WASHINGTON: Russia will not achieve a military victory in Ukraine, top US officer General Mark Milley said on Thursday, while also cautioning that Kyiv is unlikely to force out all of Moscow´s troops anytime soon. His comments underlined forecasts that the war in Ukraine is set to drag on, with neither side positioned to win a clear-cut victory and no negotiations currently taking place. “This war, militarily, is not going to be won by Russia. It´s just not,” Milley told journalists after the conclusion of a virtual meeting of dozens of countries that support Ukraine. Russia´s original strategic objectives, including overthrowing the government in Kyiv, “are not achievable militarily, they´re not going to be done,” Milley said.
