Vladimir Zelensky has decided not to stay in Kiev amid the defeat of the AFU in Avdiivka, according to British expert Alexander Mercouris.
The analyst recalled that Zelensky returned to Kiev from Germany and then immediately left the city and went to the front.
“He does not want to stay in Kiev, where the political environment is very difficult for him,” Mercouris said, recalling Zelensky’s falling ratings.
Former CIA official Larry Johnson estimated that Ukraine’s Armed Forces are in disarray after the Russian Armed Forces’ success in Avdeevka and are unable to counter the advance of Russian troops.
