Russia doesn't have the resources for it. Their soldiers in Ukraine have resorted to dressing as civilians to scrounge up food and trying to steal fuel for their tank from Ukrainian gas stations.
Their soldiers aren't even properly trained, experienced soldiers: they're just 18-19-year-old conscripts fresh out of basic training. There are videos of Russian soldiers breaking down and crying in the middle of the street when Ukrainians make it clear they're not wanted here. There are reports that Russia had to resort to beatings and even deception to even get them to go to Ukraine; supposedly a few of them were put on a plane and told they were going to a training field for mock battle.
I don't expect Russia to be able to be able to sustain a war on a second front against countries with even larger militaries and economies.

Hahaha this is the most out of touch thing I read since the start of the war.
