why is putin not the slightest bit interested in negotiations ?
He made it clear himself ....."Peace will come when we have acheived our objectives"
Stated objectives are those four oblasts + demilitarisation of Ukraine + removal of the elected government of Ukraine (I'll skip the nazi BS)
But I think as well as this it's clear he also wants :
1. to prove russia can succeed in Ukraine
2. Odesa
Preasently he's encouraged by the ground being taken by russia and proabably , like most pro russ here , ignores the aid that will start to feed through and expect the trend to continue indefinitely .
