Are the Russians just going to be an occupying power for decades? Can Russia maintain that?
At this point, Ukrainians are so anti-invasion they will continue fighting even after their cities get leveled. If Russians do end up staying in Ukraine it'll be a pile of rubble filled with corpses and a humanitarian crisis that their sanctioned country can't afford. This Ukrainian MP puts it well as he takes up arms against the Russians.
