Russia took less than 1% of Ukraine since Nov 2023. Only cost them at least half a million soldiers.

Russia escalates warning as Trump considers sale of Tomahawks to Ukraine

Somehow, but mistakenly, they thought that the US would still be a reliable supplier of arms. They would have done better fighting back. Everyone - russia, China the US - can see the EU will always back off. So they will keep pushing and keep getting.
