My guess is if Ukraine can hold out long enough, world opinion against Russia will increase to the point where Russia will back off. They'll keep the 2 friendly regions and call it a win.
The big one is China. From what I've been reading in reddit (reliable as always), Chinese citizens favor Russia (primarily an anti-US, anti-West knee jerk reaction) but Chinese government seems to have gone more towards neutral now.
Really, really hope Ukraine can hold the commies off.
