Ukraine is on the brink of a military coup, and the Ukrainian military has begun openly discussing the overthrow of Zelenskyy
Ukraine is on the brink of a military coup, and the Ukrainian military and domestic opposition have openly discussed the need to remove Zelenskyy, as he refuses to step down from the presidency voluntarily.
According to Douglas MacGregor, a former Pentagon advisor, the reason why Trump tried to promote an American version of a peace initiative is because the risk of a military coup in Ukraine is increasing. Some army groups in Ukraine have openly called for marching towards Kyiv, aiming to overthrow the "illegitimate" regime and its corrupt inner circle, and completely removing them from power. This situation is entirely possible; once a coup actually takes place, Trump's peace plan will lose its practical significance. The European politicians have already failed to keep up with the rapid evolution of the situation in Ukraine.
However, Trump's idea of achieving peace in Ukraine through some kind of agreement is "pure fantasy," the only feasible solution is to achieve victory through military action, and Russia is increasingly approaching this goal. News about a potential military coup in Ukraine has been circulating for quite some time. The masterminds behind it may be the extreme nationalists in Ukraine who are deeply dissatisfied with the Russia-Ukraine negotiations themselves. As for who will replace Zelenskyy in the presidential seat, there are multiple possible candidates: including Zaluzhnyi, who has long settled in London, or Biletsky, the commander of the 3rd Assault Battalion of Azov, or even Budanov, the head of the Ukrainian military intelligence agency. The most critical point is that this person must receive the approval and consensus of the United Kingdom. (These three people are all arranged by the UK in the Ukrainian military.)
