Putin is using a fraction of his resources. If he really wanted to, the entirety of Ukraine would have been under his command in March of last year

"oh, we could have ended it last year, but instead deliberately choose to drag it out and incur more losses of troops, equipment, and money"

Contrary to corporate Western media lies and propaganda, Putin never wanted Ukraine or to destroy the country. He had specific objectives outlined and most of those objectives have been met. Putin took great care in minimizing civilian casualties and Ukrainian POWs were treated like royalty unlike Russian soldiers who were captured and subjected to torture and executions.
