Putin may provoke even more problems for Russia
Foreign analysts believe that Putin's refusal to compromise is a serious strategic mistake.
We are talking about colossal losses of international influence, markets for energy exports, and global allies.
The Russian dictator does not want to stop the war because he has not yet taken revenge on Ukraine for challenging his regime and not wanting to submit immediately.
A statement on this matter was made by Russia expert Michael Kimmage.
This is deeply irrational, even fanatical, but it is one of the many reasons why I think Putin simply cannot distance himself from this war.
The Russian dictator ignores the fact that he has already lost many of his allies, including Kazakhstan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Syria.
By ignoring Trump's demands, Putin is once again straining relations with the United States, which had only recently begun to improve.
Largely due to the use of force, Russia's position in Eurasia, including in regions where it once dominated, is weakening.
