Maria Berlinska on the war: how many years will the conflict last and what will destroy Russia.

According to ТСН: Volunteer Maria Berlinska shared her vision of the situation in Ukraine during the war and the country's ability to withstand this difficult period.

Losses and challenges

She noted that Ukraine is lacking the most important resource — people:

“We are losing people. Quickly, motivated, the best.”

Berlinska emphasized that the front is “deteriorating,” and this is evident even on public maps of the situation. Ukraine is also lagging behind in military-technical competitions, which creates additional risks in future battles. She remarked that the military-political elites continue to be “infected by theft,” which weakens the country from within.

Pressure on the state

The researcher also highlighted the significant pressure on the president and the state from both sides:

“They are putting pressure personally on the president, and unfortunately, in light of the corruption crisis, there is much to pressure him with.”

Ukraine is forced to withstand blows on the front, defend civilian cities, and resist attempts to coerce it into capitulation.

Prospects and hopes

Despite the crisis, Berlinska sees positive changes, primarily in the work of anti-corruption agencies, which, although with difficulties, continue their activities. She emphasized the freedom of speech in Ukraine, the holding of rallies, and that people do not end up in prisons for it, unlike in Russia.

In her opinion, this creates opportunities for a reboot of power and restoration of public trust, which can unite people before a challenging winter.

Duration of the conflict

Berlinska also noted that the war could last another 10-12 years in various forms. Even a “ceasefire,” according to her, will only be a pause between phases of the same conflict.

The main task for Ukraine is to hold out until the moment when Russia begins to crumble from within:

“If we hold on — sooner or later Russia will fall apart. It's only a matter of time, will, and our patience.”

The volunteer called not to succumb to illusions and political fairy tales, but to look at reality soberly and unite before the challenges that will determine the country's future.
