Looking at the fact that Ukraine has more than 250.000 Soldiers and that the Russian forces which would invade are (all included) ~120.000 troops and would have to move into foreign territory and ensure logistics and supplies (which ususally requires quite a sizeable proportion of the troops) this would be genuinely disappointing.
Bombing Kiev is one thing but permanently seizing is a whole different beast.
