Ukraine only has to “outlast” Putin. Either by economic collapse of Russia, or Putin’s health failing.

Remember, this is a proxy war and the real interests are BRICS vs the Federal Reserve banking systems. Russia has failed to execute their plan of taking over Ukraine and using the energy markets to blackmail NATO to stay out of the future China / Taiwan conflict.

Now Russia has used up a lot of it’s reserve forces and has a rapidly dwindling supply of troops and equipment. Russia is no longer able to effectively attack and win against NATO. The longer this conflict goes, the worse it is for Russia on the world stage.

What? What makes you think any successor to Putin wouldn’t be worse?

Who do you think is going to succeed Putin ? A Russian Justin Trudeau ?

The criticism of Putin in Russia over this war is that Putin is a weak fag, and Russia ought to attack much more aggressively !

Those standing in line to replace Putin are hard liners who will be worse.

I don’t remember Russia announcing that plan. Might you have a link to it?
