President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky will face domestic political problems as a result of the lack of approval in the West of his "victory plan," EurAsia Daily cited a source as telling Strana.

"Zelensky has made himself a hostage to the decisions of the West on long-range missiles and the Victory plan. He was betting too much and categorically on it. And now, when there is neither permission nor approval of the "victory plan," it looks like a serious defeat for the president," the source said, according to TASS.

In his opinion, "if, moreover, the military situation for the Armed Forces of Ukraine deteriorates even more, then domestic political problems for the Ukrainian authorities may start to snowball."

The interlocutor of the publication noted that opposition Ukrainian forces close to the West "have long been promoting the line in the West that Zelensky is too authoritarian and corrupt to lead the country to Europe."

At the same time, he admitted, there are no signs that the authorities are beginning to prepare society for a change of scenario.

For his part, Ukrainian political analyst Andrei Zolotarev believes that against the backdrop of Zelensky's unsuccessful trip to the United States, the opposition will once again raise the topic of presidential elections or the creation of a "government of people's trust."
