Does Ukraine need to give up some land (Crimea) at the end? Or is there something else for Putin to save face like what (?) they did with Wagner?

Exactly, Ukraine has said they will fight until every invader has been pushed out of Ukraine. That’s the peace deal: the lethal aid will continue until Russia is out of all of Ukraine, including Crimea. At that point we can start talking reparations to Ukraine.
Let’s say Ukraine pushes Russia out of all Ukraine including Crimea without any peace talks.Then Russia kept bombing Ukraine from Russia. What would be Ukraine next move. Would they be able to join NATO?
If Russia refuses to end the war, despite being pushed completely out of Ukraine, that would:
be incredibly stupid on Russia’s part
force Ukraine to put Russia in a situation where they would accept the peace terms. What that looks like specifically is hard to tell at this stage, but it would involve destroying Russia’s ability to wage war via the destruction of their manufacturing and logistics hubs in Russia as well as destroying any units in range of flinging explosive into Ukraine.
