You do not want Putin dead—unless you like the idea of a real fanatical Russian nationalist at the helm.
The successor may not give speeches announcing their attentions—they may just act—in a way no-one will want.
Spot on.
Any idea why he would be wearing a heavy winter parka in that room and a military parka at that, which he wouldn’t have come there with?
I limped for years….still do if I walk too far. Pinched sciatic.
Be careful what you wish for—who ever replaced Putin could well be much worse. End the Ukraine war with a few nukes—all cities gone in a flash. Risky, but will Europe risk Paris or Berlin to strike back? Would Biden risk New York or Boston? (well, maybe Mira-a-Lago or Houston) Turn Ukraine into a poisonous zone of death. There are crazies all over. The war needs to stop! The killing needs to stop before we devolve into WW III and a total reset of the political framework of the world.
Weather at wargames location in the mid 70’s. Weird to wear winter parka. Might be old footage. Particularly with Gerasimov being there.
It doesn’t matter what the weather was, if cold he would have brought his own jacket and why wear a heavy army parka in that office room?
That is a normal-looking room with technology and electricity, water glasses on the desks, and the president for life is visiting, how cold was it in there?
that’s a really good point
