1.Kyiv attack was a failure that held up the russ while western aid arrived for Ukraine - Sun Tszu teaches a good war is a quick war - ridiculous to stretch it out - thge russ were beaten at Kyiv.....what you suggest makes zero sense strategically !
2. Proof of the above - the russ littered the place with tanks and vehicles that had run out of petrol - which became gifts for the UAF 100's of russian tanks - can dig up details for you if you need it
3. furhter proof , the heavy losses in tanks destroyed by javelins and men killed russia took in the battle
4. the advances in tthe east came immediately AFTER ther battle for Kyiv not during
posting nonsense excuse for rusisan failures may serve to impress the ignorant but no-one else ! taking 10% of Ukraine against a very much less weaponsied nation in 2 years puts the lie to russia being number two military in the world
