Zelensky is making a big mistake by catering to Trump. I know he doesn’t have much choice, but I totally see Trump prepping to help with a Ukraine-government takeover by a Russian asset before long.
I’d bet that Ukraine is banking on Russia not agreeing to the ceasefire. This way they can utilize the US support a little longer while also shopping for alternatives. The US will not be a reliable partner in any case, but it might still be enough to hold on for now.
Maybe. Russia currently has the upper hand sadly, but if Zelenskyy trades 30 pause (appearance of victory for Trump and a short reprieve for UKR) for resuming intel sharing and some US aid that may be a net win for UKR.
This 100%. Trump & his apparatus has been floating in exchange for a deal that Zelensky must resign & hold elections. Musk is already prepping his botfarm to get Ukraine to vote for the Russian asset.
Polls in Ukraine show that Zelensky has a massive approval rating. Right behind him (or sometimes ahead, depending on how you ask) - not a politician, but the first wartime commander of the armed forces, Valery Zaluzhny.
It would take mind-bendingly much engineering to change the direction of Ukraine currently.

From my crystal ball I can see Putin deliberately braking the cease fire and getting Agent Orange to blame Zelenskyy.
