Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has instructed officials to consider and prepare for the possibility that the war could continue for several more years, The Economist reports, citing anonymous sources in the Ukrainian government.
Ukraine has achieved positive results on the battlefield over the past several years.
According to the report, “Ukrainian commanders have managed to thwart Russia’s ground operations through drones, and over the past several months the Ukrainian army has killed more Russian soldiers than Russia can replace.”
According to the sources, peace talks could begin in the summer, but the most likely scenario is that the war will continue until one of the sides surrenders.
