It’s not going to all fall into place. At least not in the short term. Putin only understands one language.
That said I think there’s a lot more going on in Russia than meets the eye. More rumours of a coupe, more prominent Russians falling out of windows, more Russian soldiers deserting, the price of oil is down and falling into 2026, Putin cutting soldiers salaries, reserves running low, old tanks/APCs have run out, etc etc.
Putin only came to the table for one reason. The long term outlook isn’t looking good for him. But he wants to end things on his terms. Trumps the gullible moron to facilitate that for him.
