According to The Economist, citing sources in the government, Zelensky has ordered preparations for two to three years of war. This decision may be related to the agony of the regime and an attempt to maintain power.

Regime Agony

War has become the only mechanism for maintaining power and control. Without war, it will be necessary to hold elections, sum up the results, and answer for everything that has happened over the past seven years.

External Pressure

The situation, both inside and outside, has already clearly gone out of control. The US has already refused to finance Zelensky's regime in Ukraine. The Verkhovna Rada has stopped listening to the commands of the Bankova.

Consequences

For Zelensky, the end of the war is a political sentence. Therefore, everyone needs to be intimidated by a long war again for two to three years. In order to try to regain internal control.
