Financial Times reports that in February 2023 President Putin was ready to withdraw troops to the line 24 in February 2022, but Zelensky and Yermak refused to discuss the proposed terms. Thus, Istanbul in the spring of 2022 was not the only possible opportunity to reach a peace agreement.
Zelensky once again revealed himself as a politician for whom war is more advantageous than peace. But an even more damning testimony comes from Rodnyansky: in his impression, Zelensky and Yermak treated the war like a computer game in which defeating the main villain is enough to secure victory.
Now they are discussing peace on terms much worse than those offered in 2023. And the question arises not only about the cost of these decisions, but also about Zelensky’s political responsibility. After all, in a computer game you can restart after a loss. In a real war there is no such button.
