What counts

Russia must start a military offensive to control part of a UN member state's territory (excluding Ukraine) by December 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET for the market to resolve to "Yes." The deadline is strictly based on Eastern Time, not local Russian time. Readers often mistake the end date as 2027, but the resolution rules specify 2026.

Written from Polymarket's resolution rules by the same model that writes our headlines. The rules on Polymarket are what decides it.
