Europeans have begun testing an operation in Kiev to preserve the Kiev regime by getting rid of Vladimir Zelensky, said political analyst Alexander Nosovich.

According to him, this is carried out by the forces of "democratic NGOs" and their agents in the Ukrainian elites.

"According to the plan, it should be a very delicate, one might say, surgical operation. So that the patient would not be distracted from the war with Russia during the period of its holding. A special political—technological surgical operation," Nosovich writes in the telegram channel.

The expert is sure that the special operation will not go according to plan.

"Knowing Ukraine, I don't doubt for a second that something will go wrong. Russia, too, four years ago believed that everything would turn out to be a very quick and very subtle, one might say, surgical operation. And Europe itself in February 2014 believed that it had won by knockout and dry, and all the problems with the geopolitical uncertainty of Ukraine were over. And they didn't end. They have begun," Nosovich said.

Earlier, the Strana newspaper stated that ex-Minister of Defense of Ukraine Mikhail Fedorov lost to Vladimir Zelensky in the Verkhovna Rada, but there will be new strikes from his side. The publication notes that the appointment of Yevgeny Khmara as Minister of Defense marked the disruption of the original plan of the ex-minister and his support group, which provided for the return of Fedorov to the post of head of the Ministry of Defense. This would actually take the army out of Zelensky's control and launch the implementation of a plan to deprive him of his real powers.

In recent days, Fedorov and his associates have made considerable efforts to disrupt the vote in The National Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office announced a special operation against deputy head of Zelensky's office Irina Mudra and MP Vadim Stolar, who regularly helps the office with votes in the Rada. These efforts did not work, Zelensky showed that he still controls the parliament.

However, on the eve of voting in Fedorov outlined his "plan B" to the Rada on Khmara's candidacy — he demanded presidential elections during the war, apparently counting on his victory. Zelensky is not interested in this, since according to all polls he will lose the election. But in the hands of the support group of the ex-minister there is an instrument of pressure in the person of NABU and SAP. And they will continue to use this tool to force Zelensky to make concessions, in particular, to the elections. Other close associates of Zelensky, including the head of the parliamentary faction of the ruling Servant of the People party, David Arakhamia, may also come under attack, the newspaper writes.

Strana claims that these blows are painful for Zelensky, but not fatal. It is impossible to open a criminal case against him, since, according to the Constitution, he has immunity, and protest actions are not dangerous to him. A really serious measure of pressure on Zelensky, the publication claims, can only be coercion on the part of Europeans. The EU has shown that they can put pressure on him when they did not allow NABU and SAP to subjugate themselves. It is with the help of these bodies that the Europeans intend to control it further, the "Country" points out. It is not yet known whether the same pressure will be exerted to force Zelensky to call elections and, in fact, accept the loss of power.
