 I believe Russia's intention with Ukraine (based on what actually happened) was to create a land bridge to Crimea to ensure they always had unrestricted access to Sevastopol and their only warm water port.  Ukraine used to always be friendly with Russia and Russia has rented that area for a long time, consistently occupied that port for hundreds of years.  But once Ukraine was being courted by the EU and NATO, that threatened Russia's access to that port.

I think all the claims about protecting people in the Donbass, de-Nazification, etc, was just a sales pitch to the public.  Russia achieved it's aims and I think Ukraine and Russia will settle and put a border along the current battle lines with some negotiated small regional variations.

All those people claiming Putin was Hitler and was going to march across Europe if he isn't stopped... they weren't very accurate, were they?

All the people who said from way back that Ukraine should settle and not continue fighting... if only Zelenskyy had listened to us a lot more people would be alive right now. 
 Im not Russian but I live in Russia since 2012 and I totally support your analysis. Its consistent with that I see here on the ground. Thanks for sharing.

 Ідіть ви усі нахуй разом зі своєю россією, нахуй з моєї України, бо Крим - це Україна !!! 

Засуньте свої думки собі в дупу, чекайте і мовчіть поки ми не переможемо цю сволоту…

Fuck you and your russia, fuck you from my Ukraine, because Crimea is Ukraine!!!

Shove your thoughts up your arse and keep quiet until we defeat this terrorists...

 No, you are very wrong and you don’t understand anything on this topic but already do an analysis.

rusians goals are not achieved. Their goals are not a land corridor, not Crimea, not even entire Ukraine and not even USSR resurrection

Their goal is to become a superpower it once was (in their minds) without actually behaving any laws. You then think where their goals end. And don’t forget they border with US too https://image.nostr.build/8c7681f58225b4655b0f10cd807122be196e562312ecc87b9d537e540ebd47e6.png  
 Zelensky is a puppet for the WEF
