The Ukrainian midget doesn't want a peace deal (that the Russians wouldn't agree to anyway)
War time is high time for defense contractors, bankers and thieves. It's also necessary when nobody likes you anymore and remaining in power is the only alternative to prison, or worse.
For all intents and purposes, the Russia-Ukraine war is over. The good guys won and the 'most corrupt country in Europe' lost, but Trump wants that Noble Peace Prize and Zelenskyy is being a stubborn obstacle. The power-hungry little clown has his own desires, such as keeping his ass out of prison and further increasing his wealth and that of his handlers. Peace is not in the cards, not that it matters given Russia's position. There will be no deal to accept because the Kremlin will dictate the terms of Ukraine's surrender and the longer Zelenskyy and his little band of thieves keep the charade going, the worse it will be for Ukraine.

12bytes: What no western talking blob will elaborate on is the numbers. Granted, they're classified, but aerial photographs of cemeteries and body exchanges aren't and according to estimates, Russia has lost ~170,000 KIA while Ukraine's losses are approaching 2 million KIA. The current kill ratio is roughly 10:1, perhaps higher, with many hundreds of Ukrainians being killed daily and hundreds more being captured, or abandoning their units, or abandoning the country, the population of which is about half of what it was pre-war.
Some irrational people are involved in negotiations to end the war, who believe that it is necessary to talk only with Ukraine and not talk with Russia. But it is impossible to end the war without dialogue with Russia.
