The real target for Russia is the east and south where there is some support there. The troops that went to Kyiv and sat there were to distract Ukraine’s military

No, I’m pretty sure he, like everyone in the west, thought he could take Kyiv in a week, topple the government, and force an early surrender. 


Putin thought he could take 500k Ukrainian soldiers and reserves with a force of 200k while not destroying vital infrastructure all within a week? I'm not buying it.
