Russia went into Ukraine with somewhere around 120,000 men. Even our own "analysts" quoted that figure as the number of "Russian troops massed on the border"

Ukraine has 200,000 in it's military and 250,000 reservists which were all called up. That means the Ukraine military outnumbered the Russians almost 4 to 1. Russia, of course, is depending on its superior firepower to make up the difference.

Russia can not commit much more than that due to the fact they are needed to defend their own borders against a possible NATO incursion. The entire Russian military only has approx. one million men and reservists.

From the outset, Putin and the Russian military claimed the objectives were to defend the breakaway republics and to eventually root out and de-nazify the Ukrainian military. Russian military analysts stated this would mean eventually surrounding the major cities of Kyiv, Kharkov, and Odessa and using precision strikes against places like Lvov until the Ukies surrendered to a war of attrition.

Right now, that is exactly what they have done.

Western propaganda has been exactly that. Get some sources from the other side to try to figure out the truth. Our people lie as much if not more than the Russians do.
