The chief of Germany army reserves says the war can last 10 years. By then Putin will celebrate 80 year old.
Putin will break Russia average expected living. usually in Russia men die before reaching 66 year old. Putin will shorten life expectancy of Russia men further like other Russia leaders in history. Many would die before reaching 55 year old. During Jelzin regime Russia reached the record of short life.
But hey Putin says in a meeting with fallen soldiers mothers. everybody will die, so make the best for motherland Russia.

When Russia is tasked with destroying the European Union, Russia does not intend to stop the war. Putin wants victory in Ukraine to move onto more invasions. As Putin has done throughout career as President/Prime Minister of Russia.
Europe must be prepared for a potential war with Russia, and a potential war with Russia with no help from
Russia Republicans.
Russia in February 2022 did not send in entire Russian military against Ukraine. Nor in mid-2022. Russia is saving equipment for a large scale invasion of Europe if Ukraine seeks peace with Russia. Russia wants Ukraine neutral during a war with EU.
Zell Miller exposing the concept that to fight and win a war you need overwhelming firepower and a military large enough to thoroughly defeat your enemy.
EU does not have enough to win against Russia, said NATO chief. Globally, Russia has the largest army of heavy weapons.
To win against modern huge armies, you need significant and substantial overwhelming firepower in one or more categories.
(1) missiles/airpower bombs (many thousands of cruise missiles and smart bombs)
(2) drones bombing (10K+ and ammo)
(3) artillery (10K+ and ammo)
These are range weapons that can destroy the enemy before ground assaults.
EU nations do not have enough overwhelming firepower.
Not everybody can be Finland, protected by snow and swamps. With a military for a civilian population of 5 million vs Russian 147 million population, catered to setting Russia in for a trap if Russia attacks.
Those drones dropping bombs and explosives are doing for, (without casualties), what it would cost many Ukrainian lives to throw those grenades and the precision of those drops are worth more than many artillery with ammo. Though drones are susceptible to EW, that is why you have artillery too. Balance of huge numbers of drones, artillery, and precision missiles and bombs. You could prevent a war because Russia would not want to pick a fight.
