So you have previously explained.
But your alternate version represents a very small minority view.
It does not explain the sacrifice made by those in the combat zones.
But instead Putin has chosen to drag the carnage out for years.
If that's the case then mass murder is a Putin priority higher than territorial conquest.
Putin is a monster, no doubt. But you present him as even worse than he seems to be.
Russian rate of losses in Ukraine almost triples in one year
Seems more like fantasy than reality.
Putin could end this in a week, but year after year refuses to do so?

For search syntax I entered:
Russia atrocity Ukraine *
The first page was full of different sources. The following is the link at the top of that list.
Russian authorities are desperate to evade justice for the crimes they’ve committed in Ukraine. We won’t let them.

Your continued portrayal of Russia as victim of Ukraine is so slim a minority view, I doubt it's common even in Russia.
And your portrayal of Putin as some sort of ethical champion is laughable.
Recently I encountered a report of Russia inducting mercenaries, often from impoverished nations in Africa.
And as is common with mercenaries, their employer is using them as fodder, marching them into the meat-grinder.
It's horrific. BUT !
Nice shade of lipstick you've slapped on it.
* Instead of continuing to sing the Putin melody, provide yourself some constructive insight. Try these two search syntaxes separately.
- Russia atrocity Ukraine
&
- Ukraine atrocity Russia
or whatever other syntax you think will reveal disclosures supporting your view.
