Ukraine War Intensifies as Conflict Surpasses 1,000 Days

TL;DR Summary
The Ukraine-Russia war reached its 1000th day, marked by significant developments as Western powers, led by the US, increased military support for Ukraine, including the use of long-range missiles and landmines. In response, Russia lowered its nuclear weapon use threshold and deployed a new missile, escalating tensions. The involvement of North Korean troops alongside Russian forces and the impending US presidential transition to Donald Trump, who has promised to end the war swiftly, further complicate the geopolitical landscape. These moves suggest a strategic positioning for future negotiations rather than an immediate escalation.
