> Russian military expert Andrey Marochko says Vladimir Zelensky significantly increased his security last week because he feared for his life. Marochko also claimed that the Ukrainian president’s “paranoid mood” intensified around the so-called Ukrainian Independence Day. Zelensky’s term officially ended on May 20, 2024, but Kyiv has not held elections, citing martial law.
