In my view, her chances of getting elected are slim; in Putin's Russia, they are practically zero. Even in a post-Putin Russia, her chances won't be much higher, to be honest. On Yulia Navalny's chances of being elected president in a post-Putin Russia.

I think that "The Wonderful Russia of the Future" is a fairy tale that will not come true. It is possible that there will someday be a democratic regime in Russia. But then it will be a completely different Russia, and most likely not in the size of 17 million square kilometers. He means that there will either be no normal democratic regime in Russia, or if there is one, it will be in a territory smaller than the current size of Russia (hinting at the possible separation of some regions).

And since Ukraine will eventually get more long-range missiles—either the West will allow it, or Ukraine will develop them on its own using Western technology, as Yuzhmash is a powerful scientific and industrial complex that knows how to build missiles—they will build these long-range missiles themselves.

It cannot be said that a nuclear strike is impossible... it can happen, but it seems to me that the probability is extremely low, and it would mean the end for both Putin and Russia, as well as for the collective Putin.

Finland and the Finnish government will never, at least in the near and medium-term future, agree to host nuclear weapons on their territory.

Remember, back in August, Alaudinov, a Chechen general, said that the war would be over in 2-3 months. No, it won’t end; it will drag on for a long time. The war in Ukraine.
