Olha Stefanishyna says she resigned. Volodymyr Zelenskyy says she was removed. Regardless of which storyline is accurate, the Ukraine Ambassador to the United States is no longer in position. There is no replacement.
Stefanishyna is also under investigation for her connection with financial irregularities involving the Asset Recovery and Management Agency, although she has not been formally charged, yet.
The Western narrative, which has continuously looked like an intelligence community shaping, says that U.S. relations with the government of Ukraine have never been stronger. The reality seems to be something else entirely.
Aug 3 (Reuters) – President Volodymyr Zelenskiy dismissed Ukraine’s ambassador to the United States, Olha Stefanishyna, in a decree published on Monday.
Stefanishyna had been in her job for nearly a year. Her departure had been expected for several weeks.
Her departure coincides with a shake-up in recent weeks of top officials, including the replacement of the prime minister and defence minister. A reshuffle of Ukraine’s diplomatic and ambassadorial appointments is also expected.
Stefanishyna, writing on Facebook, said the decision to leave her post was “my own decision, driven by personal circumstances … ” and said she had accomplished much during her time in the post. (read more)
I am not going to belabor the points, because I’m told by most my review of the data is incorrect. However, once again, I would simply point out the distinct difference between the preferred Western narrative and the reality of events as they unfold.
From the June 11th London visit that preceded the G7 assembly in Paris, things have not made sense when you compare Western narrative to the reality of events. The removal of Stefanishyna is simply just another datapoint.
Western media say Ukraine has turned the tide on the war against Russia. Reality – Russia has methodically gained ground in Eastern Ukraine.
Western media say Ukraine has exceptional drone building and technological capabilities to share with allies. To highlight this expertise Ukraine held a drone exposition in Kiev; Russia blew it up killing hundreds of contractors. Media went silent.
Ukraine drones attack Wildberries warehouses. Russia blows up drone manufacturing factories.
Western media say Ukraine drone capabilities are the most remarkable testimonial to their military effectiveness. Zelenskyy fires the Minister of Defense responsible for the drone capabilities.
Western media say Ukraine is effective in stopping the Russian advancements in the Donbas region. Zelenskyy fires the military general in command of the Ukraine military in the Donbas.
Western media say Ukraine long-range drones are striking deep into Russian oil refining capacity. Zelenskyy says he needs to build drone and missile factories in Great Britain.
If you want to evaluate the war, go back to the timing of events right after Zelenskyy last went to London and met with King Charles. It was a few days before the G7 summit in Paris. Go back to that exact date and then read the headlines on Ukraine/Russia from that date to today.
If you can be emotionally disconnected from the spin, and just focus on what the headlines would mean in every other timeframe, what you will notice is that Ukraine is panicking. Every move is a panic move from that London visit to today.
Every Russian move exists silently, almost in isolation from Western media. Every Ukraine move exists loudly, coordinated and promoted for maximum media value. It looks like an intelligence influence operation.
Go look.
The recently organized U.S. Senate sanctions against Russia are mostly directed toward China and India, while framing censorship in the form of punishment against any action that might “undermine” the government of Ukraine. It’s the ‘be careful what you say’ sanctions.
Russia is methodically destroying Ukraine defenses, and the only response Zelenskyy has put together is flashy political promotion and media headlines to hide a reality that Russia is methodically destroying Ukraine defenses.
Western media says one narrative; the datapoints show something entirely different.
I give it four months, and it’s over.
Perhaps, that’s why President Trump: (A) pulled back from Patriot and Tomahawk missile sharing; and (B) has told his team to reengage both sides in peace negotiations now.
“I am not going to belabor the points because I’m told by most my review of the data is incorrect. However, once again I would simply point out the distinct difference between the preferred western narrative and the reality of events as they unfold.”
I guess this is one of those things where we are going to have to sit back and wait, because I have absolutely no faith in “the preferred western narrative”.
I have watched the Military Summary channel on RUMBLE for more than a year and agree that the reality on the line of contact between Russia and Ukraine has consistently shown steady progress along the entire front line. There are many western news stories that just seem to repeat only Ukraine government news releases. There have even been times when Zelenskyy indicates progress has been made in an area which turns out to be based on drone footage from months or even years past. The fate of Odessa will like decide the outcome of the war.
Correct. Add “History Legends” YouTube channel if you haven’t already.
I agree Coin, Russia is grinding out the land it wants. The war has escalated starting in July. “Recruitment” gangs capture men off the street; so much for the patriotism of the Ukrainians. The grift must be so great that the Ukrainian leadership does not mind losing much of the country and much of its future.
The depopulation was planned.

That is the goal of the Narrators:
We become conditioned to disengage by long-term immersion in false narratives.
The frogs kept disengaged as the water in the pot warms.
There are signs that the Narrators even inject information designed to encourage that disengagement, such as the UFO/UAP narratives.
Other information is injected to discredit truth-tellers who threaten the narratives, sometimes using controlled opposition. This is seen with the modRNA shots biowarfare program, started under Trump and rushed to illegally coerced mass deployment by the elderpuppet with the shot production managed by U.S. Army general Gustave Perna, bypassing established safety standards, with U.S. government-driven censorship and propaganda, that targeted the West but not the East.
This was a long-term attrition Program…

and the propaganda continues…

The narrative control even extends to manipulating people and arranging events, like Fauci and his roles – now continuing to scapegoat to draw attention away from the real architects.
Yep, the masses’ perceptions and minds are controlled by false narratives, and the narrative manipulators identified in 1975 by the Church Committee (Operation Mockingbird) morphed the narrative manipulation programs into what is being run today from the same zip code (22101), orders of magnitude more powerful than 1975.

Your analysis is vastly superior to most. You’re one of two sites I read daily. (Coffee and Covid is the other.)
C&C could be a fair to middlin’ website if he would learn use sentences to convey what could be conveyed in sentences instead of dragging every thought into multiple paragraphs.
Makes me think of grade school when we had to use at least 500 words to describe what we did on Saturday.
C&C more humor engaged in the presentation. Sundance is outstanding and C&C is a lawyer (maybe SD is too, I have no idea); I like the different takes about the same issues.
I’ve “accused” C&C of first reading the CTH.

It certainly has been a flop.
Seriously they can’t do a real war coverage thing because their people would get killed filming. You have to have something to spin.
Actually, unlike Hollywierd, for the grifters involved it’s been a massive financial success (never mind the bodies all over the field)!
They’ve hired Ellen/Elliot “the idiot iliad” Page for the sequel. She will play Little Z.
What is being described here are careful cause and effect scenarios, using a contrast and comparison analysis. I agree with the datapoints vs the media narratives analysis. If this Ukraine-Russia war is indeed over in for months, or less, that would be a wonderful thing.
“If you can be emotionally disconnected from the spin and just focus on what the headlines would mean in every other timeframe, what you will notice is that Ukraine is panicking…. Every move is a panic move from that London visit to today.”
Is it Ukraine panicking or the puppet masters pushing for war and ultimately controlling their marionette Ukraine that are panicking?
Ukraine is only the tool of the Globalist/EU/London Empire. How much American money has gone from Ukraine to their London based masters and American traitors?????
Can’ be having Christian USA and Christian Russia (It hasn’t been Commie USSR for decades, mostly thanks to Putin) joining hands against the Evil Satanist.
Thoria Nudelman (Nuland) & all Kaganites never ever allow that….
Good question. One of the firings was of a general that was cleaning up the corruption to focus the money towards fighting Russia.
That sure sounds like puppet master panicking. But the carnage of all the firings is just too broad. Too many people, appointed by Z are having to be removed. That is a much deeper panic than just a few thieves protecting their ill gotten cash flow.
There are protests. There are people fighting the press gangs. And Z is having to replace his handpicked people throughout government. Military, Security, Diplomats.
Could this be a sign that Z is losing his people and country and desperately trying to prevent a coup?
It’d be funny if the Ukrainians free themselves from tyranny long before the Iranians do. And it could make Z more desperate to accept Putin’s terms to end the war.
But honestly, I think ending the war is a sure-fire way for Z to share Mussolini’s fate. The people just won’t forgive him for what he has done to them.
I think Little Z will be taken out before this war is over, the people are now starting to realize that they have lost a generation of their young men for what? You can see it in the videos off the people fighting the military who are rounding up young men on the streets to send them to fight in the meat grinder. That is not what you see if your people aare happy with what is going on in the war.
IMO Lil Z lost his people some time ago and the proof is he had to cancel elections and go full tyrant to keep is position and possibly his head.
How is the Z-Dog gonna win his “precious democracy” reelections with all this drama?

The last Ukraine war KIA figures from someone I trust is Ukraine 1.6M-1.8M and Russia 300,000-400,000.
The someone you trust must not be Donald Trump nor Marco Rubio.
That sounds like Z’s claim that they caused 1.7 million Russian Casualties but only 50,000 Ukrainian KIA and maybe 300,000 casualties.
Though at the start of the year it was 55,000 KIA. Just amazing that Z is resurrecting the dead.
So many brazen lies.
On the other hand Russia hasn’t given out the facts, so they can’t be accused of putting out propaganda.
Every statistic that I found showed just the opposite:
Russian casualites (killed, wounded, MIA) approaching 1.4 million
Ukriane: 400,000 – 600,000
as they say … “The first casualty of any war is the truth”
Insert eye-roll emoji for the troll John.
They do prisoner swaps including bodies. The numbers tell the story. Russia also claims Ukraine is refusing to accept back their dead to avoid paying the families the death money.
First of all it’s john, not John.

You’re on THIS site which is ON THE INTERNET so it can’t possibly be a reliable source, can it?
You’ve proved my point. Thanks.
SOMEONE DID HACK TO MINISTRY OF DEFENSE 13 MONTHS AGO… KIA REPORTED IN THIS TIME…1.6 MIL. KIA……WITH CURRENT DAILY KIA…IT COOILD BE WELL OVER 2 MILLIONS….
Oh no! Z announced last year that UKR only lost 30,000 in the war. Russia was down to fighting with sticks and shovels.
Three years ago we were told that Putin had a terminal undisclosed disease and he wouldn’t live to the end of 2023.
Whether those numbers are true, or the exact opposite numbers are true, you reach the same conclusion. We are in a dangerous place and need to cease all involvement.

Attenuating circumstances, meet cognitive dissonance.
Opinion columns and news summaries generally claim Eastern Ukraine war is stalemated, and Ukraine long-range drones are doing significant damage to Russian energy infrastructure. How are we supposed to determine what is real and what is not? I find it hard to imagine Putin is willing to sit quietly and tolerate these attacks—either he is impotent, or is patiently waiting for Ukraine to collapse. Which is it?
“Meat grinder” indeed.
Daily the Russians take more territory in the East. Drones are revolutionizing warfare and adapting to new techniques of using them takes time. Ukraine is fighting and causing damage in Russia. But Russia is winning.
My first guess would be the IC is clearing the field of people who have direct knowledge of the billions of stolen dollars.

Reuters still refer to Zelenskiy as “President”. Without elections, maybe “Ukraine Dictator Zelenskiy” would be more apt.
Ukraine is a broken country. From the top down it’s nothing but backstabbers and grifters all trying to get some. It would be beneficial for Russia to reclaim it as their own. Full speed ahead Vlad!!!
Ukraine is such a mess not even Russia wants all of it.
Both Poland and Romania may want to reclaim lands that once belonged to them though.

Sundance – you are most likely correct in most aspects of this story. If you are predicting a collapse of Ukraine in four months than I would say that is a bad bet. Ukraine has proven quite a tough nut. I would have expected Russia to have over whelmed Ukraine by now. Russia is either a paper tiger or Ukraine is a honey badger.
In a May 14, 2026 interview with Fox News, Marco Rubio said that Russia is losing five times as many soldiers per month as Ukraine.
Rubio’s intelligence sources are the same entities directing the Ukraine war.
They have no interest and perhaps no ability in providing accurate intelligence.
Russia isn’t trying to “overwhelm Ukraine”

This has always been the West’s proxy war against Russia, waged by globalist elites who apparently control the West’s intelligence services and clandestine war-making capabilities. That Russia hasn’t nuked the West is a testament to Putin’s infinite patience.
Sundance was correct when he wrote, “Western media say Ukraine has turned the tide on the war against Russia. Reality, Russia has methodically gained ground in Eastern Ukraine.” I have been following the frontline changes on the Singapore-based Defense Politics Asia website. Here are the average net daily gains of Russia in square kilometers:
Oct 25: 24.2

Dec 25: 18.0

Jul 26: 14.8
Periodically Ukraine pushes back in a few areas and after a few weeks Russia reclaims the territory. Russia is fighting a war on a limited scale and as CTH said Ukraine is using media to highlight specific “victories” while continuing to lose. Media against armor.
Russia has advanced in the Donbas region while Zelenskyy and his media fan club gain ground in the Dumbass region. LOL

Zelenskyy didn’t wear a sweatshirt so apparently really wanted to impress! He may have read that ‘the clothes make the man’.
Britain has had designs on russia for centuries. The current russia-control effort is only the latest manifestation. Britain considered colonizing northern russia in the 1600s (when it was colonizing the US). By 1758, Britain conquered India as a major source of economic wealth, raw material (including opium), and global military power. At the end of the 18th century, Britain tried to block russia from the Black Sea, and then the British ‘Great Game’ sought containment of russia to protect Britain’s own India+ conquests. English politician H. Mackinder defined control of the russian-centered eurasian landmass as key to global dominance. Britain entered the Crimean war to block russian influence over the Ottoman Empire. If russia could be divided and dominated like India, it might reinvigorate an old failed empire.
However, ironically, Britain is now fully invaded and colonized, and thereby almost completely destroyed as an effective power which could not even defend itself. If Ukraine was not beset by russia, ukraine could easily overtake England.

this is a link for the ambassador’s instructions:
(i suppose its only one of the seven posts to establish a new agenda for going forward)
The Ukrainian position, our opinion, our view, our narratives, our needs should be and be available on podcasts, social networks, bloggers and influencers. But at the same time, – and in each of the usual media that still influence, are quoted, have political significance and a real opportunity to maintain attention to Ukraine, and therefore to strengthen support for Ukraine and respect for our community in the country.
In order for there to always be a result for Ukraine, you and your key employees at the embassy must speak the same language – in all senses – with those who make decisions and can help. We have a traditional, long-standing flaw in our diplomatic service, which with all languages except English is a shortage. Please prepare system solutions that can change this. You need to navigate deeply in the values, holidays and pain of each nation where you work, in culture and know the language.
It is necessary that the ambassadors know more about what and how is happening in Ukraine. You need to visit Ukraine regularly, live the same life with Ukraine and feel that Ukrainians are worried. Each of the Ukrainian ambassadors should feel how it is – front, how it is – front-line or border community, how it is – recovery after shelling. Every ambassador should feel what it’s like when the air defenses are empty and the Russians hit with ballistics.
Taking all this into account, it is necessary to more carefully select and prepare replacements as part of embassies, and those who return to Ukraine should be offered a level of positions that will really correspond to their contribution to the joint result of Ukraine and the experience that our people have here and which was acquired by an employee of the embassy in the country of work. Otherwise, there is a risk of losing experienced specialists for the diplomatic system, which we cannot afford.
From a speech at a meeting of heads of foreign diplomatic institutions of Ukraine. (7/7)
With everything that you described, it looks to me like Zelenskyy is now firing everybody that would get in the away of them doing their last bit of war looting before they close down the war.
The general they fired has already went on record saying that he was fired because he wasn’t giving the big money contracts to the muckity mucks around Zelensky and company.
“has already gone on record”…. lol
1) Russia has shut down the port facilities in Odessa. I believe that about 75% of Ukraine’s international trade was moving though it. Ukraine now has to rely on slow and extremely vulnerable river barges coming from Romania, which are already carrying Romanian cargo. (Remember those stories about the “Graveyard of the Russian Fleet” a few weeks ago?”)
2) Russia is systematically targeting gas stations in Ukraine. Western media is portraying this campaign as an attack targeting civilians. What the Russian military is probably doing is knocking out all fueling infrastructure along one or more strategic axis of advance. (Remember those stories about the Russian fuel crisis?”)
Ukraine can’t import anything, and will soon have no capability to move anything it has faster than a horse, unless it’s on a train. I imagine trains don’t play well with drones.
A country with no fueling capacity is a country fighting a 19th century war against a 21st century army.
This is all happening as the Russian forces are poised to break out into open country, with the knowledge that the terrain will soon begin to harden.
It’s going to get uglier (suicide bombing in Moscow) but that’s a sign that it’s getting close to the end. The Japanese didn’t crawl into caves and lay on hand grenades because they though they were winning.
Worse, with no fuel, winter is coming. 4 months.
Russia is continuing to destroy locomotives.
The late great Scott Adams said the best way to determine whether a world view is accurate, is how well it predicts future events. SD is plus 90% accurate. Nuff said.
YES, four months which brings us to December when the ground becomes muddy, a problem to operate in. This is when the missiles will become very destructive in major Uke cities, power plants (Baby, it’s cold out there)…
The right wing influencers all of a sudden pushing Ukraine seems off also. Who is behind that?
How does israel tie in?
And what does Mayor Mamdani have to say about this?
“Every Ukraine move exists loudly, coordinated and promoted for maximum media value. It looks like an intelligence influence operation.”
That Ukraine ever had a chance against Russia has been a Western IC / media PSYOP since day one.
Besides, it’s the Russian people that need to be convinced that Russia can not win the war and IIRC, Finland is pulling the plug to Russia’s Internet connectivity to the West. Propaganda 101 sez that this is completely the wrong approach, eh? How does Western propaganda reach the Russian people, if those people can not reach out to Western “news” reporting?
I read that there are a couple of mathematical models that predict the collapse of the Ukrainian army by end of summer to Christmas time. The unknown is how much the use of drones can cover for lack of manpower. This aligns with the new press for peace negotiations by Zelenskyy. The deep drone attacks are about political pressure before Russian elections. Our neocon war hawks are under the delusion that creating mild economic hardships in Russia will make the people turn against Putin. Nothing about the Russian psyche leads me to believe this. Nothing hardens the resolution of Russians more than suffering. The only pressure Putin will feel is to take off the gloves and reduce major Ukrainian cities to rubble and harden his negotiation demands. There will be no peace deal anytime soon.
Good question. The answer to drones covering for manpower is to look at the Ground Russia is taking on a daily basis. Most of the Western Media ignores the ground war because the EU is losing it.
Was she going to spill the beans on Zelenskyy’s corruption and siphoning off of funds donated to the Ukraine war effort?
With both Hilary Clinton and John Brennan stating “if Trump can end the Ukraine war he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize ” it is highly likely that the war will not end until Trump is out of office.
4 months and counting to the end of the CIA; Ukraine has no defenses and Iran has no $. Good riddance!
Logically, you have to reject the narrative coming from Ukraine because of its been engineered by the same people who produced the demonstrably false narratives about, in no specific order: the causes of the Ukraine conflict, immigration, six engined ‘fishing boats’, Trump appointees, COVID, voter security, mental state of Biden, the entire Harris campaign of ‘joy’, the trans-‘facts’, the Floyd beatification, the Green New Deal, the pull out of Afghanistan, Russiagate, ICE, MAGA, China……
Treepers can add to list if they wish as the above was simply a stream of consciousness illustrating the nature of the compromised provenance of the Ukraine ‘turns the tide’ stories, that are regularly injected into the media.
I guess Ukraine has been bequeathed to Zelensky. He owns it all, as no one protests. To continue the conflict just grants him more time at the top.
From the onset of the Russia/Ukraine military action, Putin has been the adult in the room, and Zelensky has been the spoiled toddler. Putin has a job to do, to protect his country, and couldn’t care less about social media or even western media. I assume he understands that western media will never view him, or Russia, in a positive light. While there may be arguments against the interpretation that Promethean Action puts on global events, ie that the City of London is the globalist puppetmaster, the trip by Boris Johnson at the beginning of the conflict which prevented Zelensky from signing the peace agreement, all the way up to Zelensky’s recent visit with King Charles, seems to support this interpretation. SD nails it here: “Every Russian move exists silently, almost in isolation from Western media. Every Ukraine move exists loudly, coordinated and promoted for maximum media value. It looks like an intelligence influence operation.”
This is the one simple little sentence that stuck out to me: “There is no replacement.”
They know they’ve lost the U.S. This makes me happy, because at the beginning of his term, I wasn’t sure Trump would be able to extricate us from this particular globalist knot.
UK-EU’s Z-Puppet was probably told to cut ties with PT by firing the Amb in retaliation for PT withholding the Patriot equipment (and another one that I forget the name of). In a subtle/not so subtle way, PT pulled the plug to a pathway of solid UKR support at RUS’s expense. Z & the coalition of the willing will continue to put coal in PT’s stocking. He doesn’t give a flip. He extricated USA the best he could given the UKR mess he was given. UK-EU are left holding the bag.
Right? I can’t decide whether “I’m cutting off my nose to spite my own face” or “I’m going to take my ball and go home” is more appropriate.
Toss up!!
Well, Z could use a little less nose…. then he wouldn’t be sticking it where he shouldn’t.
There’s no replacement at the current time of announcing her removal. What that means is this firing wasn’t planned weeks in advance. It was a spur of the moment canning; which means something fairly serious was going down regarding her situation.
Let’s pray that peace comes sooner than later.
