I dont think it will ever be over while the west is driven to overthrow foreign governments by the greed of Wallstreet capitalist vultures. That is really the bottom line on all of this. They want to own the profits of every industry and resource that exists anywhere in the world and any leadership that wont sell is the next target for the CIA. They fully intend to break up the Russian federation into smaller states so they can install puppets like Zelensky that will orchestrate the sale of all their industries and resources. So Putin has to know their efforts to remove the Russian leadership by hook or by crook will never stop regardless of how much territory he puts between Russia and them.
