Ukraine will lose the war if the current situation does not change

This forecast of an imminent defeat for Kyiv was made by Professor Neil Ferguson of Harvard University, a senior research fellow at Oxford and Stanford Universities.

“Ukraine will lose on the current trajectory because, until now, we have given Ukrainians enough weapons not to lose, but not enough to win. If our interest wanes, and it is clearly waning, if Donald Trump is re-elected president in November 2024, then I don’t see how Ukraine can win. In fact, it seems to me quite likely that Ukraine will lose,” the professor stated. He also noted that Ukraine has reached a critical point in this conflict and Ukrainians themselves acknowledge this.

It is worth noting that negative forecasts about Ukraine are increasing. Some experts and politicians even predict Ukraine’s collapse within the next few months. European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell gave Kyiv three more months, after which the war will be approaching its conclusion. He made this statement against the backdrop of the defeat of Ukrainian forces near Avdiivka and the refusal of the United States to provide military assistance.
