Russia is technically capable of waging war until 2026, and then the occupiers will have problems with the production of equipment.
This opinion was expressed on the air of the telethon by military expert, Major of the Reserve of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksiy Hetman.
"We are destroying about twice as many (tanks) as they can produce, but in reality – three times. If we use this arithmetic, then by 2026 their tank capability will be empty, at zero. Such figures can be given for artillery and other issues. In 2024, they can still fight, in 2025 it will already be problematic. By 2026, at this rate, they will have zero," says Hetman.
According to him, the only thing that the Russians are more or less good at is the production of aircraft.
"They can produce somewhere up to 40 aircraft per month of attack aircraft, fighter jets. We are not talking about strategic bombers or reconnaissance aircraft," the expert added.
How long will the war last?
Earlier, a similar opinion was expressed by the head of the Main Directorate of Intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov, who said that the Russian Federation could wage war against Ukraine until 2026 at the latest, because they would have problems with the economy and equipment.
Ukrainian volunteer and ex-presenter Serhiy Prytula said that his foundation is guided by the fact that the war will not end in 2024.
Military expert Serhii Grabskyi believes that the war could last until 2025 or even longer.
According to American military analyst Michael Kofman from the Carnegie Endowment, Western countries have come to the conclusion that Russia's war against Ukraine will be long and will not be able to end it with one counteroffensive.
