“It will end in a moment”: Zelensky’s unexpected scenario for ending the war was revealed

It will not be easy for Ukraine to liberate the territories occupied by the Russian Federation, Mikhail Podolyak believes.

Advisor to the head of the Presidential Office, Mikhail Podolyak, predicted the future probable scenario for the end of the war in Ukraine.

He believes that the entire internal legitimacy of dictator Vladimir Putin is built on the conviction of Russian elites that he “has not lost the war yet.” He expressed this opinion on the social network X.

“The Kremlin understands the inevitable: the more Russia loses occupied territories, the faster the regime’s support will decline. The murder of Prigozhin and the preparation of a new mobilization to saturate the front is a gain of time. But the clock is already counting down,” writes the OP’s representative.

At the same time, he is confident that Ukraine will not easily liberate the territories occupied by the Russian Federation.

“But it is very naive to think that Ukraine will have to return territories, winning every kilometer with blood,” says the adviser to the head of the OP.

At the same time, he is confident that as the Ukrainian Armed Forces advance in the South and Ukrainian forces enter the administrative border with Crimea, events will take on a different look.

“In the end, everything will end quickly and in one moment - just as it began,” Podolyak added.

Scenarios for the end of the war in Ukraine

Earlier, a top US general gave an alarming forecast: the counter-offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be long. For Ukraine, the war is an existential struggle for survival, says Mark Milley.
