Don't be obtuse. ...This sets a new standard for stupidity. When the Russians entered Ukraine they were already in Donbas, so why would they leave Donbas and divide their forces into three prongs to enter the Kyiv area from three directions only to return to Donbas?
I never said the Russian army left the Donbas.
They only sent a small number of troops to the outskirts of Kiev as a feign so the Ukraine commanders would transfer a lot of their soldiers from the Donbas to protect the capital city of Kiev.
Which left less Ukrainian forces to defend the Donbas area.
The Russian strategy worked exactly as they planned.
Because now the Russian army occupies and controls almost the entire Donbas region and is still steadily advancing westward. ...
