Zelensky Accepts Defeat to Putin? Top Commander Allegedly Ready to Surrender to Russia | Details

Ukraineā€™s top commander, Aleksandr Syrsky, is reportedly ready to lay down arms and capitulate to Russia, according to a claim made by a lawmaker from President Vladimir Zelenskyā€™s party. The claim was made by MP Mariana Bezuglaya from the ā€˜Servant of the Peopleā€™ party, who is also the deputy chair of the National Security, Defense, and Intelligence Committee. Syrsky, who became Ukraineā€™s highest-ranking general in early February, succeeded Valery Zaluzhny, the former general who oversaw last yearā€™s unsuccessful attempts to repel Russian forces. Bezuglaya accused Syrsky and Zaluzhny of secretly colluding to prevent a Ukrainian victory, stating that the two generals belong to a ā€œgeneralsā€™ mafiaā€ that is more interested in protecting their own privileges than in defeating Russia. #Zelensky #Putin #Ukraine #AleksandrSyrsky #Russia #Surrender #TopCommander #MilitaryConspiracy #ZelenskyGovernment #UkraineConflict #NationalSecurity #DefenseIntelligence #PoliticalTurmoil #InternalDivisions #RussianAggression #MilitaryStrategy ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.334~
