NATO's Plan B For Ukraine's Defeat

The Terrorist attack on the Crocus concert hall in Russia has changed the frame of the Ukraine special military operation for Russia and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Despite the fact that Russia has successfully attritted NATO and Ukraine and are on a guaranteed path to victory, though it will be allow and steady, I believe it has dawned on President Putin that achieving the goals of the SMO and taking Donetsk will not be sufficient as long as the current Zelensky administration remains in power. The signal of the shift came when Victoria Nulled- the mother of the Ukrainians proxy State resigned in February 2024, which indicated to many that the US had wiped its hands clean of the Ukrainian war. But her statements recently- that Russia should prepare for some nasty surprises, just a few weeks before the Crocus Hall terrorist attack made it clear to Russia that Ukraine will adopt a new tactic in spite of its defeat in the ground war. Even if Russia takes eastern Ukraine, the West may continue to support Ukraine financially just enough ti allow it to continue to be a thorn in Russia's side by facilitating and orchestration future terrorist attacks. Clearly, they want to provoke Putin into a rash action. perhaps to try to take Kyiv militarily. Kyiv is a city of 3 million people and could prove an impregnable fortress for the Russians. I fear that if Putin reis to take Kyiv by sending an army there, he could be walking into a trap.
