It indicates he has no intention of starting a war.
If he wants other parts of Ukraine, he can get them through subterfuge and subversion. And he can buy what he wants.
A war is pointless for Russia at this point since the necessary element of surprise has all but evaporated. People underestimate Putin.
He knows his limits contrary to what the chattering classes have presumed. There is the old adage you should never bite off more than you can chew.

“And he can buy what he wants.”
There’s a lot more going on than people are aware of.
Wealthy Jewish businessmen from Israel, Europe and Russia have been negotiating and working together since 2010 to build natural gas pipelines and develop natural gas fields to deliver energy to Europe. It’s an impressive balancing act that aids everyone. I hope nothing topples this apple cart.
Getting the Leviathan gas field online made Israel energy independent with plenty left over to export to Europe. It’s a great story about private capital getting the job done without government interference.
Excellent summary.

He doesn’t want te Ukraine with its debts and Soros/Obozo puppets in charge.
He will let the Euro Soros Thugs, “Greece”, mug and pillage the Ukrainians for a few years. Then, the survivors will beg to come back into Mother Russia’s flock.
