We're profiting from supplying arms in the meantime and then there'll be the inevitable re-build. We all know there are only two possible outcomes. 1. Diplomatic end and a stop to the killing and slaughter (it's no good yelling "he started it" that's why we need diplomacy) or 2. The West need to stop being hypocrites and fight alongside Ukraine. This risks WWIII and Nuclear war. So 1. is the only way forward.
But No1 is a no-go, you think Putin wants to sit down for a Diplomatic chat ( Didnt Macron try that at the start ) Putin doesn't want to chat, he wants to control the Dombas and Luhansk regions ( or the south and east area's if you want ) and then move and take it all
a diplomatic view might be the Ukrainians give him th South and east and should be happy with that, but it'll only be a matter of time till the troops and missiles are heading inwards to whole of the country, Putin knows the west doesn't want to get ' too involved " as it'll start WW3 and he has Nukes, so he can do what he likes
