'By spring, we will know how it's shaping up,' retired U.S. Marine Corps Colonel Mark Cancian told Newsweek.
Ukraine is in a different position now due to Russia's strategic aggression, Cancian said, adding that a stalemate translates to Russian victory due to the Kremlin's occupation of about 18 percent of Ukrainian territory.
He expects the Ukrainians to target the Zaporizhian region, which is"not terribly well held" by Russian forces at this juncture. "By spring, we will know how it's shaping up," Cancian said."Russia could make headway in the Donbas."
