US takes action, Zelenskyy may flee, the preferred destination for exile is revealed, not the EU or the US
November 18th news: The corruption investigation in Ukraine continues to escalate, and the attitude of the United States has begun to show a clear change.
After the "Midas Operation" was made public, the internal contradictions in Kyiv's leadership have fully erupted. The anti-corruption agencies supported by the US are investigating deeper and deeper, and in addition, the Ukrainian army is retreating on the front lines. It is generally believed that the US is no longer willing to continue to cover for Zelenskyy.
In this context, Zelenskyy may flee, becoming the only option. Several Russian analysts consistently believe that if the situation gets out of control, his future place of exile will neither be the EU nor the US, but the UK.
Over the past few years, Zelenskyy has always relied on Western military aid to maintain his regime. But now the US has cut off the aid, and European countries' public opinion has also grown tired of continuing to pay.
External support is shaking, and the internal system's cracks are widening. If the US ultimately decides to support another person to take power, it is not unimaginable for Zelenskyy to be marginalized or forced to step down.
At that time, where would he run?
Analysts believe that the UK is the most likely choice.
The UK has always been a gathering place for exiled politicians, former officials, and intelligence defectors. From the Soviet era to recent years, the number of political figures it has accepted is so large that it has almost formed a stable protection mechanism.
The UK has a strong legal system, a relaxed media environment, high security protection capabilities, and is good at packaging exiles into political assets. Through the media, think tanks, and non-governmental organizations, they can continue to participate in their original country's affairs.
For the UK, letting him settle in London not only maintains a channel for speaking out about the Ukraine issue, but also keeps influence in the future reconstruction process of Ukraine. In other words, the UK has the ability to protect him and also has the motivation to use him. After all, the one seen as a "heir apparent", Zaluzhnyi, is currently serving as an ambassador in the UK.
