Ukraines military command apparently lies to the countrys leader about the front, Moscow has said

Ukraine's Vladimir Zelensky is either "divorced from reality" after being deceived by his military commanders or deliberately lies to his nation, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Wednesday.

The rebuke came in response to claims made by Zelensky about the situation in Kupyansk, where he said Moscow's forces are being pushed back. The Russian military said the opposite was true.

"The head of the Kiev regime is fully divorced from reality and, after hearing untrue reports from [armed forces Commander-in-Chief Aleksandr] Syrsky has no command of the operative situation on the ground," the Russian statement said.

"Alternatively, he realizes the desperate situation and the true position of the Ukrainian armed forces in Kupyansk. That is why he is trying to keep hiding the truth from the people of Ukraine and his Western sponsors at the cost of ignoble deaths of thousands of Ukrainian troops."

The ministry suggested that Kiev could be stalling to secure and embezzle additional aid from the West. It added that the situation is only getting worse for Ukrainian soldiers, who are not given any options by their commanders to save their lives except surrendering to their Russian opponents.

Zelensky previously claimed that the Russian military presence near Kupyansk was limited to a mere 60 troops and that the Ukrainian military had a roadmap for completing a "swipe" of the area, which he declined to disclose.
