Russian heirachy get drunk in social gatherings say stupid things to please Putin was the reason for this war. Over few Vodka's, spy chiefs Narurushkin and Botnikov casually told Putin that Kiev could be run over in three days by their mighty army. His condition already worsoned by covid, psychopath Putin asked the question in a strategic meeting and the ministers had to agree as the autocrat would not take NO for an answer.
Similar would have happened in the US if Dr.Fauci did not hold ground. America would be drinking disinfectants to cure covid.
