"Vladimir Putin is the only leader to annex territory while his troops are retreating."
Supposedly the Russian troops in Lyman want to withdraw, because they're surrounded, but the word from the top is "Nyet." There's 5000 of them.

There'll be less. Give it time.

Might be 5,000 new Ukrainian soldiers soon.

Putin’s fantasy doesn’t fit the reality:
-
That’s the danger when your army can’t fulfill your ideological goals. First rule of being a dictator. Only threaten what you can achieve.

Russian troops have withdrawn from the town of Lyman in eastern Ukraine to avoid being surrounded by Ukraine’s army, the Russian Ministry of Defense said Saturday.
“In connection with the creation of a threat of encirclement, allied troops were withdrawn from the settlement of Krasny Liman to more advantageous lines,” the defense ministry said on social media platform Telegram.
The Russian name for the town of Lyman is Krasny Liman.
Russia state media reported that the reason for the withdrawal was due to Western-made artillery and intelligence..
