Italian Army corps Gen. Marco Bertolini, former commander of special forces and of numerous special operations in Lebanon, Somalia, Kosovo, and Afghanistan, believes that if Zelenskyy does not accept the so-called 28-point plan ("Trump’s peace plan"), Ukraine will be defeated and some European countries, led by the U.K., will turn it into an “Afghanistan.")
“The peace plan on the one hand, military action on the ground on the other, and the climate of corruption can be seen as converging actions to bring to an end a war that is creating and will continue to create major embarrassment for Europe, which has wanted at all costs to continue sending funds to support it and is still struggling to do so,” [Bertolini wrote](https://www.ilsussidiario.net/news/ucraina-e-piano-usa-1-a-zelenskyy-resta-solo-trump-se-fa-come-dice-lue-avremo-un-nuovo-afghanistan/2906708/ in a Nov. 21 article for Il Sussidiario.
