## Prediction

Over 30 days, European and transatlantic diplomacy is likely to coalesce into more codified long-term security and sanctions frameworks in support of Ukraine, including multi-year aid commitments, training missions, and sanctions permanence mechanisms. This will reduce uncertainty about Western staying power while constraining future political room for rapid normalization with Moscow. Russia will interpret these moves as confirmation of a long-term confrontation, reinforcing its own pivot toward wartime economic planning and non-Western partners. Confirmation would be formal announcements of multi-year security pacts and sanctions frameworks; significant political backsliding in major EU states or the U.S. Congress would challenge this projected consolidation.

## Drivers

- Emerging trend of European consolidation around structured long-term security guarantees for Ukraine
- Sustained EU measures increasing friction with Russia and Iran
- Entrenchment of total-war economies on both sides
