Military analyst Zgurets breaks down who gains, who loses from ceasefire in Ukraine

He stated this on Espreso TV channel.

“If we talk about who will lose more and who will gain more, it comes down to the efficiency of force recovery within one month. This period allows for certain adjustments, personnel reinforcements, and an increase in ammunition supplies. And this is entirely possible,” Zgurets emphasized.

According to the director of Defense Express, it is currently difficult to determine who would benefit more from a 30-day short-term ceasefire.

“U.S. aid has already been resumed, which allows us to rely on the previously accumulated supplies, and they are indeed reaching the Ukrainian Armed Forces. From the American side, this process is ongoing.

On the Russian side, restoring capabilities is a matter of replenishing manpower. We are aware of the enemy’s daily losses and the rate at which its forces are replenished through financial incentives for mobilization. We understand that over this month, the enemy could accumulate a certain amount of manpower and use it in the directions it considers a priority,” Zgurets explained.

The director of Defense Express added that both Ukraine and Russia would try to make the most of this time to enhance their capabilities along the frontline.

“But overall, Russia produces 130 cruise and ballistic missiles per month, and this production rate remains unchanged,” Zgurets noted.

• Meanwhile, Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin stated that Russia agrees with the proposal to cease hostilities in Ukraine, but “this must lead to a lasting peace.”
