If Ukraine wins, then their people will have to bear a debt that cannot be paid for generations.
Meanwhile, if they lost, they would have to surrender some of their territory to Russia!
There is no hope!

First talk about surviving before you assume winning. Any victory in war in any country is decided after the war ends. The aim should be to sustain defiance and lethality till the very end which ever " way" it turns. War never plays by rules.

Antonio Alvir What is the cause for the invasion/war in Ukraine?
Okay, It's a bit complicated. First, to simplify, let's see what aren't the causes.
Denazification? This was one reason provided by Putin which most know to be false. Zelensky is Jewish and was elected in 2019 vs Poroshenko, next runner up. Nationalism and Nazism are not the same thing! The Nationalist party, one political party of many in Ukraine, and seen as right wing, only won about 2% of the vote. So this means there is no Nazi party ruling Ukraine either.
Demilitarization. Putin stated this as a goal in the invasion. There are now more weapons in possession of the Ukrainian Armed Forces than any other time in history.
Remove Ukraine as a threat to Russian security? Ukraine gained it's independence in 1991 and with it inherited 1/3 of the entire Soviet Nuclear Arsenal (missiles, bombers, etc). By 1994 an agreement had been reached between Russia and Ukraine, through UK and USA for Ukraine to destroy it's Nuclear missiles, and weapons in exchange for a guarantee of security. Ukraine was a threat to Russia before 1994, not after. This agreement was also broken by Putin.
Putin claims he invaded to save the Russian speaking people of South Eastern Ukraine. He did the same thing about Crimea, but instead of giving it it's independence, he annexed it. Hitler used the same tactic in 1936 vs Czechoslovakia and the region of Sudetenland. As in Crimea, the Czechs appeased Hitler. They did not put up a fight but Later, Hitler still invaded the rest of the country. Putin invaded the heart of Ukraine, Crimea and the Donbas regions. To this day, any who can evacuate the region, run to the Ukrainians side, not the Russians if possible.
He liberates nothing.
He claims he supports independence for the separatists in Donbas. Most those "separatists" are actually infiltrated Russian soldiers incognito. This also happened in Crimea, where soldiers were seen without identification, and Putin denied this but 3 days later he actually admitted it since there was no resistance. The Azov are here fighting them, not killing Russo-Ukrainians. Why else would the evacuees run to the Ukrainian side instead of their "liberators"?
Another reason people have stated is because of NATO expansion to the east. Well, funny that all this started in 2013 when Ukraine had Yanukovich as president, and the people wanted a free trade agreement with Europe. Yanukovich betrayed them, and sided with Russia, likely through bribery. That agreement would cost Putin and his Oligarchs billions. Yanukovich was ousted/impeached and he ran to Putin's Russia in early 2014.
That same year is when Putin incited separatism, to destabilize the Democratic government of Ukraine and retake control after the event know as the Maidan Revolution.
Also Russian separatists,backed with money and guns from Putin, as well as other Russian people who were given incentives to move to the Donbas area.They could keep their Russian citizenship when they moved into the area. Like squatters. A slow invasion. They started demanding things they had no right to.
Then Putin couldn’t wait anymore. His health is fading. Covid has made him paranoid and anxious, to do somethingto give him the glory he needs before his death.
That's should be enough to refute the reasons Putin said he invaded.
Truth is Putin has lied, cheated and stolen, not only sovereign territories, but embezzled billions from Russia along with his oligarchs. An investigator researching these allegations was assassinated but not before he alerted others.
This is as much a cover up for his wrongdoings, fulfill his expansionist agenda, and the profiteering of his oligarchs which sustain him in power. Ukraine is the sacrificial lamb, that kicked Putin’s dog Yanukovich, out for democracy.
I may have missed a few details, but this is pretty much it. Nothing to do with NATO or the US. Yes with free trade and the EU. A sovereign country has the right to do business with whom they please. Putin would lose a major market, losing Ukraines business to Europe, and Ukrainian control to its own established democracy.
Putin’s top intelligence people lied to him , pocketed the money they said would fund the pro Russian movement inside Ukraine. When Putin invaded he believed that Ukrainian people needed saving from brainwashing, by USA, to have western democratic values.
He was not greeted with flowers. There was no welcome party. Putin fired and sent those intelligence officers to the gulag. Lost many Russian soldiers. One day he may be asked where they have all gone.
Meanwhile he used the full power of propaganda. In the Ria Novostra they published a paper sent to the Russian people about the new definition of Nazi as it referred to the Ukrainian people.
It said that “ you have had 30 years and now it’s time to pay for your “western values “”.
This is a new genocide where if you are not Russian, you are a Nazi too!
There is another article in the Ria Novostra about that as well. They believe that if you have been able to have freedom, you were lucky, and must go to work rebuilding the Russian territory in hard labour. This will help to rebuild your understanding of how gracious Russia is to continue to let you live. Those that do not want to be rehabilitated are unsalvageable, and must be liquidated. I don’t want to live in Putin’s regime.
What is your understanding/ definition of Nazi?
Apparently there are two different views. In German thinking of the past, it meant to them that they viewed the Jewish people in such a low regard, that they were less than others. ( not true☺️) I am not going to dig into that atrocity.
To others it means that they hold their country in such high regard, and it’s democratic western values, which must be a form of brainwashing by the west, because ordinary people cannot make important decisions. And must be made to pay for swaying away from Mother Russia.
So, this war is not really about the west . Putin just wants people to be fighting over this, and distracted, while they kill as many Ukrainian people as possible. He is a jealous angry old man, facing the end of his life, looking for a grand finale.
I will also add that there is some question about Frump and Putin’s relationship.
If you would like, you may copy the statement above to your notes. Feel free to share it to spread sunflower seeds of truth to all the concerned. This is how I fight.🇨🇦❤️🇺🇦

Also the chevron, shell, and exon mobil gas field developments were canceled after Russia took Crimea in 2014. That must have been a huge hit to the economy. Wendover productions made a video about Russian oil strategy a couple weeks ago and this was discussed.

Victory is justice done.
Leave your land and save yourself and others. Not doing so, is revengeful and are waste of all good on earth, that is what military aid is! Let Russia acknowledge that you are defeated.
No use of assumptious argument.
Since February, Zelensky's unable to save Ukrainian lives is proven.
This war , do not fall in this Zelensky trap.
Ukraine, ceasefire, surrender and war is over
What has world got do? Ukraine, ceasefire, surrender and war is over. Military and personal loss of life because of Ukraine. No, this is Ukraine's crime that is bourgeois . No, this cannot be allowed allowed, appeasing and running media, gamers, terrorist countries and salaries machine, it is an empty revenge and is inhumane, even when somebody helps.
This war , do not fall in this Zelensky trap. You have been given option to surrender, you fought, that is your sin You can saved their lives and still can reduce further losses. Save people's lives even if it means slavery. Let Ukraine's military do a complete surrender to clear the path for Peace. Signal your military surrender, defeat and peace to stop loss of lives! Come to your self senses. Ukraine to SURRENDER today. Contact Russian military to sign total surrender Since February, Zelensky's unable to save Ukrainian lives is proven.What kind of leadership, taking million, billion, had you surrendered, life would have been saved. Let Russia acknowledge that you are defeated!
Other Ukrainian s have followed the Wise path and gone to other countries, you must go, evacuate, leave your land and save yourself and others.
You can saved their lives and still can reduce further losses.
Do not use these comments to con or do double dealing, backstabbing, doing the similar opposites with letters etc in the comments.

Why won't their economy collapse, when this fool call zelenskyy is killing and destroying his own people and country for US and NATO, how stupid can one be, US doesn't give a crap about Ukraine and it's people if they do they would not be sending weapons to Ukraine for them to be killed, if US and NATO care so much about Ukraine this conflict wouldn't have happened. US is using Ukraine to fight it's proxy war against Russia, and that is pure evil, and it is the Ukrainians that are suffering not US, how evil can people be because of their own selfish interest.

Putin, 20 years as president of a country dealing with sanctions and crises, prepared well and caculated exactly for any circumstances would happen due to the war. Only Zelensky, who is blinded by Western promises is the one who must pay for his mistakes no matter which side is the justicw-holder.

Average income does not tell us much about the living standard of the population. It is more important how the wealth is distributed. In Russia 1% of the popolation earns most of the income, while 25% do not even have a toilet.

The worst part was that before this whole crisis began many Ukrainians were trying to branch out to the large European markets, this was a very large plan to help the economy of the country and its industry, but after the Russian sellouts thanks to
Viktor Yanukovych this was no longer possible factoring in also Russian political machinations, corruption, backstabbing, soviet communist imperial midset,
