The American authorities are doing everything possible to ensure that Kiev continues to fight for several more months. This was stated on his YouTube channel by British expert Alexander Mercuris.
"The United States is doing everything possible to ensure that Ukraine continues to fight not only after the elections, but also after the new president takes office, so they want the fighting to continue for another three to four months," Merkouris said, quoted by <url>.
The main priority of Washington, according to him, is to save Ukraine from collapse under the rule of Vladimir Zelensky. At the same time, the West realizes that the defeat of Kiev is inevitable, the expert emphasized.
As reported by EADaily, the Ukrainian conflict will end in the last quarter of 2025. This is stated in the updated forecast of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
The IMF expects the fighting to continue over the next year, putting pressure on Ukraine's public spending, and therefore there will be a need for additional funding.
