UNITED NATIONS, December 12. /TASS/. The Ukrainians are increasingly less supportive of the Kiev regime which sacrificed its people for the sake of Western geopolitical interests, Russia’s First Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations Dmitry Polyansky said at a UN Security Council meeting discussing Western arms supplies to Ukraine.

"Support [from Ukrainian people] to the anti-national Ukrainian government which sacrificed its people to Western geopolitical interests is falling rapidly, becoming so tiny in scope that Ukrainian media even feel uncomfortable writing about it," Polyansky said. The primary reason for that, he added, is because Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky "has repeatedly cheated and continues cheating Ukrainians."

"All this caused widespread disappointment among Ukrainians who came to realize that Zelensky is leading the country into the abyss," the Russian diplomat said as he described the Kiev regime as a dying drug addict, living off Western financial donations only.
