David Rothkopf: “The likelihood that the conflict may go on for much longer is based on the fact that neither side is in a position to win a quick victory.”
“For all their courage and the damage they are inflicting on the Russians, it is hard to imagine Ukraine’s armed forces will drive out Moscow’s troops any time soon. More likely is that Russia continues to make slow gains. They are not well set up for urban fighting and we could see stand-offs in major cities.”
