Putin is preparing Russians for a protracted war – ISW

The current goals of the President of the Russian Federation in Ukraine are “clearly imperialist and maximalist,” military analysts believe.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has created the conditions for a protracted war of occupation in Ukraine. This was announced by the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) in a report for December 7th.

So, at a meeting of the Human Rights Council, Putin said that a “special operation” in Ukraine could be a “long process,” and the acquisition of new territory could be a significant result of this process for Russia.

He also compared himself to Tsar Peter the Great, noting that Russia now controlled the Sea of ​​Azov, where Peter also fought.

“This appeal to Russia’s imperial history clearly portrays Putin’s current goals in Ukraine as overtly imperialist and yet maximalist. Putin expects the Russian audience of a protracted, exhausting war in Ukraine that remains aims to occupy additional territories of Ukraine,” they stressed. analytics.

According to ISW, the Russian information space responded positively to the president’s statements. One of the bloggers compared Ukraine to Syria, noting that Russian troops won significant victories on the battlefield just a few years after the start of the operation.

The Kremlin has been setting information rules to drag out the war in Ukraine since the summer after Russian forces failed to secure and hold their key objectives. This is fundamentally incompatible with any ceasefire discussions or negotiations.

Earlier, US intelligence reported that Putin did not anticipate the failure of Russian troops in Ukraine and that it could affect his war aims. At the same time, the Kremlin does not intend to give up long-term plans of occupation.
