This is highly unlikely.
However the coming weeks and months shake out in this war and in the broader political picture, it's important to approach the situation realistically.
This isn't a video game, cartoon or Hollywood movie. The timeline isn't going to be measured in days and the primary agents' motivations and actions aren't as simple as in cartoons.
Pretending otherwise will only confuse you, over and over as events transpire, about why things aren't going like they would in a cartoon.

- signatoremo 5y agoThe longer the war the more likely Russia will lose. They won’t be able to control a large country as Ukraine, bordering NATO’s members, against a hostile population and well funded and well equipped insurgence. Their puppet that they will install in Kyiv won’t be recognized by anyone. In fact I’m not sure what Russia’s end game is. They only stand a chance if Ukraine’s people support them, which looks more unlikely by the day.
