Now you’re being irrational. This has nothing to do with Putin or how nice he is. Troop numbers are announced by the Kremlin and closely monitored by NATO. They have in no way disagreed about the numbers deployed.
Russia and NATO and Western media largely agree on the number of Russkie troops deployed. If you disagree with those multiple disparate sources, don’t know what to tell ya.

Use your head, or whatever you have for a brain.
No country ever divulges the number of troops deployed to war, and no country is ever truthful about casualties on the field of battle. Numbers come out after the war or after some battles. NATO, for example, is not going to tell the Russians or anybody about how many NATO troops or special forces are aiding Ukraine.
In the case of the Russians, the number killed and injured, can be verified by those doing the fighting, namely the Ukrainians and the U.S. intelligence agencies. The Russians have the media reporting their numbers, but, who the heck believes the Russian media or the Russian military or Putin? Only fools believe anything coming out of Russia. Which them makes you a fool. BTW, that American reported in Russian prison was spying for the U.S., according to the Russians. Do you believe them?
