[quote=Anonymous]The war will likely “end” in a stalemate with Russia retaining de facto control of at least some of Ukraine. When Putin dies, it’s likely he’ll be replaced by another ant-west authoritarian. After a couple of decades of “proud” stagnation, the next generation will demand lifestyles closer to what they see in the West and the hardliners will allow a puppet reformer to be “elected” to throw them a bone. After that point, things could go either way. After a taste of of Western lifestyle kids could demand more, leading to more West-friendly reform. Or reactionaries could replace the puppet with another authoritarian to lock things down again. [/quote]
