Short answer: Ukraine surrenders. Long answer: Millions dead. People here no idea what is Putin thinking. He is hell bent to get Ukraine. When Russia did that 70 years ago, they don't mind 20mils to reduce Hitler's men to women child or old. Ukraine is far weaker than Nazi Germany. Plus, Putin can sponsor Iran and NK with massive nukes upgrade. He can also arm your average plane hijackers with that too. Zelensky surrenders will save many of us who are non-Ukrainian. The war in Ukraine will also stop. A couple of decades later, Ukraine can regain independence when there is a regime change in Russia. Putin not going to live forever but Ukraine can. I see so many people cheering for Zelensky are just ensuring death sentences for more civilians in Ukraine and also future terrorism-on-steroid victims. You all have gratifying emotional response to cheer for Zelensky, but logically to surrender is better outcome here even though extremely hard to do. Just go read Russian warfare doctrine. Never they do a short war. It is always war on attrition unlike American "mission accomplished" short war doctrine. There is no point talling ahypothetical fantasy not existing. We all know Western countries are reluctant to use nukes while Russia always will (read their doctrine and military training). Russia has bigger land and more obscure than western counterparts. In EVERY multiverse of nukes warfare, Russia always come out ahead (yes pyrrhic victory but still wins).
