This probably can’t be answered properly but if Putin died tonight (god I hope he does) would this carry on? Would his cheerleaders and right hand men keep this going or is it really just down to him?
I'm purely guessing but I think he has a small percentage of devotees and the rest hate him or fear him.
 
  1. Zelensky - Ukraine ready to discuss ceasefire​

    A spokesman for Ukrainian President Zelensky has just said the country is prepared to hold ceasefire and peace talks with Russia immediately.
    He said Russian and Ukrainian officials are currently discussing a time and place for talks to be held.
 
Imagine just living a normal life then being given an ak47 and instructions on how to make petrol bombs, with the expectation of killing people.

f***ing mental this like.

One of Putin's big theories is that Slavs (Russians, Ukrainians et al) are not mere mortals. They share a particular alpha male mentality. Big drinkers, big fighters. He believes the namby-pamby West is in fatal decline and that the rest of the century will belong to the Slavs and the Chinese.

He's way off the mark in a lot his conclusions, but never underestimate the willingness of a Slav to fight to the death. Looks like Putin has underestimated it.

Why would Russia or more importantly Putin agree to this?
