VIDEO – Russia conquered 8 cities and 3,500 km2 in Ukraine last year, while the prospect of negotiations looms. In cards, Le Figaro takes stock of the political and military situation.

The year 2024 was marked by Russian successes in the theater of military operations, with 3,500 km2 taken and eight cities conquered, without the Ukrainian offensive in the Kursk region being able to change the situation. Certainly Russian gains are minimal compared to the size of Ukraine, but Russian forces are advancing in Donbass and the Ukrainian army is showing increasing signs of wear and tear, even if it is not collapsing.

The prospect of an end to the war nevertheless appears distant. Above all, in what state would Ukraine emerge?
