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?
i had an incredible laugh at the thought of orban trying to reclaim karpatalja from ukraine and the ragged AFU left to the rump state just rolls over hungary in about 9 hours and annexes it.
lol I recall one of the azov leaders was actually saying that they should split the AFU in two and attack Europe for betraying them a while back, I kid you not
yeah but they could actually take hungary, for real
lol yeah
Was trying to think of a historical precedent for an Ukrainian occupation of Hungary and I don’t think there is one. That might be a new one in the chapters of the War Peninsula.
only under the aegis of the russian empire (1848, brief, partial) and later the soviet union (temporary until communist hungary formed)
that is, ethnic ukrainians were involved in occupation of hungary.
Thank you, I was trying to think of anything earlier but yeah that seems to be it.
i guess if you count the mongol occupation (again, brief), there may have been some ukrainians in that army too :D mongols swept up anyone willing to fight alongside them as they went, i think.
It might have more to do with slavery and enforced conscription, which played a significant part in the Mongol empire, than “willingness” lol
“join us or die”
