Will a formal Russia-Ukraine ceasefire hold for 30 consecutive days or more before the end of 2026?
unlikelyno number: judgmentlow confidence

by end 2026
Positions on territory and NATO remain far apart, and past ceasefires have not held; a durable 30-day halt is a high bar on this horizon.
Players and wants
Russia recognition of territorial gains and a Ukraine outside NATO
Ukraine sovereignty, security guarantees, and no formal cession of territory
United States and Europe an end to the war on terms that do not reward aggression, at a sustainable cost
What would change this
- a battlefield stalemate that raises both sides' appetite for a pause
- a shift in US or European military support
- a domestic political change in Moscow or Kyiv
Resolves Resolves 'occurred' if a publicly-declared ceasefire holds without major hostilities for at least 30 consecutive days before 31 December 2026, per OSCE or major-wire confirmation. Resolves 'did_not_occur' otherwise. Source of record: OSCE reporting and major wires.
