10. Good. Let Russia split their forces. Ukraine is ready and so are their European allies. Russia will lose more.

Russia is already short on young workers and they're using old tanks and armored fighting vehicles in Ukraine. Their only tactic is to try and bomb Ukraine into submission and threaten their European allies. Finland, Sweden, Poland, England, France, and Germany combined have more economic and military power than Russia. Russia is simply calculating that they can drag out the war long enough because they have more people and old military equipment to throw at the meatgrinder while Ukraine is actually trying to survive and is using autonomous weapons systems to conserve on troop exposure. Russia's bombing of cities is a terror tactic to counter Ukraine's economy of force by creating losses elsewhere. Ukraine is countering by increasing destruction of Russian infrastructure to impede their logistics so that Russia's under-supplied and under-protected troops are easier to either capture or kill in large numbers while minimizing Ukrainian losses.
