Criminal negligence and lack of seriousness from Putlet.

An entire oblast defended by a single battalion. Ukrainians assembled 7 brigades against it.

No mobilization done. Russian and allied contingent in Ukraine total a mere 160,000 whereas Ukraine despite the losses due to total mobilization has over 400,000 men.

Russians simply have too few troops to man the enormous frontlines.

Putlet meanwhile is watching the Vostock exercises where 50,000 Russian troops participated. These 50,000 troops could've been a god send in the real war instead of this play war.

Either Putlet is a senile boomer who's divorced from reality or there's some 4D chess. I lean towards the former.

These Sovietasaurus boomers stifle all light.

Russia is factually more similar to an elective monarchy than a parliamentary Republic. With that in mind you should note that a war event is incredibly risky for such type of a government, which is probably the most unstable. I am not sure that Putin could afford a full blown war.
