I know no one here is part of the Russian government, so I’m not expecting concrete answers here.

What I’m asking is simply what will happen if [well, when, at this point] The Ukraine ends up…falling, per se?

That’s a question in of itself really. Will Ukraine fight until the AFU collapses? Will there be a coup? Would a pro russian or neutral ukraine be established across all of what is currently the Ukraine, or will there be an attempt to make a “taiwan-ified” state in the west?
