Why would it be unreasonable for Ukraine to take out Putin? It’s a war.
The only way this war ends is with Putin's death.
I'm not sure it would end it. The next person to take command would have everything to gain by winning what Putin couldn't. He'd also have everything to lose, but in Russia, you don't make smart choices, you make dumb choices and blame someone else when you fuck it up.
I'd argue the smart thing when succeeding Putin would be to end the war, tell the world it's a new Russia, and start getting Russian assets unfrozen.
I hate to tell you this but it'll probably end with putin alive and ukraine ceding territory.
That's a surprising claim.
How would that happen?
A result of a loss of manpower and eventual loss of political will to continue the war. The parts that Russia controls aren't coming back to ukraine except maybe the last 30km where russia hasn't set up proper defences.
