Mark my words, you heard it here first, folks: As soon as Putin dies or is otherwise removed from power, all of the Western corporations will be right back in Russia doing business as usual, and Europe will turn on the Natural Gas Pipelines from Mother Russia once again.

Doesn’t that depend on who succeeds Pootie? He just one hardliner in a collection of hardliners - all of whom want to restore the old Russian Empire (not Soviet Union). All the moderates are gone. Restoration means taking the Baltic States and Poland.
The next Russian presidential election is in March of 2024, so that’s less than two years away. Putin said he is not running. Probably because his health is going downhill, he doesn’t look well.
When Putin dies or is removed, you will likely get a stone-hearted leader who makes you wish for the warm days of Putin who could be reasoned with.
It will be some guy who is fully and correctly sure that the west is hostile unless they can control Russian resources and money.
It probably won’t be another Russian WEF kid with Ivy or London connections.
