Indian military expert and IAF fighter pilot VK Thakur says that Ukraine's attempted drone strike on the Kremlin is an attempt to get NATO involved in the conflict. Ukraine's much-hyped counter-offensive makes no sense without NATO involvement. From this point onwards, Zelensky is unsafe staying in Ukraine.
Speaking speculatively, it's possible that the attack was ordered with US blessings without Zelensky's knowledge, perhaps as an inducement for Russia to take Zelensky out of the picture. Peace could have a better chance with new Ukrainian leadership, Thakur added.
