Given that it's a war of attrition that's been going on for over two years now, I suspect that most of the nazis are actually dead at this point. Hence why the AFU is now kidnapping people off the street and gang pressing them to fight. There very few motivated fighters left in Ukraine.

good point. However if there aren't any nazis left, i worry the US will just import them into ukraine like they did with the lybian militia (AFAIK some of them werent/arent lybian, bit were shipped there by the USA)

Things the US can get away with in Libya aren't gonna be possible in Russia. As an example, look at how things developed in Chechnya where US tried to pull that sort of shit.

Yeah I think that Russia will complete their control on Donetsk oblast, and maybe cross the river on the southern oblasts that they control half of it, and possibly just stand on the defense or slow down the attacks even further, so either Ukraine makes a silent armistice in the form of just not attacking anymore, allowing those territories to be more and more assimilated to Russia, or they'll keep limping along until there is nothing else left in the tank

It's also worth noting that the eastern parts are the ones where food production and industry are as well. So, once Russia move up to Dnepr, what's left of Ukraine is going to be even more reliant on the west to stay afloat.

From your lips to God’s ears, or however that phrase goes.
