I been meaning to learn more about him. But most of the Youtube videos are full of propaganda that he was "so evil"

Thinking of probably buying a book on him

He was not deem evil when he was a proxy of the western hegemony :mjpls:
Two things can be true simultaneously. 20 years from now we will probably learn how corrupt and evil Zelinski was in 2022.



It was the same deal with mugabe, where the dude was inept both before and after he turned bad on Britain. Honestly, having a dirty pawn is great thing for a western power, makes it easy to dispose of them afterwards. Think of how we did those south anerican dictators dirty after the coldwar ended.

You can throw in the middle east dictators in as well like Saddam Hussein.
