And how did the book end for the anti hero?
Russia is not Nazi
Germany. Nazi
Germany faced resistance in the Ukraine during WWII. Stalin killed millions of Ukrainians prior to WWII because they resisted and hated communism. After the war, the Ukrainians fought against the Soviets until the mid 1950's.
IF the Russians can take the Ukraine, it is highly questionable they can hold it, and it will cost them dearly in blood and treasure either way, especially with western weapons.
Russia has
lost this war. They are done. The variables are when will Putin stop this madness or when will someone stop Putin, and how many people have to die until then.
The Russian people are going to suffer for this war, as will many people through out the world, especially in the middle east, the longer this goes on. How much they suffer gets back to how long does the war last. Putin better be watching to the east, his "buddy" Xi might have his back...
