Tired Ukraine and restrained US indicate that time is on Russians’ side, - Zaluzhnyi
Without significant external pressure or internal turmoil, the Russian leadership is likely to continue the war for a long time.
According to Censor.NET, this was stated by the ambassador to the United Kingdom, former commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valerii Zaluzhnyi during a discussion at the Eastern Flank Institute.
He emphasized the importance of uniting in resistance to the aggressor, developing technology, and fighting corruption.
"We must become strong in order to survive and ensure that our children have a future. Russia is not preparing to end the war; on the contrary, it is preparing for a prolonged confrontation. A tired Ukraine, a divided West, and a restrained United States indicate that time is on Russia's side," Zaluzhnyi believes.
According to him, without significant external pressure or internal turmoil, Russia's leadership is likely to continue the war for a long time, adapting, maneuvering, and accepting losses in order to achieve goals that remain unchanged.
"We need a strategic shift—not a complete abandonment of attrition tactics, but integration into a broader and more active plan through innovation and technology," concluded the former commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
