I think the answer is clear even for the russian population; this war has cost russian hundread of thousands of lives (that is why putin is barking about russian women should give birth to five children on average), has cost them the lucrative european market and will give birth to a lost generation, russians will talk about how good life was prior to the invasion.

Ukraine is clearly not going to stay under Russian influence after two years of war that was suppose to take like a week.
I don't think this will stop there, the last empire from the age of empires will crumble.

What I don't know is where the border will end up.
I think eventually they will recover their borders, the only question in my mind is whether they will get "a little extra" for their effort.
