The only realistic option to end this is the total seizure/capitulation of the land called Ukraine to Russia.
The west have too much strategically to let this go but aren’t capable of driving out an army the size of Russias from next door. It’s not realistic.
At present we have a restricted war where there is attrition and casualties but no game altering strategic actions.
That may yet come into play. That is what will end it.
Otherwise we’ve got another Syria on our hands - and who wants that ?
Not going to lie, that's completely mental... this is a land grab, if what you are saying happens then Russia will attempt similar land grabs in other states.. Appeasement has never worked it has only ever led to further bloodshed. Putin wants his name in Russian history books along side other Russian hero's who expanded Russian lands.. he is nothing more than an egotistical monster using BS excuses to justify genocide in Ukraine.
Security the country with the most Nukes in the world isn't worried about security.
Nazis yes there was an element of Nazis in Ukraine but Russia has a far bigger nazi element than Ukraine ever had.
Demilitarise Ukraine wasn't overly powerful and posed zero threat to Russia.
The people in Dombas wanting to be Russian this was a staged event everyone knows this.
There's 2 reasons for this war
1. Land grab.
2. A fear of democracy.
