Oh man, love this idea. I'm gonna try it on my bank. "Here's the deal, I keep all the money that I've already stolen, and you have to agree not to call the cops or hire any additional security." Brilliant.

Not sure what the bank is supposed to get out of it though.

Plus they're asking for more money that they haven't stolen yet. Russia doesn't even control large parts of the territory it's decided to annex.

Maybe if you were producing three times more shells than the whole of NATO, you could pull that off.
