Putin and also Russia will NEVER accept an Ukraine being a NATO member - that's what this whole thing is about.
Due to NATO's and Ukraine's continued attempts in this matter - right up to NATO/USA promoting a proxy war, Putin in the meantime does not even accept an Ukraine as such anymore. Things really got far worse after Putin's failed coup and intimidating military move towards Kiev.
The way I see it - as long as Putin and the Russian army has room and $$ to breath - this war or conflict will never stop. Unless due to a major political shift in the USA or some NATO countries, NATO will always be able to match and outmatch Russia's military capabilities. NATO however will make sure that the whole issue won't result into a major issue between NATO and Russia. Thus keep Ukraine to be their playground.
The decisive factor therefore IMO is as to how long will the Ukrainian population (leave aside the woke Kiev community) be willing to endure a miserable and hopeless livelihood?
