Aleksey Arestovich, adviser to the head of the Presidential Administration, made a new forecast about the war in Ukraine and the timing of the end of the active phase of the fighting. During the All-Ukrainian telethon, he said that the Russian army no longer has a quantitative advantage compared to ours, but they still continue to fight with entire full-time mechanized units, while the Ukrainian defenders lack weapons.

According to Arestovich, the active phase of hostilities should be completed by mid-April.. If a peace agreement is not signed before this time, a guerrilla war will begin..

" But after all, many of ours will die. Therefore, we have two options: we achieve them completely or a peace agreement. Let's see what will happen and how,"

He is also sure that it is Ukraine that will dictate the peace agreement..

" Such a victory for him could be the capture of Mariupol or Kharkov, or the encirclement of our troops on the southeastern flank,” said the adviser to the head of the Presidential Office.
