Zelenskyy says there will be no retaking of Crimea by force. Ukrainians are sick of war and destruction. This isn’t a hoorah war; it’s a national tragedy.
I expected this but not before negations started. Crimea was Russian until 1954 when clerically it made sense to move it to the Ukrainian Socialist Republic, so insurgency would be a nightmare. Donbass is going to be the final sticky wicket. Maybe some movement on borders or some land for cash (if Russia pays damages, which I expect would only be if Putin was gone and they want sanctions lifted.)
