< This move looks bad.>

The Russian army has been retreating, ever since the failed attack on Kiev. Their decision to withdraw to a easily-defensible river line, means they don’t think they have the capability of offensive action. They are on the defensive, and will remain so. Their war goals have been reduced, bit by bit, with each defeat.

When the war started, Putin’s goals were grandiose and unattainable. Today, Zelensky’s goals (Crimea reconquest, vast reparations, Putin’s removal) are grandiose and unattainable. So the war will continue. Oil prices will remain high; China gains more influence over Russia, the EU has a deep recession, and perhaps other unfortunate events.
