@kelvinbritz9051 Russia is 11% of the worlds land mass. Putin COULD send all of his forces to Ukraine, the supply clerks, garrison troops, border troops, sailors, and depot mechanics, but he'd not have a noticeably more powerful force and the power vacuum would allow a half dozen republics to suddenly feel like becoming independent. He is using what he has, just committed his ground reserves, is hiring mercenaries, and seeking aid from China. These are not the actions of an army with oodles of force to spare. The Russian invasion is stretched too thin on three Ukranian fronts. He might have done better to have skipped Kyiv and just taken the coastline. It is too late to disengage from any of those fronts to conduct a major offensive as they would have to withdraw into Russian territory ( or Belarus ) load onto trains and move openly to the chosen front. Ukraine has the advantage of interior lines of communication, so they can shift more forces faster to meet them.
Russia did not just "run out of supplies", They took the undefended borders and when they hit the main line of defense, they stopped dead. A failed breakthrough wastes a LOT of men and material. What Russia has in abundance is artillery shells and missiles. You can expect to see a LOT of bombardments of cities, because his unmotivated army cannot progress. Artillery gunners just fire at coordinates from positions of relative safety. It's going to be very ugly. Putin is already sacking generals left and right to head off a coup. Russia is weaker today than it was last month and will weaken more with each passing week. It will soon be a third world country hiding behind their nukes. Putin's paranoia has done more damage to Russia than anything he feared from the timid West.
