? I thought the point (at one time) was to destroy the Ukrainian army. Then the story was that the Russians would bombard Kiev until they quit (the Russians have pulled back out of normal artillery range of Kiev). And now they are headed to the Donets.
The stories change constantly.
Well, the real problem has been the attacks on Russians in Donetsk. The AZOV battalion has been doing this constantly. Central and West Ukraine isn’t a concern because most of there is Ukrainian. You notice Mariupol (which is the principle point of resistance for AZOV) is getting crushed right now.
But you’re right; we’re not going to know the point of this war until it’s over.
