Russian President Vladimir Putin is relying on four main strategies to win the war against Ukraine. Two of them have not yielded results so far, while the other two still create real opportunities for Moscow.
Modern.az reports that “The Wall Street Journal” wrote about this.
According to the publication, Putin's first two plans were related to breaking the resistance of the Ukrainian army and the administration of US President Donald Trump forcing Kyiv to accept Moscow's terms. However, in both directions, the Kremlin's expectations were not met.
The other two strategies are to paralyze the Ukrainian economy with continuous missile and drone attacks, and at the same time to weaken Western support as a result of the strengthening of political forces in Europe that oppose aid to Kyiv.
According to “The Wall Street Journal”, these two plans are likely to yield certain results by 2027.
The talks held in Abu Dhabi this week with the mediation of the US also showed that the Kremlin has not backed down from its goal of dismembering and subjugating Ukraine, as well as reshaping the post-war European security system.
According to observers, Putin will most likely wait until the beginning of 2027 to see the results of his strategies. After that, he will decide whether to continue the previous course or change tactics.
International experts say that Russia is waiting for spring. Moscow wants to see what results the missile attack campaign will yield and who will win the presidential elections in France. After that, Russia will assess the situation.
