I've been gaming this in my head, unless Putin is ousted I don't see a good end.

He'll take all civilzation with him. Radioactive contamination of parts of Ukraine is a no-brainer. We won't want to give him what he demands just to save face. If he kills Zelensky now there will be an uproar. But I don't think that will stop him. He's mad. Used to getting what he wants.

Anyone in Russia motivated and able to put an end to this before it's too late?
