This is very complicated and very, very scary. What will it take for the Russian on the street to see where Putin is leading them? Will it take another world war? Will it take a Regime Change in the Kremlin?
Unless something unforeseen happens, this war is going to drag on into 2023. But instead of reinvigorating Mother Russia, as many of the 83% suppose...the war may bring Russia to it's knees and see a monumental shift in support for the totalitarian, Putin.
Putin will never stand on the stage with the leaders of developed countries again, as he would be risking arrest for war crimes, of which evidence is now being compiled.
