We are witnessing the formations of factions in the Ukrainian state. The “government faction” formed mostly of the legislative and executive apparatus with Zelenskyy leading, and the “military faction” made up mostly of part of the armed forces and headed by Zaluzhny. This is typically the kind of environment prone to coup d’état: most of the military being opposed to the government.

As Moon of Alabama wrote: In just one day a military coup In Kiev has suddenly become much more possible. As further the military situation deteriorates the higher are the chances that it will eventually happen.
