    It’s hilarious how they immediately got invested into the whole Russia did it narrative, and now Ukrainian intelligence chief is coming out saying there was no foul play. I’m honestly curious what Budanov’s angle on this is.

      Zelensky straight up said he was killed by Putin like “thousands of others” but now Budanov confirms Russian version. Some internal conflict i would say, but possibly a nothingburger since such things does happen failry regularily in fucked up postsocialist bureocracies when rightwingers lose their shit.

        Yeah that’s true, there is definitely factionalization happening though. I imagine as things continue to unravel militarily, we’ll start seeing increased struggles for power within the political system as people will smell opportunity to unseat Zelensky.
