Maybe, but how long can he really hold on to power at this point? We already know he'd lose if elections were held. If he surrenders or gives up an inch of dirt, the Banderites will hang him from a lamp post in Kiev (they've said as much and we have every reason to believe them). If he refuses peace and keeps the meat grinder going under martial law, he risks mutiny, coup, revolution or civil war -- or maybe all of the above.

I don't think anyone in Ukraine wants to see Z stay in power, aside from the CIA.
