Vladimir Putin is 'fighting for his life' and fears he could be killed if Russia suffers further heavy setbacks after the liberation of Kherson, a senior Ukrainian intelligence figure has claimed.
Oleksiy Arestovich, an adviser to Volodymyr Zelensky's chief of staff, said the shock capture of the Russian-held territory has dramatically raised fears in the Kremlin that Ukraine will win the war.
He said, according to The Times: '[Putin] is very afraid because there is no forgiveness in Russia for tsars who lose wars.
'He is fighting for his life now. If he loses the war, at least in the minds of the Russians, it means the end. The end of him as a political figure. And possibly in the physical sense.'

Klaus and his co council XI need Russia neutered!
Hmmm. A well placed bullet compared to feet first into a tree shredder?
Putin is not even close to being a Tzar.
Remind me why its a good idea to disarm Putin to the point where nukes are his only resort?
Sic semper tyrannis
It would be actually newsworthy if Putin himself had said these words.
But coming from the mouth of Zelensky’s senior adviser, it means jack all. Nothing but a waste of bandwidth.
The planet is SICK of war.
Meglomaniac psychos who have absolutely NO thought of an afterlife.
The amount of pure Satanic evil at the top is mind-boggling.
WWI and Czar Nicholas...
Khrushchev and Cuban Missile Crisis...
Afghanistan and Mikhail Gorbachev...
Putin and Ukraine?
Maybe a nice vacation in Yekaterinburg will resolve some things.
> Well, HE started the war. <
That’s the bottom line. Folks can talk about Ukrainian corruption, NATO provocations, etc. There is some validity in all that. But it was Putin who sent tanks across a sovereign border. Everything else is secondary at best.
One - Russian elite is billionaires and 9-figure millionaires. They don’t want themselves and their whole families to die. They have pretty nice lives.
Two - If you give in to nuclear blackmail then taken to its logical conclusion it will never end. You have to make sure Russians win at everything they attempt because otherwise “NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION!”
[[Is “KILLED” different than “killed”?]]
Of course, it is “MUCH MORE KILLED” than simply killed.
If Russia stops fighting, the war ends. If Ukraine stops fighting, Ukraine ends.
[...Putin who sent tanks across a sovereign border.]
Twice. He got away with it in Georgia.
Like mostly dead and all dead from The Princess Bride?
Technically, the war is only in Ukraine, not Russia, so he’d be fine.
Just put him in a Gulag prison for the rest of his life,with no winter clothing and the bare necessities for food.
Or, just send him to a Ukraine prison and let’s see how long he lasts there.
Or give him a gun and send him to the front-lines to fight in Ukraine. It’s only fair, since he sent hundreds of thousands of his troops to die there.
Hopefully there are people and buffers in place.
Desperate men do desperate things.
Gee, then maybe he shouldn’t have invaded them.
How’s Libya doing?
So?
