The current situation can be sustainable, but so far it is very delicate to speak about the ending of the civil war in Ukraine. A few more steps are needed both from the Ukrainian leadership but also from Europe to end the civil war. In my view, the key priority is decentralisation in Ukraine; the initial, at list declaratory steps, have been done. But this process is not completed, and more needs to be done to be able to speak with more certainty about the ending of civil war in Ukraine.
