And an eastern and southern Russian-occupied Ukraine, probably including Transnistria.

Notice that Putler for the most part is leaving NW Ukraine alone. It’s overwhelmingly Ukrainian and too near NATO borders.

It won’t be borders. It will be lines of control, much like what it was in the Donbas.

Sad all the way around for the Ukrainian people.
