According to the publication, most intelligence representatives agree that the fighting will last for at least two years. Some US and Western officials also suggest that the war can last up to five years. According to one of the US officials, it is expected that in 2024 Ukraine will focus on strengthening its MIC and restoration of its forces, preparing for even more intense fighting in 2025.
"This is why the continuation of the event support is so important, since next year everything will be done to decide how events will develop in 2025 and possibly in the next period," the official said. According to a US military official stationed in Europe, a new attempt to have a major counter -offensive from Ukraine to break up occupation troops in Melitopol will probably be done at least two years.
The official claims that both sides are "too exhausted in terms of troops and equipment to expect great shifts in 2024. " According to him, Ukrainians consider 2025 as "a more real option in terms of what they can create a new offensive. " We will remind, on December 14 the head of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kirill Budanov stated that Russia does not yet plan hostilities in the territory of Ukraine in 2025.
