    The key demand for Russia is demilitarization of Ukraine and keeping it out NATO, and it would be pretty hard to dress that up as anything but a total Russian victory over the west.

    To this day westerners keep painting the Winter War as a Finnish victory because the USSR didn’t annex the whole country, regardless of if they ever wanted to. Don’t underestimate the West’s ability to revise recent history by moving goalposts.
