    Wasn’t Russia expecting Ukraine to capitulate (basically, like what Armenia did against Azerbaijan)?

    They only sent, what, 80000 troops on the initial drive to Kyiv?

      If Ukraine wanted to join Russia, they wouldn’t need to send any troops.

      So that is about 79999 troops too many.
