I don't see this as a change from what he's been saying all along. He undoubtedly means Russia to keep the territories it has seized.

Lukashenko's economy is hurting from the sanctions, he has billions in debt he does not pay the foreign debt any more it is more he is in danger of collapse. That is why he tries this to save his own neck, but the Kremlin is not willing. "In case the necessary conditions are created, we maintain readiness for political discussions on realistic principles – both for post-conflict resolution of the Ukrainian crisis and for the parameters of further coexistence with the West as a whole," stated Shoygu. However, the Russian Defence Minister emphasized that Western countries must halt their pursuit of a strategic defeat of Russia for negotiations to take place. But the conditions for talks have not yet been established.
Zelenskyy has a very reasonable peace plan, not seen anyone from the Kremlin wanting to talk about this. |

Russia has no peace plan. They want some time tio consoldiate their disarrays, and then continue to destroy Ukraine. If you look at it, it is an established tool of Russian foreign policy to arrange a conflict somewhere and then keeping it simmering on and on and on, benefitting from that. Putin needs a continuation of the war, a peace now is the last thing that is in his survival interest.
------------------- Ukraine wants to stop transmitting Russian gas to Europe from 2025 onwards. Ooopsiepoopsie - some European states that are still on the drip will have something to complain about.

Russians are not really afraid of death, and Russian roulette, in fact, could be invented only in Russia. Russians don't really appreciate life, neither their own nor others'. I don't remember exactly who - probably it was Solzhenitsyn - described a case in Russia where a prisoner put a grenade in another prisoner's pocket for fun and was amused that the man was blown to pieces. He did this not out of malice, but because life in Russia is a permanent ordeal from which there is no other way out but death. That is so, even if the Russians themselves do not always understand it. And then there was the Ukrainian Donbass, where the Russians again allowed themselves everything. After that, they looked forward to new wars. "We are like surgeons who advance into the war-torn areas. We are like doctors who cross the divine borders to free the patient from his pathologies. Yes, we wade through pain and sorrow, through blood and hunger, but we bring life," writes a Russian war correspondent about Ukraine.

Putin had somewhat control the first 1-2 days in the Ukrainian war. Thereafter he have lost the control.

That rear admiral says that Putin only is the public figurehead that a group is in control, not Putin any more not that this matter will not be better but with several people wanting to control power there is always a change someone or a faction starts to grab all the power.
