That would also have woken Western Europe from its stupor on military power like a slap in the face. A slow victory benefits the Russians more than a zerg rush would have.
Seriously! How much more Russian blood and treasure should Putin continue to waste?

I agree. NATO has had a lot of mobilized artillery, Bradleys, and Leopards destroyed by mines with very little progress. They’ve also expended much of their artillery supply.
