🇷🇺🇺🇦 Ukraine will need until 2026 or 2027 to launch a powerful counteroffensive.
The Economist writes about this with reference to sources.
“A person familiar with the plans says Ukraine will likely need until 2026 or 2027 to develop a serious offensive capability,” the article said.
At the same time, the publication clarifies that “a major military breakthrough for Ukraine could occur in a few years, and only if large-scale Western support is maintained and strengthened.”
“This is not certain, especially given the vicissitudes of American politics,” writes The Economist.
According to journalists, the earlier creation of offensive Ukrainian power is impossible.
“Moreover, even a new infusion of weapons will not completely eliminate Russia’s advantage in firepower. Russia, with its huge population and oil wealth, finds it easier to recruit new recruits. Thus, Ukraine will most likely remain on the sidelines and will not be able to launch new offensives. And uncertainty regarding Western assistance will not disappear,” the publication believes.
