Military expert and reserve colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleg Zhdanov believes that the war in Ukraine will last months, not years. In an interview with RBC Ukraine, he explained his assumption. “First, no matter how hard Russia tries, it is not preparing for a long war. Its economy is stagnant today due to sanctions. Now it is unrealistic to put the economy on a military footing for a protracted war, it should have been done a year ago, Zhdanov explains. – The second factor is the West, which started giving us weapons and help. I don't think they are ready to go to war with Russia for two or three years. They expect to invest in Ukraine to make a profit from the reconstruction and development of our economy. “
