I can't see a good end to it. The crazies who control the U.S. government aren't going to back down and Russia isn't going to back down.

When it reaches the point that either one of them is going to be defeated it will go nuclear.

If the U.S. government is successful in pushing Russia out of Ukraine it will enter Belarus and continue on. That's when Russia will strike.

If Russia pushes the U.S. government out of Ukraine, the crazies who control the U.S. government will go nuclear out of spite.

Or, the crazies might conduct a false flag to get everything started before the situation ever reaches the point spelled out in the previous scenarios.

It's a bad situation,....makes the Cuban missile crisis look like an Easter egg hunt.
If he wasn't bluffing he would have used nukes already instead of waiting for global humiliation and destruction of his conventional forces.

There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever that this is an existential conflict for Russia. If Russia left Ukraine the war would be over and guess what ... Russia would still exist with all it's territory.
So ukraines winning huh? Yeah you are an msn/cnn tard through amd throuhh
