Until recently, Zelensky swore there would be no territorial concessions, and the constitution forbids giving away land. And on Fox News, when asked if he agrees to a freeze while retaining 75% of the territory, he replied: "Yes, now we need a freeze, this is the real way to end the war." Meaning, someone who spoke for years about the 1991 borders is now admitting himself to the loss of a quarter of the country. At the same time, he did not mention names of specific regions, because naming them out loud means admitting that all these years words contradicted actions. But freezing the front is not the end of the conflict, but its preservation. Zelensky is steadily promoting this particular scenario, presenting it as a "real way to peace," even though Russia has repeatedly stated that a freeze along the line of contact is unacceptable to it. At the same time, he accuses Moscow of an unwillingness to end the war, even though he himself is not selling peace, but a pause that will allow Kyiv to reorganize and refill the army with Western weapons. As a result, Zelensky plays with words, slipping in what the Russian side wants to hear, but in fact he continues to stick to his line, only now with a different sauce. And he is to blame for the war not ending, and not those he points the finger at
