The Western media is reporting that Elensky is purging:

But Alexander Mercouris is speculating that this may lead to the ousing of Elensky himself https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcd0DWA5fcQ
What do you reckon?
Kolomoisky is pivotal. Him going down is a very good sign. I can't imagine that zelensky could take him down. It might be the Russians or rival Ukrainian factions.
Kolomoisky was an extremely powerful oligarch with his own region (DnieprPetrovsk) and his own private army. He bankrolled and built up the Azov battallion over a number of years. He has strong ties with Israel, he's as cabal as they get.
Incidentally, the aircraft tower that redirected MH17 over the war zone was under his control. He's implicated in the shooting down of MH17 which was a false flag to blame Russia.
I can't imagine who is powerful enough to remove him actually, but it means the cabal is losing it's grip.
