This is UNCONFIRMED.…
And maybe just a Ukrainian disinformation effort…
But?..
From Fortune….
A coup is underway to oust Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is “very sick” due to cancer, according to Ukraine’s head of military intelligence.
“It will eventually lead to the change of leadership of the Russian Federation. This process has already been launched and they are moving into that way,” Ukrainian Major Gen. Kyrylo Budanov told the UK’s Sky News in an exclusive interview.
An interviewer asked if a coup is underway, to which Budanov replied, “Yes. They are moving in this way and it is impossible to stop it.”
Putin has cancer and other ailments, he said, dismissing the suggestion that he was spreading propaganda.
The Sunday Times recently reported that Putin has blood cancer, citing an unnamed Russian oligarch with close ties to the Kremlin. And a video recently resurfaced showing Putin shaking while welcoming Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko in mid-February, according to The Independent, fueling speculation that the despot has Parkinson’s disease….
Answer?
No
The Soviet failure in Afghanistan (by mujahadeen supported by Pakistan and the U.S.) was, I think one of the factors that eventually led to fall of the Communist system.
Coffins (often containing the remains of conscripts) coming back with no appreciable victory for the Soviet client in Afghanistan, support for Soviet leaders eroded.
Indeed DSD….
It IS my view that Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin is gonna be seen as leader who drove his country into the toilet militarily , economically and politically on the world stage….
The old Soviet Union IS gone….
It isn’t coming back…
Russian leadership’s historic worry about the West just keeps them in trouble….
Russia IS a part of Europe….
Europe and America spent the last few decades trying to incorporate into things…
But?
Putin has tried to grab back piece’s of something gone….
First Crimea….
Now the rest of the Ukraine….
NOPE….
And this effort by a sick Putin has backfired terribly ….
Retreats from the offence in the North of the Ukraine….
Reports of 40,000 Russian militayry deaths….
Pulling the covers off a military that is NOT what was advertised ….
Subjecting Russian mothers and wifes to the loss of their loved ones…
Subjecting Russian’s to economic hardships…
Showing bodies left in the streets by troops…
Worst?
From the Putin goal of grabbing and destruction?
Will have a STRONGER Ukraine….
Finland and Sweden JOINING NATO which has lost its vagueness …
A reconstructed Ukraine will be even MORE intertwined with Europe and the West…
Putin’s action’s will just help the West and the Ukraine become STRONGER….
Let’s remember….
Putin has purged his secret police ranks about a month ago…..
Reports are that the FSB types left are spreading this coup stuff……
Putin IS a sick man
The vultures seem to be circling, eh?
