I don’t know how true this is, but this “war” will end at such time as everybody involved can claim a “victory” of sorts. Resistance to funding Ukraine is getting to the point where it’s becoming a political problem for it’s supporters, and while there’s been big money made on the war, the really big money will come afterward. The printing presses in Washington and Brussels are probably being lubricated as we speak. Dreams of the hundreds of $billions to be pilfered are dancing in their heads. After 2 years of destruction, just imagine the funds needed to rebuild! The defense establishment got their share first, now it’s everyone elses turn. Of course the politicians get theirs all the time.

After Vlad is convicted as a war criminal, his checking accounts and yachts can be confiscated to pay for Ukraine reconstruction and reparations.
Of course, a mere $300 billion is not enough, but it's a good start and will likely need a Russian oblast or two transferred to Ukraine to mark Russia's debts for Vlad's invasions as "paid in full".

There are said to be ten in total:
