It helps to watch clips like this to find out what the Russians are actually saying about the situation in Ukraine. The MSM has a history of straight up lying, or grossly misleading the public. The Russians are sticking to their demands, Donbas territorial gains, including Crimea, but also neutrality from Ukraine, and demilitarisation. Because the last two things are unlikely the war will keep going until the Ukrainian side collapses/surrenders.
