As noted before, were Zelensky to be kidnapped and removed from Kiev by Russians, a replacement military junta come to power there and order all forces to stand down — and reach understanding with Russian forces that they will occupy all oblasts of Ukraine — temporarily — and all MI6 and CIA personnel in Ukraine be executed . . .
If all of that happened, the media, and the WH, would announce it as victory and the end of the war, with all Russian troops withdrawing to the Donbas and Crimea at the end of the “temporary” period, during which they disarmed all Ukraine forces. The junta will be completely technocratic, refuse all EU overtures and all NATO overtures, and begin collecting transit fee for gas traversing Ukraine to Romania and Poland.
Those withdrawn Russians would be hyped, videoed, and people interviewed who call it a great NATO victory and that’s that. Bottom line, there is no way for the Ukraine folks to be disappointed. They will be told everything they want to hear.
Or better yet...a bullet to Putin’s head.
