Thing is that Russia doesn't want to be seen as being flaky. If they start doing shit like that then it will make it impossible for anyone to trust them going forward. And ultimately they don't need to play games. They're winning the war, and there's nothing the west can do to stop that. I think Russia wants this conflict to end definitively on their terms so that it's crystal clear to everyone that Russia will not be bullied by the west going forward.
