Didn't this just happen in 2014 when they had and chased out the last regime? Ukraine remained, just under a new anti-Russian regime.

They chased out the regime not the people. It's clear now that regime change won't work now that there's a resistance. 2014 was like a vaccine; the invasion didn't go far enough and built up an immune response which solidified their identity as a nation.
