An ailing Vladimir Putin is flailing over his war strategy, torn between using nuclear weapons and accepting defeat and handing back Ukrainian regions invaded by his forces, a Telegram channel claims.
Amid fresh concerns over his health, his security officials have bluntly told the warmonger president that he has run out of 'good' options.
This comes as the death toll in the Russian armed forces plus separatist fighters and pro-Putin private armies has reached almost 65,000, said General SVR Telegram channel, an opposition source offering 'insider' information which the Kremlin is 'seeking to shut down'.
There is 'despondency' among Putin’s senior entourage that he had privately raised the 'extreme' option with 'top aides” of a 'goodwill' to cede newly invaded territories to Ukraine.
At the same time, there is a warning from his defence chiefs that a Ukrainian military counter strike is likely to be 'effective'.
Such an outcome would threaten his presidency, being seen as a humbling, crushing defeat.
But Putin’s leading officials are also said to be braced for a 'sharp deterioration' in his medical condition.
'With a high degree of probability, we can say that soon the president will not be able to personally hold meetings and participate in large events,' said the channel, which has long asserted the he suffers from cancer and other serious medical problems.
Putin’s absence will be explained as due to a return of the Covid pandemic, it was alleged.
In recent meetings with his security and defence aides, claimed General SVR, 'various options were discussed, from the possibility of mobilising and using tactical nuclear weapons, to opening a second front in a third country, and, finally, to "gestures of good will" with the return of the occupied territories of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia and Kharkiv regions to Ukraine.'

A FReeper who Supports [Z]elensky and believes the propaganda put out by Ukraine and the Homoglobalists.
The Goodwill variant is still not acceptable to Ukraine!
Zelensky want to restore Ukrainian borders to pre 2014, including Crimea and Donbas. Plus he wants some major monetary war reparations from Russia to repair the damaged country!.
HA!
Stupid assed neocons do not realize, or fail to accept that this is a Russian State action.
Their emotions control their view. And their emotions are all intertwined with Putin.
Whomever the CinC is, the operation would and will go forward.
Patrushev will end the war before he takes office in March.
Your ignorance is showing.
The humiliations of Russia’s military have largely overshadowed the failures of the FSB and other intelligence agencies.
Humiliations? What? You mean that taking Mariupol and capturing 2500 members of the Nazi fanatics knows as the AZOV battalion was really a humiliation? Are the Russians humiliated by their successful support of the Luhansk and Donetsk militias to push Ukrainian forces from the Donbas while killing an estimated 200,000 Ukrainian troops in less than six months? Sounds shameful to me. Perhaps Russia is humiliated by its failure to run out of precision guided missiles despite repeated predictions from western intelligence services that Russia was on the ropes.
How are Putin’s Sept 11 referendums coming along? In three weeks, right?
How are your Sept 11th referendums coming along? Putin won’t cancel them because he’s winning, right?
Does that mean a Freeper that supports Putin is a PEEPER????
I think that would be a Freeper that thinks Putin is the second coming of Donald Trump and not the ruthless dictator of a third world county (1/4 of the population still craps in an outhouse) with 10,000 Nukes.
I think that would be a PEEPER...
Now that’s just plain funny
Go ahead Vlad...nuke’em.
Die Putin die! Your time is up, loser!
