If Russia holds the western part of Ukraine, there's going to be decades of US-backed insurgency.

Don't think this is too likely - in your scenario, NATO would likely break up within 5-10 years and Europe would rid itself of a lot US influence.

inshallah

I think the "decades of insurgency" thing is already set in stone.

Can you conceive of a scenario where the region becomes safer than it was between when the coup got bloody and Russia invaded now that there's 100x more weapons and organized fascists?
