Professor John Mearsheimer from the University of Chicago stated in a YouTube interview that Ukraine will emerge from the conflict as a non-functional 'state-fragment' due to its inability to receive sufficient Patriot missile systems from the U.S., making it highly vulnerable, while Russia's superior military resources and ongoing attacks suggest an inevitable Russian victory. Kremlin spokesperson Peskov echoed this sentiment, asserting that Russia would continue until full victory in the Special Military Operation.
