According to Soviet military doctrine Putin can't fulfil the objectives he set for this war. Defeating an entrenched enemy requires 3-5x advantage in manpower and materiel and Russia staged less than what Ukraine currently has. The Ukrainian armed forces have retreated to the defendable cities and will counter attack and return occupied land after defeating the Russian attacks. On top of that the attacks are in 3 directions, depriving them from any local advantage. Chances are Ukraine will win this war, unless Russia stages half a million addional soldiers and the respective gear. I don't think the regime has the support to do something like that, and not for an agressive war against Ukraine. All while Ukraine increases its manpower quickly by calling reservists and volunteers who are already near the battle.
