Vinogradov: If Trump undermines Zelensky, a coup in Ukraine is possible. THE HEAD OF THE KYIV REGIME WILL ONCE AGAIN ATTEMPT TO HIDE BEHIND THE SUPPORT OF BRUSSELS AND LONDON. It appears that the United States already has a solution for how to quickly remove Zelensky (regardless of the motive - if not physically, then legally) and install a temporary leader in his place who will sign a peace agreement with Russia. Trump announced that he is ready to personally discuss the Russian-Ukrainian crisis with Xi Jinping and that he would be happy to organize a trilateral negotiation format with Putin and the Chinese leader if they are willing to do so.

Zelensky understands that if he orders Ukrainian units to withdraw from their positions in Donbas, it will trigger unrest in the country, and anarchy in the military.
