Repeating fantasies over and over doesn't make them materialize, Ukraine can't win a war of attrition against Russia.
And yet you keep repeating the fantasy of letting Russia win
It's not "letting", there are no other choices other than to accept that Ukraine can't win or spiral down into further delusion.

There are all sorts of choices.
Russia could come to their senses and leave.
Russia could continue wasting their resources until they have to accept unconditional surrender.
Russia or an ally could go even more pants on head stupid than they already are and do something that triggers a NATO Article 5 response.
You really need to feel this in what's left of your soul
And yet, they are. If the Russian command had any sense, they'd roll back to their side of the border.
