Right, but if the Germans are being invited to cross their territory and into Ukraine, it’s reasonable for the Germans to want that request in writing.

"Hey the last time we did that, you all turned Dresden into a pyre; I want an invitation and the party menu listed in detail before a single Panzer crosses the Oder-Nesse."

There's not enough Prussians left in Germany for a single kampfgruppe to move ost of Kurstin.

Russia has no shortage of people, it does have a shortage of trained, experienced people

And eventually, a shortage of people able to make people. Russia's birth rate is the lowest its been since 2000 and a lot of that is due to seeing most Russian men in their reproductive prime being converted to corpses at an expedient rate.
