I should be surprised, but I am not. This is how Russia has behaved for 80 years.

Couple weeks and Orban will be out.

Putin fumbled before in Moldova and he can do the same here. Pedo Shitler will only compound the failure.

Russian Options for the Donbas
Accelerated Creeping Offensive:

Push everything remaining into an attack to take the final 15% of Donetsk.
Timeframe: Estimated at 5 years
Cost: Extremely high losses in both personnel and equipment
Example: The video highlights a failed large-scale Russian attack on March 19th near Lyman/Severodonetsk, where Ukrainian forces decimated a large armored convoy before it reached the line of contact
Switch to Defense

Dig in and attempt to wear down Ukraine through attrition.
Risks: This is also unsustainable due to Ukrainian strikes on the Russian rear, which are cutting off logistics and supply lines
Method: Ukrainian forces are using precision strikes and small-unit raids to hunt down Russian soldiers
Use of Weapons of Mass Destruction

The milblogger suggests using nuclear weapons or other WMDs as a variant of the first two options.
Context: This option highlights the desperation in Russian military circles, as they fear Ukraine might obtain similar capabilities first
