Ukraine Marks Four Years of Invasion Amid Critical Landscape 🎗️

Published on February 24, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

Ukraine marks the fourth anniversary of the Russian invasion in an unfavorable military context. Russian troops advance in the east taking advantage of their artillery superiority and the decrease in Ukrainian personnel. The lack of direct support from the US, which under Trump delegates to Europe, worsens the situation. Kyiv is forced into a complex tripartite negotiation that could lead to territorial concessions. 2025 was the deadliest year since 2014, with an increase in civilian casualties.

The Drone War and the Technological Gap on the Battlefield 🛸

The conflict has evolved into a war of technological attrition, where FPV drones and electronic countermeasures systems are decisive. Russia has achieved an advantage in the mass production of these drones and in its capacity to saturate defenses. Ukraine, dependent on external supplies, faces delays in integrating new Western systems. This technological asymmetry directly impacts the dynamics of the front, limiting Ukraine's response capacity.

The Final Peace Plan: a Tutorial for Losing Territory ♟️

The geniuses of geopolitics have designed a new tripartite negotiation formula. It consists of Ukraine, without planes or sufficient artillery, discussing borders with those who have erased them with a red pencil. Meanwhile, the other partner watches from the sidelines, encouraging European allies to foot the bill. A process as balanced as playing chess without pieces, where the only possible move is to cede squares. A true master's in 21st century diplomacy.
