I highly doubt the war can go past this year given the state of the AFU. The reality is that the west is running out of both manpower and weapons in Ukraine. The US will either make a deal with Russia or simply pull out the way they did in Afghanistan.
There could make a stand in the west, if/when the front collapses, which could make it last longer still but I guess if it gets to a collapse the more pro-war elements in Ukraine might just flee to the EU and start trouble there instead.
That’s what I’m expecting. The betrayal narrative has been picking up steam in Ukraine, and when the front collapses I think there will be a lot of backlash against Europe.
