If Russia’s economy continues to decline, and if the West succeeds in deterring Putin from further use of force, it is still conceivable that some acceptable resolution (a form of which I recommended publicly by talking about the Finland model) may be contrived. But that depends in turn on the West’s firmness in supporting Ukraine’s efforts to stabilize itself.
Si la economía de Rusia sigue declinando y si Occidente logra disuadir a Putin de un mayor uso de la fuerza, aún es concebible que se idee alguna solución aceptable (una de cuyas formas recomendé públicamente al hablar del modelo de Finlandia), pero depende, a su vez, de la firmeza de Occidente al apoyar las medidas de Ucrania para estabilizarse.
