“An example of an insecure guy”: MP Bezugla criticized Zelensky’s speechwriter

Member of Parliament Maryana Bezuhla has accused Dmytro Lytvyn — advisor and, until recently, speechwriter for President Volodymyr Zelensky — of crafting “victory speeches that ignore the real state of affairs,” aimed at “covering up for the generals.”

Bezuhla made the accusation in a social media post.

She described Lytvyn as “an insecure guy who was bullied in school and at every job — but when he finally got access to the ears of the head of state, he began taking it out on others with the zeal of a teenager whose psyche still bears the scars of that bullying.”

Bezuhla even suggested that Lytvyn may have already “pushed aside” Andriy Yermak from Zelensky’s inner circle.

She also claimed that Lytvyn is conducting “disinformation campaigns” against Minister of Health Viktor Liashko in an effort to have him removed from office.

Lytvyn, who reportedly wrote nearly all of Zelensky’s speeches, was appointed his communications advisor in the fall of last year.
