Denazification still makes sense. My wife's family, as well as some of my customers are from that area. Ukraine has had a Nazi problem since the OG Nazis were there - straight through. These are not neo-Nazis. These guys have been Nazis since the 30s.

I'm not so sure we will crush Russia. If push comes to shove, BRICS may stand with Russia rather than with us. China has been explicit about this, particularly at the beginning of the war. They see directly that the goal of the US is to crush each of the BRICS one by one. If they stand together, they are a match for the west.

I may not be a fan of either India or China (or Russia for that matter), but they are not stupid. This is all about econmic power.
