Zelensky Demands That NATO Preemptively Strike Russia With Nukes (Salty Cracker)

The Eastern areas of Ukraine have been Russian for hundreds of years. Putin had offered to negotiate a settlement to the conflict with self autonomy and the neutrality of Ukraine as a security guarantee, but this was rejected. The rhetoric from Zelensky is showing that it is Kiev being unreasonable in the conflict. Zelensky is coming across as unhinged. Perhaps this is the plan, to discourage Russia, but it will not stop them from executing their war aims. It's more likely that Zelensky will be removed and/or the West will simply stop their support for Ukraine when they realise they cannot win militarily or with propaganda, or that they cannot turn the post war situation into the next Afghanistan.
