UnHerd's Freddie Sayers meets Oleksiy Arestovych.
Read the accompanying article: unherd.com/2024/01/oleksiy-ar...
Listen to the podcast: plnk.to/unherd?to=page
At the start of the war, Oleksiy Arestovych was the spokesman for President Zelenskyy and one of the most recognisable faces on Ukrainian TV. His nightly briefings on the status of the war earned him the nickname the ‘therapist-in-chief’ and at one point his approval ratings were second only to the President. Since then, he has become a fierce critic of the Zelenskyy administration and has left the country to avoid multiple prosecutions. Now he plans to run for president against Zelenskyy at the next election.
In his first Western media interview since his fall-out with the Government, he spoke from the United States to Freddie Sayers.

One thing overlooked in this interesting multi cultural Federation idea is that based on the past Russia will keep at it until they take over Ukraine... openly or by stealth.. Putin stated in his interview with Carlson that Ukraine will come back to Russia.. This is a nice idea but would you trust a country that has Madeira it it's goal to annex your country piecemeal and then by attempt to take the capital and overthrow kill or imprison your government and annex the whole country? Putin has imperialist intentions towards Ukraine, evidenced by he has been happy to cost the lives of hundreds of thousands of Russians, destroy a huge area of Ukraine, kill maim Ukrainians, and raze so many cities towns and villages to rubble and pollute so much agricultural land.. not to mention staying that Ukrainians are Nazis and shouldn't exist! Either this man is genuine and trusting! Or He is pro Russian... and wants to set a situation in Ukraine that makes it easier for Putin to move in and take over on many fronts and bring Ukraine into the Federation or under Putin's control like Belarus.. But one would want to take him at his word that he is all for an independent Ukraine. If he is genuine and he is being silenced in Ukraine that is not in Ukraine's interests or security into the future...that is too akin to Putin's method of operating.. silencing other voices.. It must be difficult in Ukraine to know who is genuine politically fir an independent Ukraine and who isn't. Having watched documentaries on how pro Russian Hungarian oligarchs and politicians worked with Russian Oligarchs to basically buy up control of major businesses and the media and keep Orban's party in power ... and that in a member state of the EU ....I can understand why other ex Soviet countries do not trust Russia at all..

The following are involved in the investigation of murders north of Kyiv (not only in Bucha): - Task Force on Accountability for Crimes Committed in Ukraine, - International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine, - UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine.

Isn't it completely obvious that there will be no meaningful, i.e. balanced, partnerships between those who come in to Ukraine to do business after the conflict is over? The scene then will mirror to even greater extent what occurred regarding the ex-Warsaw Pact nations that joined the EU after the Soviet Union fell. They lost all their in-country industries and businesses to outsiders who then proceeded to use the cheap labour there to reduce their bottom line costs. Ukraine is already being bought up by outsiders and this process can only expand due to the desperate needs of whatever regime is left there after this is all over. If Mr Arestovych truly believes there will be some equal partnership between foreign concerns and those still operating in Ukraine I'd like to have some of whatever he is smoking. They will simply take over and any concept of sovereignty Ukraine has will be totally illusory and be only for the consumption of the terminally naive.

@mafaldared3612 4 месяца назад

His idea of an independent Ukraine, neutral, and an estate embracing all ethnicities and giving them the same rights is not new. Before the colour coup orquestrated by the west to overthrow the democratically elected present to put a puppet of the USA and begin the ethnic hatred between Russians and Ukrainians which have a common history going back centuries, Ukraine was already an independent nation and neutral. Russia is European as much as Ukraine is. Since times of Peter the great Russia has always looked to Europe and be part of it. Unfortunately, the endless USA confrontation with Russia is a failing policy of neo-cons. The plan was to divide Russia and share the cake. Undesrtandably, Russia that has been invaded many times, being the last by Germany, has real security concerns. Likewise, this security agreement between many players is neither his idea. Russia has framed that idea to address their security concerns from an ever expanding nato and from an offensive nato which goal is to dominate globally. NATO, for definition is a North Atlantic alliance. Now is also on the pacific, and wants to get into the doors of Russia. Crimea has always been Russian. Kruchef gave it as a present to Ukraine. They had agreements between the two for Russia to keep their naval float. If anyone believes that nato would just walk in and take what is not theirs must be living in Alice wonderland!

Your comment is verry much worth reading. On one point I have to disagree. As a german with russian roots I disagree that Russia is european. It is true that Russia allways wanted to be be recognized as european, but this is not enough. Europe has also recognize Russia as european for it to be european and they clearly have rejected Russia in this matter. The recent events lead to an Identity crisis for many russians and they now clearly pivot away from europe (and western culture). This is represented by the diplomatic work with the global south and the increasing cooperation with countries like china, India and iran. I believe that putin was the most pro-European russian leader that has ever been in power and for him it must have been verry sobering to understand that russia will never be accepted by the europeans and that he never can trust them. I personaly become depressed when I look how Germany is behaving towards Russia. Have a good day!

@mafaldared3612 4 месяца назад

@@tyrantonion6660 What I meant is that Russia as a continent is European and Asian. The population pol is by far of European ancestry (Slavs). After the collapse of the Soviet Union they felt culturally closer to Europe. And Putin was very keen on the idea of being part of European institutions. The USA saw a crumbled Russia after the demise of the Soviet Union and was not much interested in Russia. The reforms that came after were somewhat chaotic One can say that the west did not play fairly on this. The USA in the meantime, seeing a weak Russia, started to expand nato and the EU to Eastern Europe. So one can argue that there was still this idea of Cold War mentality, where two different blocks exist, and that liberal democracy should be pushed far afield no matter what. Also, I believe the road to integrate Russia into the European institutions would have been arduous as there was still a lot of animosity against Russia by central and Eastern European countries because of the Soviet Era During the Bucarest conference on nato expansion to Georgia and Ukraine, Putin said very clearly that this was the red line. And Angela Merkel pointed this out to her European and western partners. By the way, I totally agree on you last comment of the attitude of Germany towards Russia. Clearly Germany is subjugated to the USA and playing against their interests. And the Green Party the worst

Lex travelled to Ukraine to do interviews (he also wanted to travel to Russia, but felt real dangerous so he either did not even go there - there is no war in Russia - or he felt he would never return back from Russia). Lex has never published the interview with Arestovich and has never even mentioned he did such an interview with Arestovich. Then Arestovich was speaking quite the opposite from what he is saying now. I have been following very closely Arestovich since 2013, because I've been interested (I live in Russia myself): Arestovich very easily can change his mind 180 degrees if "motivated", and I think the Russian motivated him enough.

What I agree with this man about is the peculiarities of all countries. For a long time, I did not understand why some people say that there should be proper democracy in other countries. Why should anyone decide how to live the right life for others? If the Arabs want a monarchy and traditions, that's their business, and you can't shout that they need democracy and same-sex marriage. It's the same with China. It's the same with Russia. If they want to be totalitarian or traditional, let them be, after all. It is difficult to demand and call others names if they want to live the way they want. I think it's time for everyone to understand this.

I've always adhered to the view that Ukraine should be more wise when dealing with Russia, because we do not have resources to fight Russia and win, but when the war started and there were news about negotiations and that Putin and the russian side were asking for negotiations Arestovich was bragging in his online streams that the russians were begging for negotiations and also saying that Ukraine would not be having anything with Putin. Now he is saying absolutely different things which are more wise although the only difference - Ukraine lost at least 150K military and civilian lives (that's my estimation) due to their negligence and wrong estimations.

To be honest with you, any parties that had Azov or Right Sector right wind ideology have never gotten more than 2-5% on any elections. The polls clearly show that there are less than 5% of Ukrainians that support their ideas. But there is a more moderate version of nationalism, which still puts the ideas of the ukrainian language, church, army and narrowly defined cultural memory which excludes many layers of ukrainian culture which was created during the time Ukraine was in different empires. And this narrow ideas usually don't get any more than 20% which Arestovich mentioned. This is the reason Arestovich came up with his Fifth project, to unite all ukrainias under a richer answer to the question : "What is Ukraine and why do we exist?" "We are descendants of the country called Rus' which was one of the biggest players thousand years ago (with soft s at the end) and we unite together to defend our right to be different and create the best environment for the growth of all kinds, where the human potential and curiosity stands at the core" .

Are these the actions of a man who wanted to generate a war with the West? Also, take into consideration that Putin has come in for a lot of criticism for clearly wishing to create good relations with the West upon becoming president in 2000. He broached the idea of Russia joining NATO. He did this at least twice. He even broached the idea of Russia joining the European Union. He was pilloried for years for constantly talking about "our western partners". He was the first or one of the first to call George W Bush after 9/11 and offer Russia's help. Which he gave gladly in the Afghanistan operation which followed.

Arestovich, ex-adviser to the office of the President of Ukraine, man of the year for changing shoes while jumping! Today he has also become Russian! Ukrainians are always like that! It’s just that Arestovich quickly navigates which way the wind is blowing! Why did Arestovich “change his shoes”? Arestovich simply leaves the sinking ship like a rat! Arestovich is a real chameleon! who is interested, look at the pictures "Lusya Arestovich" Oleksiy Arestovych - Lusya Arestovich caramel is a former Ukrainian intelligence officer, blogger, actress, political, military columnist and LGBTQ activist. Arestovych is an organizer of psychological seminars and trainings and a charity fund for psychological support to the military.

Continuing the war by whatever means the West can cook up will not change the ultimate outcome. As Obama once remarked, Russia has escalatory dominance when it comes to Ukraine. Russia simply CANNOT afford to lose this conflict and it has all the means at its disposal to win. Yes, it may take time, but when Russia's national security and stability for all the years to come is at stake why be at all concerned about how long it might take? However long it might take the thing MUST be won. There is no way Russia can or should tolerate being surrounded by enemies at its front door. That thought is anathema and an impossible one to accept. No matter what it takes Russia will do it, she will bring about the outcomes she needs for her security in perpetuity. Mr Arestovych and all others seeking to postpone that outcome are simply callous egotists who care nothing about losing endless Ukrainian lives as long as they profit in some way from the pro-war processes they are advocating for.

Try not to get information from pro-Russian trash heaps.

@ninal9953 4 месяца назад

First, Ukraine could win in 2022 if Europe and the US wanted Ukraine to win. Russia did not believe that Ukraine could defend itself. Some politicians, such as Biden, have used Ukraine to improve their ratings. Some would like to save money by disposing of old military equipment. Many people around the world began to make money from this war. Secondly, when Irina Farion spoke out against Ukrainians who spoke Russian, she was kicked out of her job and a criminal case was opened. Why do some regions of Ukraine speak more Russian than Ukrainian? Because people from these regions were killed, deported, and in some cases, criminals from Russia were sent there to work. I lived in Russia, I lived in Ukraine, I know the difference, even the Soviet Union penetrated everything that was occupied, including Ukraine. If Ukraine falls, it will be a massacre, and it will not end. Putin will never stop at Ukraine, like Hitler. He will go further, and will use Ukrainian forces, as Russia is doing now, sending Ukrainians from occupied territories against Ukrainians, fighting for freedom.

A much better position for Ukraine altogether than that which exists now. But we know how that went nowhere at the instigation of Johnson and Biden. Yes, there was a way to go before a final settlement could be reached but the question everyone should be asking is why were those negotiations not continued. Since that time somewhere around half a million Ukrainians have either died or been severely wounded. Why?

If more players to negotiate end of war is the best architecture for peace, he should have been asked why the West and Zelensky are now pushing the latter's peace plan which excludes Russia? Mr Aristovichy tried his best in this interview but remained fundamentally elusive on key issues: 1. Why Zelensky cancelled further peace negotiations. 2. Donesky and Odessa suffered much brutality in 2014 at the hands of the radical Ukrainian government. 3. The claimed Bucha massacre remains a master script in Zelensky's play book. 4. What is Ukraine prepared to give up for the sake of peace or be erased from the face of the world.

@user-wm5rt9pw5l 4 месяца назад

1. Zelensky banned negotiations with Putin after he annexed 4 Ukrainian regions (none of which are completely controlled by Russia) 2. What happened in Odessa happened due to a power vacuum, the Ukrainian government was in no way involved in this. 3. There was a massacre, there are literally footage of Russian soldiers killing people, or leading them to where they will be killed, or being next to the killed. Use the Internet for its intended purpose. 4. It will take Russia 90 years to seize Ukraine at the current rate.
