I don't think they could handle another front.
They can't even handle one.
For real - the Russian Army proved themselves to be the third best army in Ukraine, and then the second best army in Ukraine got pissed off, decided to march on Moscow, and got within 100km of the Kremlin

This says that they got as far as Yelets. That's 392 km from the Kremlin, according to Google Maps.

Yeah, they gotta be running pretty low on farm boys at this point. Putins gonna wipe out an entire generation of men if he keeps this up. Not good for the long term health of a nation. But I doubt he ever thinks past next month.
