Really good source! Thank you.
I watched General MacGregor’s interview and he said that the US is supplying advisors but Zelinsky wasn’t listening to them, and that Zelinsky kept wanting to attack, attack attack.
MacGregor suggested this is probably because Zelinsky is trying to save himself. I also think it’s optics - our FR Ukrainian propagandists often hold up the offense position Zelinsky claims, pushing the (false) reasoning that if Zelinksy is attacking, it’s because he has the upper hand, is winning, has Russia on the ropes etc. *eye roll*
But in the post you made, the source seems to indicate that the US (Biden handlers) has found the leverage to force Zelinsky to do as they tell him.
This source seems to show the overall strategy - and the complex nature of Putin’s multi-layered approach. Makes Zelinsky’s handlers look like children by comparison.
LOL, Macgregor is a retired army colonel NOT a 'General' who has been constantly wrong in the past on Ukraine, so I'm not sure why you give him any credibility now.

Macgregor believes their fight for territorial integrity is already lost. He dismisses glowing reports of Ukrainian tactical victories as a politically concocted “fiction.”
"The battle in eastern Ukraine is really almost over, all of the Ukrainian troops there have been largely surrounded and cut off. You have a concentration down in the Southeast of 30 or 40,000 of them, and if they don't surrender in the next 24 hours, I suspect Russia will ultimately annihilate them."
