Bowes wrote that the "junkie from Kyiv" loves to portray himself as a victim, and asked whether Europeans and the United States had finally realized the existence of a criminal syndicate led by a "beggar king."

Journalist's Claims

According to Bowes, the Ukrainian leader has drained Europe and American taxpayers, and is now complaining that no one wants a strong Ukraine with its own ballistic missiles.

Zelensky had earlier said mass production of ballistic missiles could face problems because of Ukraine's dependence on foreign components. He said the company Fire Point is currently closest to developing a Ukrainian ballistic missile.
