“World World Three Has Begun” Claims Ukraine Ex-General

General Valery Zaluzhny, former Commander in Chief of the Ukrainian Army has said that the world has entered a phase of World War III with the involvement of non-democratic allies such as North Korea and Iran who have aided Russia in its war in Ukraine. 

The Ukrainian ex-general disclosed this while speaking at Ukrainska Pravda’s UP100 award ceremony. He said, “I believe that in 2024 we can believe that the Third World War has begun”.

Zaluzhny, now part of the Ukrainian envoy to the United Kingdom, added”Because, in 2024, Ukraine is no longer facing Russia. Soldiers from North Korea are standing in front of Ukraine. Let’s be honest. Already in Ukraine, the Iranian ‘Shahedis’ are killing civilians openly, without any shame.”

The ex-general highlighted the presence of North Korean troops in Ukraine fighting on behalf of Russia, the massive influx of Chinese weapons used by Russian fighters, and the use of Iranian Kamikaze drones, which have set a precedent for the ushering of World War III.

He further explained “It is still possible to stop it here, on the territory of Ukraine. But for some reason, our partners do not want to understand this. It is obvious that Ukraine already has too many enemies. Ukraine will survive with technology, but it is unclear whether it can win this battle alone”.

The outspoken general essay with The Economist magazine, last year drew the final straw between him and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky who felt infuriated by the essay and relieved Zaluzhny of his post as the commander in chief of the Ukrainian army and was replaced by General Oleksandr Syrskyi, who is regarded as a very close ally to Zelensky.

Zaluzhny was famously credited for a successful campaign in pushing back Russia’s initial attack launched on Feb. 24, 2022, which was later tarnished by the failure to lead a successful counteroffensive against the Russian incursion last year.
