OneWorld is publishing the full-length English version of the interview that Andrew Korybko gave to Oxu.Az’s Sayad Hasanli about the Ukrainian Conflict, which was subsequently shortened and then released under the title “Rusiya-Ukrayna müharibəsinin görünməyən tərəfləri - Amerikalı ekspertin Oxu.Az-a MÜSAHİBƏSİ”.
Another explaination of Russia's slow progress comes from U.S. Army War College, Ft. Leavenworth.
An 80 page booklet co-authored by Les Grau opines that Obama's operations in Libya convinced Putin to make a stand in Syria in which Russian forces refrained from "shock and awe" and went stright to "cordon and search" via classic pocket battles, the idea being to wipe out insurgents on the battlefield as enemy combatants rather than try to govern a warzone and condcut miliary operations as some sort of peace time law enforcement.
This is exactly what Putin would do in Ukraine, given Biden et al openly telling the world that they want to turn Urkaine into another Afghanisnt on the silly presumption that they won that proxy war.
Regardless, there won't be any Ukrainian partisans when Putin is done, They'll have been killed in battle or captured wihtout any of complex rules of engagement everyone sperges about during pacifications.
It's briliant and doesn't really take any longer to reach gola of a pacified, stable sate free of insurgents.
The Russians learned from Afghanistan that simply over running a capital and a few cities doesn't really mean much anymore as it may have in Cold War Eastern Europe, and even that's equivocal.
