Putin and Russia are in a jam. The Russian people may revolt due to Putin having war with Ukraine and killing millions of his soldiers without land concessions. Russia is financially in trouble if Putin loses oil sales and the Russian people are aware of poor financial planning by Putin. Ukraine will not make land concessions and that may kill the deal next week. Putin brought this confrontation for nothing and has killed many of his important military advisers who have disagreed with him to save face. All bad judgement by Putin and the people know it.
You apparently listen to the same Gaslight Media that brought us Russiagate and the coup against Trump.
