Ukraine Has a Tough Choice to Make in Russia War
Since the end of WWII in 1945, May 9th (victory day of the Red Army over the Nazis) has become one of the most important dates on the Russian calendar. Until 1990, it was as important as Nov. 7th (the Communist Revolution Day). Since 1991, the only other holiday equally important for the Russians is Novy God (their New Year’s celebration).
In the remaining weeks until May 9th, 2025, we will likely witness dramatic changes in the war raging in Ukraine since February 2022.
These changes can evolve in one of the following two directions. Either Ukraine will accept the harsh terms that President Trump is trying to impose, or it may face a major defeat on the battlefield.
Territorial Skirmishes
Ukraine’s invasion of Kursk was a “wild card” move that aimed at knocking the Russians out of balance, forcing them to withdraw troops from Ukrainian territory and, as some Ukrainians were hoping, leading them to agree to a ceasefire deal in which areas the Russians captured in Ukraine would be given back to Ukraine in return to the land they lost in Kursk.
