Why doesn't Russia just destroy Ukraine?

What is their goal? I am unsure the complexity of this. They have an overwhelming army. If they want Ukraine why don't they just take it?

For Russia, it's a war of attrition. It's more about destroying the Ukrainian military and it's ability to be a problem in the future than it is about quickly seizing territory.

There are other reasons, but a quick victory mentality has never been their style.

They want to go out on their own terms. Russia only has a few decades left as a country, they either get destroyed by NATO or they die slowly from an aging population and low birth rates. They prefer the latter.

Because their army isn’t all that you seem to think it is. And why do you want them to anyways??

Why destroy? They’re reclaiming territory. They don’t want to destroy infrastructure to have to rebuild it.

They are trying to absorb their territory and people as their own. They can’t destroy it. Defeats the purpose.

If Russia wanted Ukraine destroyed, it would have been leveled last February/ March.

I honestly believe they are in on it. We are funding them as well. Its all one big bank job and the bank is the American Taxpayer.

They dont want to cause infrastructure catastrophe and want to minimize loss of civilians

They will. The Ruskies are amassing their forces and preparing to strike one crushing decisive blow. A lot of innocent men, women, and children will die, and THAT is sad.

Russia fight what for to reborn great glorious fatherland what is USSR.

Trump - Nyet

Biden - Da

Russia is getting a percentage of the money going to Ukraine.

Their goal at the outset was a quick strike at Kiev timed with attacks in Kharkiv, the East and South over to Kherson. They thought they’d defeat Ukraine in short order.

quote:

They have an overwhelming army


They seriously underperformed. Their army did not route the Ukes as expected, nor did they dominate the sit as expected.

. If they want Ukraine why don't they just take it?

Without using nukes, they couldn’t do it, it’d been 11 months and after their initial games they lost ground beginning in the Summer.

The question is what’s next. There’s talk of a big Russian O soon. Let’s see.

not from the lying pieces of propagandist shite from whom you get news updates

like Reuters

441 people in a country of 60 million is minimal

Also the Russian troops apparently need to be reigned in even at that low number

The total of Russian civilians killed by Ukrainians is noticeably absent from your Reuters report

That’s why their cruise missiles and drones are targeting the electrical grid and hitting apartments???
