COL. Douglas Macgregor : Is Putin Losing Patience? (Judging Freedom)

Russia has realised that any negotiation with the US will be fruitless. The same situation applies to the war against Iran. Russia and Iran will only stop once the US withdraws itself from both conflicts, and where their demands are essentially met. 

Putin has indicated that Ukraine is set to be broken up, with the East and South controlled by Russia and the Western rump given to Poland or Romania. But in reality all of Ukraine will likely come under Russian control to stop it being used as a staging ground for further attacks.
