Yulia Latynina

I can predict that the state of Syria will most likely no longer exist. It will be divided, to some extent, between Turkey and, perhaps, chunks of Syria, the Alawites, and the territory that Israel controls.

Ivan Yakovina

I'm completely confident that at some point, Putin will try to strike the Baltic states. I believe he has many plans drawn up regarding Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. Of course, he is unlikely to go for Finland, given his past bad experience and the fact that the Finns are more prepared to defend their country.

Dmitry Bykov

I am absolutely confident, and you will see, it won't be long to wait. Three things will become completely unacceptable in the world after this war. Prisons will disappear from the world as the main instrument of the enslavement of the people. Nationalists will disappear from the world, because any nationalism, at its extreme, leads to Nazism. And borders will disappear from the world. After the war in Ukraine.

They won't seize it. It will agree to some kind of slow integration on its own, like Hong Kong. In response to the comment: "If Taiwan is captured..."

Yuri Fedorov

North Korea's air force is incredibly weak, it's practically nonexistent. In the event of a war with South Korea, their air force would be destroyed within the first few hours.

Sergei Markov

The German Chancellor stated that Russia must pay 500 billion euros to Ukraine. And then Russia can ask for the 200 billion euros frozen in the EU to be returned to them. Hmm. By the way, in that case, they wouldn't give back the 200 billion euros for anything. They'd find something to fault.

Chinese won't displace English... Unless, of course, the Chinese switch to Latin script, which they won't.

Konstantin Borovoy

And Zelensky also cares about security. He understands that stopping the war means immediate elections, immediate removal of this group from power, and the start of investigations into this group's activities after the elections.

Konstantin Borovoy

First, Putin says, recognize these territories and give me guarantees, and then I'll be ready to stop the hot phase of the war. He understands that if the war stops now along this line, it will lead to endless negotiations that will last decades and certainly won't result in the recognition of occupied territory.

Konstantin Borovoy

If the war doesn't stop, it will lead to the removal of democratic power in Ukraine and catastrophically increase the chances of Putin's supporters coming to power.

Putin also has an awarded weapon, but he'll never have the guts to make the right choice. Meaning, Putin won't shoot himself.

This is a rehearsal for a speech in Nuremberg: "we have nothing to do with this, we are journalists." Mark my words, remember this broadcast. The speech will be identical. Kiselev... Dmitry Kiselev will be tried analogously to the Nuremberg trials.

Oleksiy Arestovych

I think Iran's acquisition of an atomic bomb is practically inevitable now, sooner or later. Because they will immediately resume their nuclear program—they have already resumed it—and try to achieve it. Whether Pakistan or China helps them, or they accidentally find a car with a nuclear bomb parked in the mountains, that's a secondary matter.

Andrey Yakovlev

Russia isn't going anywhere, regardless. All these expectations from some colleagues that Russia will collapse or disappear are deeply naive. There will be no collapse of Russia.

Ian Matveev

How many more years will Putin need to achieve his goals? Putin's goals are unclear, so it's unknown. But generally, the goal that Putin is truly striving for—the destruction of Ukraine—I think he won't have enough years; that is, he will die sooner.

Yevgeny Kiselyov

Putin is absolutely sick, we see that. Completely unhinged. Totally obsessed with placing the foot of the last surviving Russian soldier somewhere on the border between Ukraine and Poland, no matter the cost, no matter the human losses, no matter the reputational damage to Russia on the international stage. That will never happen.
Expected

Yuri Felshtinsky

Tens of thousands of high-ranking state security executives were shot during Stalin's time. Therefore, they are not reintroducing the death penalty because they care about the people and do not want to scare them, but because they know that they themselves will be the first to be included in the execution lists. They are doing this for their own safety, for their own selfish interests, and not for humanitarian reasons. So Mironov can certainly call for the reintroduction of the death penalty in Russia, but I do not think that will happen.

This utterly pointless and merciless war being waged by paranoiac Putin will, unfortunately, not end as long as he remains in power and in good health, regardless of the efforts of the international community.

Garry Kasparov

Russia must suffer a crushing military defeat in Ukraine to prevent the war from spreading further. If Ukraine fails to defeat Russia, the war will continue onward.

Mikhail Svetov

The U.S. military remains the most powerful force in the world. And any attempt to hit Israel with a nuclear bomb would provoke a U.S. response against Iran so overwhelming that it would be catastrophic.

Tatyana Popova

They all talk about the Strait of Hormuz as if it were a given… It seems to me that if they go through with it, it will guarantee the overthrow of the Ayatollah regime.

Sergey Smirnov

I don’t believe Vladimir Putin will even come close to acting like Lukashenko. He won’t release a single person. Putin will not free political prisoners as Lukashenko did on June 21, 2025.

Daniel Sachkov

Moreover, from Gaza (as we know, Trump has already said he reached an agreement with Egypt) at least half the population will be evacuated—and eventually all of them. Israel will not accept a single migrant; those still there—indigenous Palestinians—will be expelled from the territory.

Andrei Bogdanov

Since Freemasonry is quite a conservative organization, this process is taking a long time. Someday, women will probably be admitted. But my prediction is that it will be like in our pre-revolutionary schools — separate classes for girls and boys, but within the same gymnasium. Likewise, there will be an à la unified Grand Lodge of some country, consisting of both a male and a female Grand Lodge.
Expected

Stanislav Belkovsky

It is well known that Putin will not lift the moratorium on the death penalty. Because the death penalty in modern Russia has been outsourced. If someone needs to be executed, it is not the state, the courts, or the investigators who handle it, but specially trained individuals.

I believe that once Netanyahu is brought before the bench of defendants in Israel—as he inevitably will be—many aspects of the October 7 events will become known following the interrogations of Netanyahu and his associates.

Vladimir Putin

Now a few important—very important—words for those who might be tempted to interfere in what is happening. Whoever tries to hinder us, and especially to create threats for our country, for our people, must know that Russia's response will be immediate and will lead you to consequences you have never faced in your history.

Sergey Auslender

North Korea: Apparently, there's a meme going around showing the North Korean Führer looking sad — everyone is bombing everyone else, and he wasn’t invited. Of course, he could attack South Korea, but then he would be killed, and he doesn't want that.

In a nuclear war against NATO, I proceed from the assumption that it will happen. That it will be a war between NATO and Russia. Putin will lose. Russia will cease to exist.

I think that as long as Russia doesn't win the war in Ukraine — and it has no chance of winning — it won’t attack anyone else.

Sergey Smirnov

I think Yavlinsky isn’t as irritating; he’s less visible on the local level — it’s Moscow, not Pskov. Yavlinsky seems to be less media-present than Shlosberg. He makes some strange statements once every six months, and that’s it. In this sense, I think he doesn’t face any particular risks. Yavlinsky won’t be arrested like Shlosberg.
Expected

Aleksandr Kynev

The story with Shlosberg is very sad and tragic. The case will end in imprisonment, although it's strange how a call for peace can be considered “discrediting the armed forces.”

Dmitry Bykov

I don't have the feeling of a triumphant march on Sumy. The attempt to plug these gaps with convicts also turned out to be less than absolute, because the convicts, as the Prigozhin march showed, are not the most reliable followers. I think there will be a mobilization. There will be another mobilization in Russia.

No, they can't. Change from the bottom cannot happen. These hopes are illusory. Response to the question: "Can change come from the bottom in Russia?"

We will strike Moscow with ballistic missiles. Please write down what I said, dear friends. What's the date today? June 8th? So, on June 8th I said that we will strike Moscow with our ballistic missiles. Please write it down. Ukraine will strike Moscow with ballistic missiles.

In the event of a defeat, Russia — in its current form — will, of course, cease to exist... The emergence of several state or proto-state entities on our present territory is highly likely.

Sooner or later — we don't know when — one can be certain that nuclear technologies, technologies for producing nuclear weapons, and the weapons themselves will spread among states that are capable of producing them, maintaining them, using them, and that are interested in doing so.

Russia’s defeat in Ukraine is inevitable, and as a consequence, so are the internal processes within Russia itself — of transformation, dismantling, disintegration, or the creation of a new state entity.

Mikhail Khodorkovsky

The fundamental problem of Russian society is infantilism. And it is this infantilism that Putin is now trying to combat through mobilization — but this struggle will end in the federalization or even confederalization of Russia. Unfortunately, Putin is in the process of breaking the country apart even further. The stages of imperial collapse that could have been completed in 1991 — and which might have led to a consolidation across the Russian lands resembling that of modern European nations — have now, unfortunately, been brought by Putin to a point beyond which a new collapse, or the continuation of the existing one, is in my view almost inevitable — in fact, 100% inevitable.

In the end, Ukraine — this is my prediction, and I may be wrong — I believe it will change its non-nuclear status. That’s my forecast, a long-term prediction. Because there’s no other way out.

After the strike on Russian airbases, Russia probably has, at most, 50 operational carriers left, including Tu-160 bombers — which the Russians are unlikely to risk using in the war against Ukraine. Well, it's hard to say.

I assume — and there are many arguments in favor of this — that the next person, if Chechnya remains within the borders of the Russian Federation, will most likely be either Vladimir Putin’s personal bodyguard or some retired general. But in any case, it will not be a Chechen or a person from the Caucasus.

Well, that’s nonsense. It’s nonsense. There will be no nuclear strike. In response to the remark: "Alarming news. U.S. citizens — the American embassy in Kyiv is urging heightened vigilance... There are reports that the Americans might be fearing a nuclear strike" (on Ukraine)

If Kadyrov does die, for example from illness or something else, my prediction is that none of Kadyrov’s successors will stay in power — neither Delimkhanov nor Daudov will remain presidents of Chechnya, that won’t happen, and his son won’t stay either.
