No contradiction, if you switch your logic on.

"...so when you say gaining ground is brining them closer to their objective, what do you mean?..."
I mean that there's an objective and gaining more ground helps the Russian government achieve that objective.

Capturing territory is not an objective in itself. It's a tool to achieve the objective.

Now your additional bold text just adds more confusion to your already glaring contradiction.

So, let's say Putin has managed to conquer 18% of Ukraine, at what point will he, as you say, "militarily conquer" Ukraine?

What is the definition of "military conquering" another country? I am curious to learn what you mean here.

And lastly, how does "military conquering" Ukraine becomes closer by Putin taking more Ukrainian land?

In your own words will be fine. Thanks!
