The most important question after the attack on Moscow. The answer will bring the end of the war closer or further away


Ukraine's unprecedented attack on Moscow reverberated around the world. It showed that Kiev has the ability to respond to the Kremlin's massive air attacks – and by hitting the theoretically best-guarded city in Russia.

However, there is one key difference between Ukrainian and Russian operations of this type – the Russian army carries out them almost every day, using hundreds of drones to attack, supported by a dozen or even several dozen ballistic and cruise missiles.

Putin is counting on only one answer

The most important question after the weekend attack on Moscow is therefore this: Is Ukraine already able to regularly carry out such large-scale strikes against Moscow and other Russian cities? The answer to “yes” should bring us significantly closer to the end of the war, because it is clear that Putin will end his operation only if he is simply forced to do so. However, if such attacks occur only once every few months, they will not put much pressure on the Russian president.

Importantly, we should know the answer to this key question soon – probably in the coming days and weeks. If Ukraine launches another such strong attack at this time (perhaps using new ballistic means), it will be a clear signal that the war has entered a completely new, and probably the last, stage before the start of real peace talks. Otherwise, we will know that Kiev's kinetic sanctions are still not strong enough.
