Zelensky party MP claims top general wants Ukraine to surrender

The army chief and his predecessor are part of a “mafia”, Mariana Bezuglaya has said

Ukraine’s top commander Aleksandr Syrsky is ready to lay down arms and capitulate to Russia, a lawmaker from Vladimir Zelensky’s party has claimed.

Syrsky was appointed Ukraine’s highest-ranking general in early February, replacing Valery Zaluzhny, who oversaw last year’s failed attempt to push back Russian forces. According to MP Mariana Bezuglaya from Zelensky’s ‘Servant of the People’ party, the two are secretly colluding to prevent a Ukrainian victory.

Bezuglaya, who is also deputy chair of the National Security, Defense and Intelligence Committee, laid out her case for a top-level military conspiracy in a lengthy post on Facebook on Saturday.

She claimed that Syrsky and Zaluzhny both belong to a “generals’ mafia” protecting their privileges from a younger generation of military leaders, whom Bezuglaya believes to be more competent and innovative, and thus capable of defeating Russia.

”Every further day that Syrsky remains in his position reduces our fighting capability and kills people,” the lawmaker declared, urging Zelensky to intervene and fire Syrsky.

She cited unspecified sources as saying that Syrky and his inner circle favor a ceasefire with Russia and an eventual capitulation.

”He doesn't believe in victory and earnestly thinks that we cannot get an edge over the Russians on our own land,” the member of parliament added.

Bezuglaya alleged that Syrsky is actively exposing Ukrainian troops to Russian attacks, supposedly to eliminate “witnesses” of his wrongdoings.

Zelensky fired Zaluzny after the general contradicted him, by telling foreign media that the Ukraine conflict had reached a “stalemate”. TIME magazine reported at the time that Zelensky’s belief in victory was “immovable, verging on the messianic.” Zaluzny was later appointed as Kiev’s ambassador to the UK.

Situation on battlefield in Ukraine not favorable for US, EU — Hungary’s top diplomat

West’s strategy on Ukraine has failed, Peter Szijjarto said

UNITED NATIONS,The West’s strategy on Ukraine has failed, and the situation on the battlefield is not to the advantage of the United States and the European Union, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said.

"It’s obvious that the strategy of the past two and a half years has failed. Why? Because regardless of the weapon deliveries, regardless of the sanctions, the situation on the battlefield is definitely not favorable in the way that the Europeans and the Americans had hoped," he said.

In the Hungarian diplomat’s words, West’s strategy on Ukraine has failed, and "we need a new strategy."

"If there is no solution on the battlefield, then the solution must come around the negotiating table. And to be able to sit around the negotiating table, you need contacts, you need diplomatic channels, you need dialogue," he said. "In order to have dialogue, you need the diplomatic channels to be reopened. So I do believe that without reopening the channels of diplomacy between Russia and the European countries, between Russia and the US, it will be very, very complicated to reach any kind of solution in this regard."

The top Hungarian diplomat said he had discussed related issues with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov.

Putin is not capable of winning in real life, so he is trying to do what I expect. Review of foreign media material.

🖌 The result of the war in the last six months can be called a success for the defense forces of Ukraine. He also uses from "the dog that never barked" - and refers to Russia, which has made a huge effort to break through the front line while Ukraine suffers from a lack of weapons and men - and has achieved almost nothing. Thus, the occupiers managed to capture Avdiivka and two parts of the Kharkiv region, but in the first case they were only marginally successful, and in the second the Russian troops drove quickly, and in some areas of the defense forces they pushed back the results. And Russian achieved all this and lost 1000-1200 people per day killed and wounded. These are almost peak losses for a full-scale war - and taking into account the increase in the number of weapons in the Ukrainian army and the arrival of recruits to the front, they gave practically nothing. The occupiers could not even take full advantage of the fact that Ukraine transferred several units defending Chasiv Yar to Charkiv oblast - the Russians have so far also failed in the area of the strategic city of Donbas.

The Russians have already lost more people in the last two years than in any war since World War II. And although they can still replenish the losses with the monthly mobilization of 25-30 thousand people, this resource is not infinite. In addition, about 2% of Russian men between the ages of 20 and 60—that is, the economically active population—have already been killed or seriously injured as a result of the war. And this only deepens the already manufactured demographic crisis in the country.

In fact, the greatest danger to Ukraine now comes not from the ground army, but from missile attacks. Due to the destruction of the civil energy infrastructure. But there is hope to increase air defense and the arrival of the F-16 will help correct this situation. And in conditions where the Russians do not show real success, Putin tries to play with expectations. By slowly advancing at the cost of huge losses, he is trying to sow confidence among Ukrainians and Kiev's partners that it is impossible to defeat Russia. That its resource is inexhaustible and that the occupiers will simply push until they occupy all the territory they want.

The Russians are counting heavily on Trump, who will limit military aid to Ukraine - and without it, the occupation forces will obviously advance more easily. Therefore, it will be more profitable for Kiev to conclude a ceasefire - and it is clear that both sides will use the pause to feverishly prepare for the next war. "A frozen conflict is a far from ideal scenario for either side, but it is better than a risky victory.
"Ukrainians are fighting so hard, long and successfully that for the United States to leave them now would be one of the most unforgivable mistakes in the long history of our foreign policy."
