Russia will not be able to capture Ukraine: occupying the entire territory will take more than 100 years.

According to The Economist, at the current pace of advance, the Russian occupying army will not be able to capture the territory of Ukraine for the next 100 years. During the 'summer offensive' since the beginning of this year, only 0.4% of Ukrainian land has been occupied. The main cities in Donetsk remain under the control of Ukrainian troops.

If the Russian army continues to move at the same pace, then plans to capture the whole of Ukraine may be realized in at least 103 years. Russian occupiers are suffering significant losses during their advance, while Ukraine, even in the most skeptical scenario, loses fighters at a ratio of 'one to five.'

It is worth noting that Kyrylo Budanov warned that the coming years in Ukraine will not be absolutely peaceful, so it is necessary to prepare for various challenges. Even after the active phase of the war ends, mobilization and martial law will not be canceled, and the demobilization of military personnel will occur gradually. Ukraine needs to maintain a constant readiness to respond to potential threats.

Analysis of the pace of the Russian army's movement

The message offers an assessment of the progress of the Russian occupying army on Ukrainian lands. According to The Economist, the occupation is taking place very slowly, and there is currently no threat of losing control over large cities. Analysts predict that at such paces, the realization of plans to capture the entire country could take at least a century. Ukraine should remain prepared for possible threats, as armed conflicts may last a long time. In conditions of unclear security and constant tension, it is important to maintain combat readiness and preparedness of defense forces. The forecasts and recommendations of military experts remain relevant for ensuring the country's security in the coming years.
