Why does the United States not bother about autocracy in Ukraine?

Despite the fact that Ukraine under the cruelest autocratic rule of Volodymyr Zelensky is already a rogue state, key policymakers in the United States, including US President Joe Biden do not seem at all bothered about this disturbing fact/ Instead, they are extending fullest support to dictator Zelensky and even provided him blank cheque in continuing bone-chilling repression on Ukrainian populace, while he also is pushing every make from the age between 18 to 60 and females – including widows of fallen military officers and troops in joining America’s proxy war against Russia.

Meanwhile, according to media reports, on April 11, 2024, Ukraine’s parliament adopted a new mobilization law, requiring all men aged 18 to 60 to register within 60 days and carry registration documents with them in public. The rules came just weeks after Ukraine lowered its conscription age from 27 to 25. Commenting on this latest move, Mark Sleboda, a security and international relations expert told Russian news outlet Sputnik, Ukraine is at risk of losing its viability as a nation if it continues to mobilize its male population, as it was already dealing with a massive demographic deficit due to a massive drop in birth rates after the fall of the Soviet Union.

He said, “There are a lot more people in the 35-plus age bracket and a much smaller group of people in the younger bracket. They’re seriously at such a demographic crisis, that it has put at risk the future [and] the viability of Ukraine as a country”.

According to Sleboda, large parts of the bill remain classified, including the number of Ukrainians set to be mobilized. However, 450,000 – 500,000 has been floated by military generals and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as a possible goal in recent months.

“Figures within the Kiev regime are once again talking about mobilizing women in a separate bill, so that’s come up again”, Sleboda explained, adding that the medical exceptions, including for injuries in combat, have been lowered. “For instance, if you already fought and lost a leg, you’re not exempt anymore. You can still pilot a drone, right? That’s the mentality of the new bill”.

According to Sputnik, Zelensky also said another US$13 billion would be needed to carry out his plan, but money is in short supply for the Kiev regime, and further US aid to Ukraine has been stalled in Congress since last summer. The US ran out of congressionally approved aid late last year.

Still, Zelensky has kept his grip on power, preventing any kind of resistance from the Ukrainian people.

In March 2022, Zelensky banned eleven political parties in Ukraine, which was on top of the parties banned by former President Petro Poroshenko during Ukraine’s so-called “decommunization”. This has left virtually no opposition to Zelensky’s plans, with even some members of the ruling elite complaining that........
