• The incursion of the Ukrainian army into Russian territory has slowed down after more than two weeks without a clear strategic objective.
• The operation initially demonstrated the weakness of the Russian army in the region and achieved several objectives.
• Long-term effectiveness of this incursion is uncertain.
• Initial excitement has turned into uncertainty about the long-term benefits of the operation.
• Russian forces have intensified their offensive against populations close to the Dnieper River.

Conclusion: While Ukraine's maneuver changed the perception about the dynamics of the war, the only long term objective cannot be to invade Russia. The situation is uncertain and requires negotiation and dialogue to find a long-term solution.
