Zelensky, the brilliant and enlightened man, upheld and respected the Minsk agreements to the letter. Jailed all aggressors against minorities in the Dombas region regardless of which side they were on. Instead of picking sides and supplying his befriended oligarchs with arms and free reign in terror. Sent all the US-NATO "special advisors" packing out of his country. Unlike Cuba, after the US tried to kill their president, he timely stopped talks of joining NATO to prevent Russia from getting too worried about having nukes on her border. Finally, he invited the UN peace task force to help ensure peace in the Dombas region and he upkept strict neutrality.

The rest is history, peace and prosperity. The invasion that never happened.

The only little glitch in this perfect little story, again, is he did the exact opposite. Story of his life. So he got the exact opposite outcome and made Ukraine history, "till the last person standing". As the US senator Lindsey Graham was so kind as to specify. Who is of course besides being a huge MIC investor, is also a big shareholder in Blackrock. So he got the deal and big bonus of his lifetime selling off Zelensky twice. Double whammy for the poor Ukrainians. Don't trust the Russian, but never trust the Americans.
