Really? Putin seems to slowly change his mind, even as far as the aims of his "special military operation" are concerned. It looks like he is slowly realizing what he got himself into and his aim is to keep Ukraine unstable to prevent its association with the EU.

There have been some incidents on the Polish border recently that put the whole thing on a knife edge.

Business as usual. Lukashenko is bringing immigrants to the border with Poland and giving them tools to illegally cross the border, even though these poor people could do it legally a few dozens of kilometers away using a normal border crossing and asking for asylum etc. Poland accepted millions of refugees from Ukraine and a few hundred thousand from Asia and Africa.

So Putin's plan is just to create problems and confusion using Lukashenko as a proxy. These immigrants have been there for more than a year and he is still bringing new ones.
