In his Victory Plan, Zelensky believes that it is essential that the allies (i.e. the US) give the green light to attack Russian territory with Western missiles. But that alone will not change the course of the war.

Secondly, the Ukrainians have already previously crossed Russian red lines in their Kursk offensive. And Putin has not escalated the tension on any of these occasions," the expert told El Confidencial.
