this is a temporary problem, you have to give up land and inflict as much damage to the enemy when they take said land, then later take it back when they are properly weakened, you do not put your best forces in the cauldron to blled the russians , you put your most expendable ones. which the Ukrs high command did. I think the Ukrs command is not perfect and yes they made mistkaes but then again this is war live and learn. this is not yet an end to the war and while a critical battle notice the Russians are advancing slow but getting a LOT of losses. the goal is to keep up , bleed the Russians bad. Yes the Russians can replace their losses, yes the Ukrs will lose a lot of men but at the end of the day in a strategic sense, this is making the Russians lose more hurts their economy more. The goal here is to collapse the Russian economy, yes it seems the Russian economy is taking it quite well, but this is for now, the longer the Russians are in the war and commiting their forces , the more they are expending a lot of money to fund the war, the more it hurts their economy which is currently under siege from bad sanctions from the west. and it will get worse for them, esp. in 2023, when I think a global recession will happen due to fed raising rates to tame infaltion, and oil prices will collapse this will really hurt their economy and when that happens , well they wont have the monies to finance the war. and that will have a strong direct effect on Russian forces on the ground in Ukraine. and if you look back in history, that was how the USSR collapsed that was how the Russians lost Afghanistan(as the USSR) and the 1st Chechen war. Russia is a net oil and gas exporter and is dependent on high energy prices for a good economy , Russian economy is not diversified. So when oil prices are high , well notice the Russians go to war with Georgia, syria and now Ukraine, when its low, they dont do anything.
