Fun fact, western sanctions won't magically go away even if Ukrainians surrender and Putin got what he wanted đ„°
Not a single russian will have a retirement until every Ukrainian dead soldiers family is compensated, the country rebuilt, Crimea is given back to Ukrainians and Russia refund the west for all the equipment they've sent to Ukraine.
And you know what the best part is? The longer they stay, the longer it will take Russia to recover. And we are already speaking about centuries here.
So take your time, Putin. Tick tack.
Russia sucks the big one. But this is straight up deluded.
How so? We should bow to Putin?
Saying this scenario is wildly unrealistic is not the same as saying we should bow down to Putin. Itâs highly doubtful that Ukraine will even be able to restore all the territory theyâve lost since the start of the invasion, let alone get Crimea back. Sanctions havenât been all that effective at this point either. Russia is still importing processors through middle men nations and has found perfectly willing buyers for national resources outside the West.
Expecting to subjugate the Russian economy to indentured servitude to pay reparations not only to Ukraine but to NATO? Itâs just straight up not going to happen as much as we want to fantasize about it. I wouldnât even be surprised if most of Europe begins importing Russian natural gas within a few years of the war ending again.
