That commentators like me have always had is that were not inside putins mind and we dont really know what his end state that hes aiming for actually is. i suspect that the consensus is that hes now going to concentrate and trying to annex the donbas area and then, if he feels that he has sufficient combat power and political will, he might try and head towards moldova, to, you know, sort of quote liberate transnistria. i dont think they have the combat power or the resources to do both of those...

Realistic prospect of the ukrainians agreeing to something -- you know, something like that, north/south korea kind of analog. now, i guess you could have an armistice, which is still the case in korea. the war there has never ended, even though the hostilities stopped in july of 1953, but its still an armistice or a ceasefire. maybe thats a possibility where they dont acknowledge the de facto situation. >> i think thats exactly right. i mean, when we look at the negotiated solution options here...

Have victory as an end state. >> and that was mark hertling. lets bring in atika shubert. she is following this story. she is in valencia, spain. so, atika, i spoke with a member of parliament, ukrainian member of parliament, who believes this change sort of strategic goal nuan announced by the russians isnt about finding a way out of the conflict but its about slowing it down so that they can continue their kind of relentless at a slower pace encirclement of cities and occupation of as much ter...
