Russia has thousands of men willing to fight in horrendous conditions.
They’ve got hundreds of thousands of conscripts who are largely dug in along an enormous front, along the four eastern most seized Oblasts in Ukraine.

Particularly not when they have poor control over their own borders and a nasty instance of counter-insurgence popping up in and around their major cities.
