Зстарата поговорка на немския генерал и военен теоретик Карл фон Клаузевиц, че войната е политика с други средства, често е вярна, обикновено когато политиците и генералите, ръководещи войната, разбират това. В противен случай безразсъдната война се превръща в много лоша политика. Руският президент Владимир Путин винаги е бил предпазливо политическо животно и той проведе „специалната военна операция“ (SMO) или войната НАТО-Русия-Украина в съответствие с традиционно балансирания си подход към политиката ( https://gordonhahn.com / 2017/06/14/putin-the-balancer-containing-and-balancing-russias-multifarious-forces-through-soft-authoritarianism/ ).
Ето защо Путин не нахлу в Украйна със смазваща сила на 24 февруари 2022 г., например с половин милион войници, които можеше да разположи. Той изпрати не повече от 200 000 войници по протежение на широк фронт от 1500 километра, простиращ се от Херсон на юг близо до Крим до югоизточната, източната, североизточната и северната граница с Русия……… https://www.frontnieuws.com/in-poetins-rusland-is-politiek-oorlog-met-andere-middelen-en-oorlog-revolutioneert-russische-militaire-zaken/?utm_id=560469
