I... are you accusing him of losing the war because he enjoys it?

He's losing it because his western sponsors won't let him negotiate a peace deal (that the majority OF HIS COUNTRY wants, regardless of what armchair chicken hawks think they should do). If he had tried at any point, he would have gotten deposed (or worse) like they deposed Yanukovich in 2014.
