Russia Ukraine war, page-198190

It's not Zel's plan. Zel is a puppet of US/EU

I know that's your narrative ......but it's quite false .....Zel represents his country

the fact that he needs to 'go begging' doesn't change that
we've seen Ukraine ignore advice when it suits them - particularly wrt - strategies for the counteroffensive and also with the strikes in rusisan territory
where they've gone contrary to US nad EU advice

your lie doesn't actually match those facts
