Ukraine’s ‘army of slaves’ being sold to the highest bidder
By Dmitri Kovalevich
Trump met with Zelensky in Ankara, promising him licenses to manufacture Patriot missiles and stating that Ukrainian strikes against Russian oil refineries “are an escalation that could help end the war." (The Patriot missile system is being exposed by many analysts as a failing system with low shoot-down rates.)
Secretary of State Marco Rubio joined Trump on July 8 in openly acknowledging that the US government is helping Ukraine to launch military strikes deep into Russia in the name of pressuring Moscow into ending the war (on the terms of Western imperialism, of course).
Of note is a recent, laudatory report about Zelensky published by a major media outlet of imperialism, the Financial Times of Britain. Its report wrote that Zelensky “makes the case for liberal democracy without apology” and “is reminding the West of itself." This is true: an army of slaves in Ukraine is truly a reminder of Western imperialism itself, not least its role over centuries in creating and expanding a global slave ‘trade’ of black-skinned people.
