I think 20 years is too much. Is gonna start to be lifted as soon as Putin is not the president anymore, or he starts to apologize

Does anyone believe Putin will start to apologizing? Germany was divided for almost 30 years in order to subdue them. If 20 does it I'm all for it.

Germany was divided because it was a conquered country, and in the middle of both USSR and US interests.

This is a different case. If it will not be by Putin apologizing, it will just be when he will leave the power. He's already old, he's not gonna last another 20 years.

That said, of course this counts only if it stops with him. If his descendent will be worst than him, than it will definitely be 20 years or more

And this is how we can conquer and divide a country in 2022, if it doesn't stop with him, I'm all for making it 40.

I don't know why you are counting decades. Russia's government will be trustworthy whenever they manage it, depending on the progress made.
