The Donbas fighting will likely be over in a few days, but the REAL QUESTION is where does Russia go next? Odessa, or maybe West. Going to get interesting!

Easy, they start fortifying the Donbass, digging in, for keeps. Non western MSM has much footage of what Vlad intends to keep….he has engineering units digging huge areas with trenches, fortifying positions, very easy to see he will do as he said in his war speech, keep the ethnic Russian Donbass.
The Ukies will have to fall back across the flat plains west of Donbass to the Dniepner, sorry no “ big tank battle”( as the western fake news is reporting) as the Ukies don’t have much armor left.
Time to end senile Joe’s war, the quicker the better.
Agree, on Eastern Ukraine - Russia will NEVER let it go, and unless Europe is willing to send 5 million (straight) men, Russia won’t have much difficulty holding it. And even if Europe could find 5 million straight men, Russia will fully mobilize, if needed, to hold that land. They have NO INTENTION to have to fight for it again.
Ukraine treated their Russians well (enough) for 24 YEARS, and thus little violence and no need for Russia to intervene, but that wasn’t good enough for the Neocons, so they made their move in 2014...which forced the Russian response and puts us where are now.
