It’s pretty obvious what Putin is doing. He most definitely is not throwing his full military punch. Putin has shown what the military reality is and is going to use that at the negotiating table. This can be negotiated if the NATO crazy talk ends and the GD American Democrat Party stops destabilizing the area for power and profit. If the negotiations fail, you will then see the Russian Army unleashed.

Russian army unleashed? I wonder what their motivation would be? It's not like when Germany invaded and the whole country took up arms (like what's happening in the Ukraine right now) so I don't think Russian soldiers would be highly motivated; OTOH, the Ukrainians sure are.

In WW2 80% of Russian soldiers never returned home.
