I really think at this point Zelensky could have signed..... no one would have blamed him...... and it would have been accepted as the status quo.....
This actually should have happened 4 years ago when his country got invaded..... all the stats, analytics, logistics, common sense says Ukraine should have lost this battle 4 years ago and Russia should have won...... they should have lost long long ago but they havent.......
President Biden and the Americans pretty much wished their best wishes and told every American to get out and even told Zelensky to get out...... the country wasn't going to last a month under the full weight and might of the Russian military slamming down on it... But Zelensky never gave up....... 4 years later and 4 years from now even he and the Ukrainians will never give up....... and that's the thing it's not Zelensky....... regular folk and people and the average person in Ukraine never gave up...... as shitty as it is for everyone else in the world..... those people just kept fighting and didn't give up putting up their own blood for compensation for the idea of Free/Western values.......
It's all about the Ukrainian people...... they won't give up..... they won't stop fighting....... they won't quit until they have their land back and that says a lot about a people IMO. With or without help they just won't stop and I don't see that same resilience from their opponents in Russia or even from their own allies who help them.....
Such resolve, determination, focus and values are something to admire IMO and if anything is to be said about Zelensky or the Ukrainians it's that...... those are some tough people, they work hard, fight hard and those are people willing to die for what they believe and a free/just way of life.....
