A new survey by Russia’s state-owned polling agency VTsIOM reveals that most Russians believe the war in Ukraine will conclude in 2026. The optimism stems from Russia’s recent battlefield advances and intensified diplomatic efforts between Moscow and Kyiv to reach a ceasefire agreement. The poll, conducted among 1,600 respondents, found that 55% expect the conflict to end next year, while 70% foresee 2026 as a more successful year for Russia overall.
VTsIOM’s deputy head, Mikhail Mamonov, noted that the positive outlook is linked to President Vladimir Putin’s recent remarks suggesting the “special military operation” could soon align with national interests and approach resolution. Despite ongoing economic and social challenges, the survey indicates a shift in public sentiment toward cautious optimism about the future.
Analysts suggest the findings reflect a combination of war fatigue and growing expectations for stability. However, observers warn that the path to peace remains uncertain, dependent on both battlefield dynamics and diplomatic negotiations in the coming months.
