Even Sanctions will weaken once civilians as the big multinationals try to recover losses.
To clarify though what I mean about him being right is the Ukraine is reduced to several puppet governments controlled by Russia with Donbas and Crimea as separate states. Perhaps western Ukraine left independent with Liev as Capital.

Every military analyst out there is saying there is no chance Kyiv will fall. Russias aggressive phase of the war is over… for now. Now they will dig in and try to consolidate.
In fact the institute for the study of war has gone as far as claiming victory for Ukraine in the first phase of the war.
“ NEW: Ukrainian forces have defeated the initial #Russian campaign of this war. Its culmination is creating conditions of stalemate throughout most of #Ukraine.”
