        Not necessarily take, but a demilitarized zone might make sense, and that has to be put somewhere.

        Like prevent troops amassing in “peaceful exercise” so they cannot surprise invade again.

        Zelensky already said that Ukraine is willing to exchange Belgorod for NATO membership.

        Presumably parts of Russia is of strategic importance, being where they come.
        Not all battles are about taking land.

          Sure, but implying Ukraine would want to attack its neighbouring country, to take land for any reasons seems strange. That’s more like what Russia would do.
