It is possible that the property of Russian state-owned companies and Putin's henchmen will be used as compensation for Ukraine. But it is too early to talk about it. Even after the withdrawal from Ukraine, Russia will not cease to be a threat. It was the same with Chechnya - Russia was beaten there in 1996, Russia retreated but started a new war in three years - and destroyed the Chechen capital by carpet bombing.
The Russians, as can be seen from the Russian contributors here at the forum, are - for the most part - staunch Nazis, mentally ill people. They are unable to live peacefully with neighbors who refuse to obey them. If they are defeated now in Ukraine, they will start a new war in a few years. If they manage to win - for example, through the use of nuclear weapons - they will go on to other European countries. In any case, there will be no peace. Therefore, the world, sadly, should prepare for the final battle. Negotiating with the Russians, talking to the Russians - it's like talking to a cancerous tumor. The tumor simply can not understand a human - it has no corresponding organ.
