I understand their motivation for 2014 invasion of Crimea. It went so well that they thought they could do it again and the world would ignore it. I don't understand why Russia continues now that it is clear that they're going to lose and they've become a global pariah. Russia is well on its way to being a vassal state to China.

imagine trying to tell putin 2 years ago that in 2023 he'd be pulling his ships back from Crimea and putting out the red carpet for North Korea to beg for military equipment assistance.
