“No, the conflict ends when Ukraine surrenders. That will happen sooner then you think.”

I think you are delusional. There is great hatred of Russia among Ukrainians, and that hatred goes back a looooong time. Russia’s invasion has just put that hatred on steroids. Even if Russia prevails on the battlefield, it will face an insurrection and partisan war for the ages.

In other words, Russia may win the “war,” but lose the “peace.”

Ukraine does not have the demographics

For a nation of 36 million they are not putting out much of an effort.

Update on Russian military operations for March 20, 2023:

- Russian forces are not only encircling the fortified city of Bakhmut, but now also apparently Avdiivka;

- Both cities are heavily fortified positions along Ukraine’s main defense line in the Donbass region and their encirclement will compromise the entire defense line;

- Western media continues admitting critical shortages of Ukrainian manpower, weapons, and ammunition;

- As Ukraine is preparing for its spring offensive, the US and its allies are likely utilizing emergency stockpiles to surge the amount of artillery and rocket ammunition to Ukraine in amounts much higher than have recently been transferred;

- his surge is a one-time possibility after which Western stockpiles will be exhausted and future shipments will depend mainly on monthly ammunition production which and will be for several years unable to match or exceed Russian ammunition supplies;

- Ukraine is being forced to organize a massive offensive using poorly trained troops operating equipment they are unfamiliar with against Russian forces who have been preparing to meet this offensive months in advance; - Ukrainian forces could once again compel Russian forces into withdrawals but will suffer immense losses before facing counteroffensives comprised of 350k Russian reservists;

Your posts continue to be completely devoid of intelligence and rationale thought. Like a good little Leftist - raging against facts. Raging against reality.
