I would love for this to be true, but after years of this conflict going on and there being multiple points where "this is finally the end" in sight, I remain skeptical. I'll believe it when I see it. The UkraNazis are worse than cockroaches. Resilient, numerous, hard to kill pests.

And that's an insult to cockroaches. Cockroaches actually do contribute to the biosphere.

This is how wars of attrition tend to go historically. For a long time nothing much visible happens, and then the collapse comes all at once. Incidentally, this is how nazi collapse went during WW2 as well, and it started with Kursk.
