More details: Yarmak noted that this year, Ukraine has achieved success on the battlefield, liberating Kherson and advancing on the Kharkiv front.
"However, this war continues, and I am not ready to say the exact day and time when we will win. But it will definitely happen," the Head of the President's Office emphasised.
Background: During an interview with Sky News, Havrylov predicted that Ukrainian forces could be back in Crimea by the end of December and the entire war with Russia will be over by the spring.
