Ukraine war: Force Russia to make peace, Zelensky urges West
www.bbc.com
Mr Zelenksy said there needed to be "tangible coercion of Russia" into peace by Kyiv's allies.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Western leaders to pressure Russia into peace using “all means” necessary.

Mr Zelensky has long said he will not negotiate with Russia directly until Moscow’s forces leave all Ukrainian territory, including Crimea.

His call, however, comes as Russia makes gains against Ukraine, with Kyiv suffering from a shortage of Western-supplied weapons.

    I definitely agree that there is some coercion taking place, though it would be pure speculation for me to guess it was nazi elements in the Ukrainian government. Absolutely could be, I wouldn’t be surprised, though my money is on his western overlords forcing him to stay in the war. Maybe with the carrot on a stick of NATO membership. The timing of Boris Johnson’s visit just seems to line up so perfectly.

      Why do they have to be in government? Nazis have taken over policing in major cities, they effectively run the streets. Many Ukrainians are leaving the country cause they don’t want to live in places controlled by Nazis.

        Oh they wouldn’t have to be in government, though there are undoubtedly those elements there and probably have the easiest access.

        The reality is probably some combination of both, to be honest.
