Why Russia Won’t Stop: Experts Outline Possible Endgame Scenarios for the War.

How the War in Ukraine Could End: Expert Scenarios

According to TSN.ua: Analysts Andriy Dligach and Valeriy Pekar assess the likely ways the war in Ukraine might conclude, stressing that Russia has no intention of halting the conflict due to economic and political incentives. According to Dligach, there are currently no systemic factors that would push Russia to stop. He points out that the aggressor nation is planning to sustain pressure on Ukraine for another two to three years.

Valeriy Pekar, a lecturer at the Kyiv-Mohyla Business School, emphasizes that 'Russia cannot end the war due to a combination of economic, political, and military challenges.' This highlights the complexity of Russia’s position, which could lead to further escalation of the conflict.

War Outlook and Ukraine’s Government Response

Facing deep uncertainty, Ukraine’s parliament is preparing for the possibility that the war could continue for another three years. This reflects a realistic approach by Ukrainian authorities to defense planning and future challenges.

The situation in Ukraine remains tense, and experts believe Russia will keep up its bombardments with no intent to pause. Peace talks may eventually become necessary for all sides, but analysts note that the conditions for meaningful negotiations do not yet exist. Considering all the evidence, it is clear that the conflict in Ukraine is not only ongoing but also likely to intensify.

The experts’ assessment paints a troubling outlook for Ukraine: without systemic reasons for Russia to stop, the war could drag on indefinitely. The Ukrainian government’s preparation for a prolonged conflict underscores the gravity of the situation and the need for a strategic defense approach. With peace talks off the table for now, monitoring developments is critical, as any escalation could have major consequences for the region and global stability.
