We don't know for now anyways. Also, Zeke (much like all the other Eldian warriors of Marley) is brainwashed by the Marleyans, or he's being forced to do things like this either way. Eren may even understand this and want to give him the benefit of the doubt. At least from my experience, in a number of franchises I've followed, some bad guys can become major helps later on. Perhaps something similar will happen with Zeke (along with the other warriors) as well, and Eren may be instrumental in making that happen when he finds new compassion.
