Ukraineās 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 Zelenskyās party. The claim was made by MP Mariana Bezuglaya from the āServant of the Peopleā party, who is also the deputy chair of the National Security, Defense, and Intelligence Committee.
Syrsky, who became Ukraineās highest-ranking general in early February, succeeded Valery Zaluzhny, the former general who oversaw last yearās 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 āgeneralsā mafiaā that is more interested in protecting their own privileges than in defeating Russia.
