Analysts in Turkey argue Putin was "lured into a trap" in Ukraine by the West, who wants to weaken a possible Russian alliance with the real perceived rival; China.
Journalist Gurkan Zengin claims Ukraine war is designed as a war of attrition for Russia to bleed the country of its resources and will to fight by the West, and Zelensky were given misleading signals.
Zengin says eventually Russia would achieve its goals by sheer force but in the meantime during a prolonged war it will weaken. According to Zengin, the biggest loser of this war would be the people of Ukraine and history will remember Zelensky as the way it choses.
The veteran journalist says Zelensky might be hailed a hero or a traitor for bringing destruction on to his people by putting too much faith in the Western allies.
