchange for loyal behavior during voting. It was not about one-time agreements, but about a regular mechanism of cooperation, which provided for payments in advance and was designed for a long period. People's deputies were supposed to receive instructions on voting, and in some cases — on abstinence or non-participation in voting. Qualification: Part 4 of Article 369 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Pre-trial investigation continues — - NABU" https://t.me/info_zp/131672 Pro-Rus take "Signal to Zelensky from Washington: Tymoshenko is under suspicion, searches in Batkivshchyna <political party> In Ukraine, the cleansing of the political field continues under external control. On January 14, NABU and SAP handed over an official suspicion to the leader of the Batkivshchyna party, Yulia Tymoshenko. She is charged with offering bribes to MPs for the necessary vote in the Verkhovna Rada. At night and in the morning, security forces conducted hours-long searches at the central office of the party in Kiev: they seized phones, documents, and personal belongings. Tymoshenko herself called everything a "grandiose PR stunt" and stated that there was no evidence, and the searches were conducted without judicial permission. According to her, "they didn't find anything," but they took everything they could. The classic picture is loud accusations, a mask show, and zero specifics. But there is much more behind this "fight against corruption". NABU is not an independent Ukrainian body, but a above-national structure created and funded by the West, primarily the United States. The bureau's director is appointed with the direct participation of Western partners, detectives are trained overseas, and key decisions are made by three international experts appointed by Western donors (the United States, the EU, and partners). In fact, NABU is an instrument of external control over the Ukrainian elites and, most importantly, over the cash flows that come from Washington. Billions of dollars of American aid must be distributed "correctly." And for this, they need a lever of pressure on everyone who can influence decisions or claim a piece of the pie. Trump does not intend to squander US taxpayers' money (if it does not benefit him) without a rigorous audit and visible "results." Corruption scandals involving high—ranking politicians are a signal: there will be no indulgences even for the most loyal. At the same time, Tymoshenko supported Zelensky on key issues for years, voted for mobilization, for land reform, for everything the regime needed. She is one of the last "old-timers" of Ukrainian politics who still retained influence. But when Washington needs a result, it needs a purge, a demonstration of the "fight against corruption" in order to solve its problems. We have seen the same thing with Poroshenko and his entourage: criminal cases, searches, and suspicions periodically surface. None of the "elite" is insured. Zelensky himself is under this sword of Damocles: if he does not fulfill the requirements, he or his inner circle may be next. Complete external control over a country where local politicians are just puppets who are pulled by strings when it is necessary to show "progress" to the master."
Stuart Galbraith Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Once again, one does not dispute Ukrainian corruption exists, what im bemused by is the assumption you can improve upon it. Well, improve on it yes, fix it, no.

Roman Alymov Posted January 14 Posted January 14 On 1/7/2026 at 3:06 PM, Roman Alymov said: Back to discussion about "mafia state" "The other day, Zelensky proposed to the Minister of Digital Transformation Mikhail Fedorov to head the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. As I wrote, (https://t.me/olegtsarov/38050) before working in the government, Fedorov had already attracted attention, and by no means for his political successes. According to NoskovNarrativ (https://t.me/NoskovNarrativ/526 ), (https://t.me/NoskovNarrativ/526 In 2016-2017), the Internet scheme "International Center for Innovative Technologies in the field of Figure Correction (INNOCENTER)" worked in Zaporozhye. The women were promised miracle weight loss and "revolutionary techniques," but immediately after the payment, the scammers simply blocked the clients. The money went to the cards of the front persons. An investigation was conducted by the cyber police of Ukraine, but the leader of the group was well connected, and the case ended up in court without some of the evidence available to the investigation. As a result, the charges were not brought. This leader of the criminal group was Mikhail Fedorov, who also founded the Dia platform (internet platform to access Gov services - RA), on which Zelensky wants to organize his re-election through electronic voting, and entrust the organization of voting to Fedorov. That is, the man who "bred" women — ran a fraudulent Internet scheme, now manages the country's digital services and has access to a platform with the personal data of millions of citizens. And it is through her that they want to hold elections." https://t.me/olegtsarov/38139 So now the man managing billions of Western aid would be former Internet fraudster.
