How much longer will the war in Ukraine go on? Many had hoped that it would end quickly with a new president, but that does not seem to be happening. Do you have an opinion on the matter? Feel free to share your thoughts.

I just can't think of the incentive for Putin to end the war, unless he gets all he's demanding. The Europeans won't give him all he's demanding because they know that if they do, he'll start picking on another country and war will continue. The west doesn't want to fight Putin directly and they can't afford to give him all that he wants. Putin plays a long game and is willing to take the losses he's taking. It's a recipe for a long war.
