I don’t think politically he can survive after returning the Donbas and Crimea. Too many people have died and too many years spent on messaging to back down from it. But I can definitely see him giving kowtowing to the west just because he’s too trusting.
Why would he do that? I don't really see any indication of that happening?
Also "trusting" is not a word I would use to describe Putin
I didn’t say he would do that. OP said they predict Putin giving up all his strategic advantages, and I countered the prediction saying that even if he wanted to, it would be a political disaster because of all the men who died capturing it and how important he made the war seem to the citizens. Not to mention the actual citizens in the east and mainland Russians who will feel that he betrayed his people
