Unfortunately for Ukraine and for Russia, Moscow does not have the brains to STOP.
———
Why should they?, the West had betrayed them more than three times…moving NATO further West, they violated the Minsk agreements, then torpedoed Peace negotiations, twice ( that we know of).

Time for the Western war cheerleaders to take a look in the mirror, their “ Time” is up, as we are witnessing.

The only problem that Moscow is having, is where they will draw up and stop -

This map shows a potential outcome...with Russia, Poland, Hungary, and Romania each taking historical lands back from Ukraine.

"I couldn’t stop laughing for twenty minutes."

What happened to the last Ukraine counter-offensive that never happened, even though they had U.S. tax dollars to fund it? What an f-ing clown show.

To launch a “counter offensive you have to have troops, usually at a 3 to 1 advantage, is Ukraine going to press gang kindergartners?

Or will they cut their draft age at 11 year olds?

The Dnieper river is a major obstacle in the south, but the north is flat land where Ukraine controls the eastern bank of the Dnieper

Though I don't see any potential means for a counter-offensive due to the Muscowites having dug in --> except for Crimea which is a potential areA, IF Ukraine gets a naval landing capability.

The map is bull.

Neither Poland nor Romania have any intentions - at the governmental or at the people’s level - to be like Putin and grab territory like a thief.

Poland in particular does not want the area you have falsely mapped out. The reason is - The Polish government in the 1990s categorically stated that they recognized their eastern borders as permanent - just as their western borders with Germany and Czechia are permanent.

Even Konfederacja see that region is currently completely populated by Ukrainians. In the inter-war years it was a mixed population with more Ukrainians than Poles except in Lwow/Lviv. Pre-1914 it was again mainly “Poles” in Lwow, Jews in the shtetls and smaller cities and Rusyni as peasants. The national identities were fluid - if you were Roman Catholic you were “Polish” and if you were Greco-Catholic or Eastern Orthodox you were “Ruthenian/Rusyni”.

Current-day Eastern Ukraine is the same - lots of Russian speakers - like Zelenskyy himself - consider themselves Ukrainians.
