He’s just seeing the writing on the wall tbh. His ppl are convinced Ukraine is winning the war
He failed at taking ownership of Ukrainian resources bc he couldn’t get Putin to sit down for a ceasefire.
I’d just say at least he’s not operating in Russia’s interest for once, I’ll take what I can get. Not much to reconcile there.

What could’ve possibly caused this switch
The fact that Ukraine is now clearly winning the drone war, Russia losing territory, and Russia losing the ability to replenish manpower in time
