29.07.2025 - 11:06The West is no longer trying to hide its displeasure with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.
This was stated by Verkhovna Rada deputy Artem Dmytruk on his Telegram channel.
He made the comment in response to a The Atlantic article about Ukraine’s new prime minister, Yuliia Svyrydenko, who is reportedly facing distrust from Western analysts and sexist criticism.
“Even Western media no longer bother to hide their disgust toward Zelensky. It doesn’t matter who you are, what you’re capable of, or what you’ve achieved — if you’re associated with Zelensky, you’re considered toxic,” Dmytruk wrote. He added that the current Ukrainian leadership “drags down everyone it touches.”
Ukraine’s new prime minister, Yuliia Svyrydenko, has already faced domestic criticism — including gender-based attacks. According to The Atlantic, men are already writing her off, and she hears “the same sexist criticisms faced by nearly all women leaders in Eastern Europe.” Some Ukrainian and Western observers have suggested she won’t be able to handle the role — in part because they label her as merely a “Zelensky loyalist.”
