So if that was Putin's only goal why didn't negotiations begin before aggression? Everything is so bullshit.
Well, then

That's more or less the mantra for the '20's, I do believe - at least so far...

I'm sure that Hitler's "goals" in 1944 would have been considerably less than they were three years earlier. The Russians badly misjudged Ukrainean resistance and the competence of their own army. Their main "goal" right now is to get their forces around Kyiv out of harm's way before they get totally chopped up.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
