Russia will win this war, and the outcome is not in question. There is no logical benefit for Ukraine to continue dragging it out. The end result will be that Ukraine will lose more territory and create a greater humanitarian crisis. This entire war could've been averted if Ukraine accepted being neutral and renounced NATO ambitions.

Ukraine isnt able to decide anything for itself. Its being managed entirely by NATO/USA.

Right, putting in a puppet regime that would be willing to destroy the country was the whole point of 2014 coup.

Ukraine will not win this war. But neither will Russia.
