Russia will not be able to capture Ukraine in 100 years: conclusion of The Economist

According to The Economist, at the current pace of advance, the Russian occupation army will not be able to capture the territory of Ukraine in the next 100 years. During the 'summer offensive' that began this year, only 0.4% of Ukrainian land has been occupied. The major cities in Donetsk region remain under the control of Ukrainian forces.

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

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

This message provides an analysis of the pace of the Russian occupation army's movement on the territory of Ukraine. According to The Economist, the occupation is progressing slowly, and there is currently no threat of losing control over major cities. Analysts predict that at such a pace, plans to capture the entire country will not be realized for at least a century. Ukraine deserves attention for its preparation for potential dangers, as armed clashes may continue for a long time.
