Not open for further replies.
Settlement with Russia?
We aren't stupid not to get that russia's target is to deUkrainize and submit all Ukraine sooner or later.
Any negotiatons with Russia will be useless...
Only idots and Russia's dick s*** ers are insisting on such long term scenario.

They need control countries.
Via puppet or ....by annexion...occupation.

In Ukraine they will do ....rusification and deUkrainization.
+ ofc next will be Moldova...as had been promised....
Georgia for sure too is scheduled ....just today puppet is enough good for them, therefore today they yet didn't had started deNazification in Georgia.
Later IMHO anyway will do...

It's what Dzhokhar Dudayev predicted would happen after all, thirty years ago. Some people just don't understand that russian ruling mentality (sick paternalist position towards Ukraine in this case). Western posters trying to project on Russia's side what a win or a loss means for them entirely neglecting the very own 'russian standard' and their 'goals and expectations'.

So in your opinion ( if ) Russia takes all Donbass Russia won't claim victory?
 
Maybe better travel to Donbas and apply to work for Russia in Donbas...
You love Russia so much, should help them to do deNazification.
Maybe Wagner will accept you.
If no, People's republic of Lugansk or People's republic of Donbas. might accept you....

Oh it's mr Libson to Vladivostok.

Not that this is what I want, but it seems to me that Russia can't just take Donbass and claim victory. At the very least they have to conquer a buffer zone outside the Donbass to defend it. They also have to get more territory so that they can negotiate a peace while keeping the Donbass (e.g.: we give you back this all territories except Donbass, in exchange you recognize our souvereignty over the Donbass).
 
I can see Russia completing their main goals in that time. How much longer than that could it take? They don't have much more to do. In terms of the Ukranians coming to terms with their loss of territory and the war formally ending that's far less predictable.

Regardless of the presence or absence of a formal result... do you see the fighting ending within 1-2 months?

Capturing the territories doesn't really mean much unless they can actually hold them. If the fighting doesn't stop, I don't think Russia can afford to be stuck in a quagmire long term.

I believe Ukraine has no chance of taking the territories back.

In terms of fighting ending that's a different story.

Valid point. I can't see them giving up the land connection to Crimea. That's why I thought maybe the north would be the " victory " for Ukraine
 
Man I fell off from paying attention to the conflict, haven’t watched any videos in ages, this shit really just made me sad.
The whole war is based on a lie (heard that before). The majority of Russian citizens actually believe that Ukrainians is being run by Nazis. You can see videos online of their citizens believing all the lies when questioned.
 
Russia is hoping Ukraine uses the western provided weapons to attack Moscow (which they wont). They know that this will end Western support if they do
They are likely to attack Eastern Provinces areas and mostly targeting civilians.
Further more response from Russia.
 
I feel like its the other way around. We appear to basically be at Ukraines beck and call.
There are many in Eastern Province of Ukraine that didn't like what the Ukrainian government was doing to them and to the Eastern Ukrainian people there who lived for many years.
 
They've been paying people to get the Russian passport.... also clearing debt from mortgages etc.

I'd be rocking both passports if I was stuck in the donbas. Wouldn't you?
Those people are stuck between a rock and a hard place. I have more sympathy though for the ones that are Ukrainian and love their country but don't want to be pushed off their land.

I get that some are ethnically Russian and would prefer Russian leadership but they are the minority in the country and can't just annex land. It seems a bit similar to a CHAZ scenario if they had backing from Canada. Nobody here would be OK with that.
