The war between Russia and Ukraine is now entering its fifth year. What began in February 2022 as a full-scale invasion has evolved into a grinding, attritional conflict with global consequences. Front lines have shifted, strategies have adapted, Western support has fluctuated, and both sides have recalibrated their military and political objectives. But as the war moves into a new phase, the key question remains: where does this go next?
In this livestream, I join Pyotr Kurzin and Michael Rossi to examine the current battlefield dynamics, the strategic position of both Moscow and Kyiv, and the broader geopolitical context shaping the conflict. Is this becoming a long-term frozen war? Could 2026 bring renewed escalation? Or are we slowly moving toward some form of negotiated settlement? We will also discuss the roles of the United States and Europe, NATO, the sustainability of military aid, Russia’s long-war strategy, and Ukraine’s prospects amid mounting pressures.
