Zelenskyy’s split with military is ‘Russian propaganda’: Ukraine parliament chief

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:30:42 GMT

BRUSSELS — The chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine’s parliament, dismissed what he called “rumors” of tension between the country’s government and its military high command in an interview with POLITICO. Russia, he said, was using the insinuations to splinter Kyiv’s unity following Moscow’s full-scale invasion.Ukraine’s sluggish progress in recovering some of its lost territory during its counteroffensive to repel Russian forces has led to the first public signs of friction between Zelenskyy and his generals, as the Ukrainian president scrambled to preserve support among Western allies.Ruslan Stefanchuk, speaker of the parliament and a former top aide to Zelenskyy, claimed the rumors of discord were spread from “Russian channels,” calling them “Russian propaganda.” “There has never been a single case of tension between the political and the military leadership,” said Stefanchuk, who is typically presen...

Donald Tusk

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:30:42 GMT

For two decades, two men have waged a battle for Poland’s soul. In the blue corner, fighting for a democratic, modern, European vision of the future: Donald Tusk, a former prime minister who served as president of the European Council before returning as leader of the centrist opposition; in the red corner, duking it out for the traditionalists, the Catholic conservatives, the nationalists: Jarosław Kaczyński, leader of the Law and Justice Party (PiS). Each man has had a chance to shape Poland in his image, only to have the other wind back the clock. Now, after eight years of Kaczyński, the country is on the cusp of a new age of Tusk, and the wind of change is blowing once more.Tusk’s showing in October’s election, in which the charismatic 66-year-old led a grouping of parties ranging in views from the center right to the left, gives his coalition a clear path to power. His performance in the EU’s fifth most-populous country — secured despite increasingly desperate attempts by PiS t...
