| SecondWar said: What do you think will happen should they surrender? |
Well, Putin's plan is pretty obvious, but nobody dares to print it in the papers. What he least wants is a surrender at this time.
Currently it is estimated that 1.5 to 2 mio Ukranians will flee or have fled the country. More will do in the next days so the end result will be:
a) These people are not coming back, ever, on their own.
b) Putin will send Russians to fill the empty spaces so he has at least a good minority number of Russians in the cities. Like the Dombass region he can then claim Russia has to protect those people. A "public vote" will then turn the Ukraine into a Russian province.
