I suspect that the Ukra-Nazis are used to having problems pulling out.
The fact that they’re still there while every front is collapsing and they’re losing their best is beyond me.
Their main advantage was and is propaganda victory pieces for internal and western consumption, as long as that can be maintained it is the priority.
