the rest of the world and especially Biden just praying that Russia will win outright so they can slowly stepdown from their sanctions.... Ukraine was never going to be accepted into NATO, they (Ukraine) was just made used of to poke the Russian bear....they were lied to, courted and charmed by the world leaders but when it come to the real deal, all just step back and prayed (for a quick Russian victory so they dont need to step in)
Zelensky really have no other option...he cannot give up now when he have asked so many to fight (he is slowly realizing the rest of the world dont care....even after goating them, he is simply ignored..US even outright stated in public they don not want any open conflict between NATO and Russia). He also cannot fight for much longer...they only 'option' is to slowly crumple (more ppl dying with obvious signs that NOBODY is coming to help) and surrender to the Russians. Its very sad but nothing new for the rest of the world that is used to wars started in the US in the Middle East, Israel ongoing conflict with Palestine ..very sad the rest of the world is sort of immune to it.
