There is still the possibility that Russia will allow some chunks of Ukraine to be eaten by the Romanians, Hungarians and Polish with some agreement that Odessa and Transnistria will not be occupied.
Such a move may be an intelligent one for the Russians as it would remove any pretence of the West being an "ally" of Ukraine and possibly deliver the Nazi hell hole in the north west to Polish management.
Russia will take everything east of the Dniepr, plus Kiev and Odessa and everything between the Dniepr and Transnistria to gain a full victory and deliver actual security to Russia.
