Russia would gain Crimea, the US military would no longer be in Europe, sanctions against Russia would be lifted, and with UK and French troops in Ukraine, Russia would not be able to conquer Ukraine.
Russia already has Crimea.
But if you mean a full withdrawal of the US from Europe, then they would probably take my. US would never agree to it though
The US would withdrawal fully if it meant the end of the war in Ukraine.
The US would never give up its vassals in Europe for a single country.
The US has already said it will start withdrawing troops from Europe and Hegseth considers China a bigger threat than Russia.
You think they’re going to close all 38 of their bases across all of Europe? That would be a big strategic break from full spectrum dominance, which is US policy, and part of the plan to contain the growth of China.
I find that incredibly implausible.
