Zelenskyy can't make peace, the massive concessions Russia would demand would never pass in the Verkhovna Rada. ….. and if he could he would be giving Russia an advantage for any future attacks.
I see the same thing - tragically, there is no common ground for a peace deal at this time.

For Russia, any resolution in which Ukraine may become a member of the NATO - or remain a threat in any other way - would be a huge strategic defeat. Unless they have a clear, undisputed victory - they will have proven that they can be defeated. And it may be a matter of time until they are. And they know it.

And if they’ll accomplish what they need - the Rada will likely have a very different composition.

Regular Ukrainians never wanted to be in NATO - or to become a proxy army fighting Russia. They did want to be EU members - because it would give them an opportunity to work in other EU countries - and make more money.

But, that’s how DINO’s (democracies in name only) work - their “leaders” don’t give a rats’s butt about what the people want.
