Ukraine war blogger 'Simplicius' adds some detail to the account of how Boris Johnson & NATO, convinced Zelensky to scupper the March-April 2022 peace deal, under which Russia would keep the territories with Russians in Donbass and Crimea, Ukraine would stay out of NATO, and the war would end.
Apparently they pitched Zelensky with the notion that the USA & NATO would supply such amazing 'wunderwaffen' - 'wonder weapons' - that Zelensky would become immortal in history, as someone who defeated the Russian Empire as no one else did. https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/afu-suffers-horror-breakdowns-as
But the NATO 'wonder weapons', such as the HIMARS mobile rocket launchers, and the Leopard tanks, have only prolonged the war, the Russians meeting the challenge even despite USA-NATO space & air surveillance superiority. HIMARS units are being gradually destroyed, and Leopard tanks now too even more readily. Poorly-trained Ukrainians are killed in huge numbers by a Russian military with more ammunition, helicopters & planes, & better-trained troops in large numbers.
