Maybe it's 95% of the troops he massed at the border, not of all Russian troops. BUT, that does present Russia with a HUGE challenge of defending the rest of its territory from things such as what Japan is looking at.

If he was banking on the world being afraid to challenge him, the Ukraine performance makes that look a lot less daunting than it did 2 weeks ago.
