What’s next in the Russia-Ukraine war?
It has already been 1,000 days since the war between Russia and Ukraine, but so far there are no signs that the war will stop. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated on Tuesday that next year 2025 will be decisive in determining who wins the war started by Russia almost three years ago. Ukraine attacked a military base in the Russian border region of Bryansk with long-range ATACMS missiles received from the United States. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, Ukraine attacked with six ballistic missiles at 3:25 a.m. local time on Tuesday.
The attack came a day after the Biden administration gave Ukraine permission to attack. We told you that Ukraine had been seeking permission from the United States to use these missiles for a long time and US President Joe Biden approved this decision to Ukraine just two months before his term ended and Zelensky’s army launched ballistic missile attacks against Russia. They were fired.
Putin’s tough attitude and amendment to nuclear doctrine approved
In a clear message to the United States and the rest of the West in response to the invasion of Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday approved a review of his nuclear doctrine amid the ongoing war with Ukraine. This new Russian policy expands the scope of when Moscow can use nuclear weapons. The new policy also allows Russia to use its nuclear weapons as retaliation in the event of an external attack. In such a situation, Russia can now use nuclear weapons at any time in response to ballistic missiles.
Continued attacks in Russia and Ukraine
Before the Ukraine attack, Russia carried out an airstrike on Ukrainian residential areas for the third time in the last three days, killing 12 people, including a child. Ukrainian rescue service officials said Tuesday that 11 people, including two children, were injured in a drone attack in the Sumy region. Let us tell you that it has been 1,000 days since Russia attacked Ukraine and this war can now take a new turn. The eyes of the entire world will now be focused on this war to see where it will go.
Ukraine looks at the United States: Will Trump end the war?
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said Russia’s war in Ukraine will end “quickly” when Donald Trump becomes US president. National security analyst Beth Sanner says Zelensky is signaling to the incoming president that he is willing to negotiate.
After winning the US election, Donald Trump has continually said that his priority is to end the war. During the election campaign, the former president-elect repeatedly promised to end the war “in one day,” but has not yet revealed how he intends to do so.
“It is certain that the war will end soon with the policies of the team that will now lead the White House,” Zelensky said in an interview with the Ukrainian media outlet Szpilne. This is their vision, their promise to their citizens.”
