The Russians have clearly shown they are in no position to try such a silly initiative. There is no empire to be had. Theyve been stalemated for 3 years almost, for a few slivers of Ukraine.

You are correct but the neocons here and everywhere need their boogieman and Russia is it. It is they who parked it right on the border of Russia and kept moving NATO eastward.
They leave out the fact that it is they who are trying to takeover everyone else to install a communist world order.

The Russians have clearly shown they are in no position to try such a silly initiative.two points:
- Until the Russians were defeated at the battle of Hostomel airport, it looked very clear to everyone (including me) that they were in a position to win and do that (assimilating Ukraine into Muscowy) - they already did that in Georgia in 2008 and partially in Ukraine in 2014 and had semi-absorbed Bialorus already. it looked very doable. But the battle of hostomel changed those calculations for outsiders
- However, internally the Muscowites haven't realized it yet. They will still throw bodies into the fire without seeing the damage they are doing to themselves
It's like a punch-drunk strongman trying to attack a crowd. he's not going to win, but he's going to cause a lot of harm before he goes down himself.
