The war that Russia unleashed against Ukraine is likely to end in 4-6 months. And its result will be similar to the one that arose in the 1950s as a result of the Korean War..

About this, according to Newsweek, said the former commander-in-chief of the joint forces of NATO in Europe, James Stavridis.. In his opinion, both sides are "

“Ukrainians are fighting very powerfully. Vladimir Putin's military plans turned out to be practically ineffective. He conquered much less territory than he expected at the beginning of the conflict,” Stavridis said..

“But I see that everything is moving towards an end in the spirit of the Korean War. This means that there will be a truce, a militarized zone will appear between the parties, hostility will continue.. Such a frozen conflict. This should be expected in 4-6 months. Neither side can hold out any longer,"

Earlier, Bloomberg also admitted that the Russian war against Ukraine could end in the same way as the conflict on the Korean Peninsula in 1953 or like the Soviet aggression against Finland in 1939-1940s.. No one will sign the peace agreement. Mutual desperation will force both sides to stop fighting along a certain demilitarized zone. But such a result will not be as acceptable for Ukraine as it turned out for South Korea..
