🇷🇺 "#Poutine est comme un requin qui doit rester en mouvement pour survivre. C'est typique des officiers du SVR et du #FSB que j'ai suivis : ils ont une mentalité de prédateur." @douglaslondon5 #Russie #Ukraine lexpress.fr/actualite/mond…
🇷🇺 "L'objectif [de #Poutine] est d'intimider, mais aussi de maintenir une image d'invincibilité du pouvoir, dont il a besoin pour maintenir la cohésion de ses partisans en #Russie. Mais plus il menace, plus cela veut dire qu'il est faible." @douglaslondon5
🇷🇺 "Pour stopper #Poutine, l'Occident doit lui faire vraiment peur, en menaçant sa capacité à se maintenir au pouvoir en #Russie. Car il sait qu'il ne peut pas se permettre de le perdre. La fin tragique de Mouammar Kadhafi l'a profondément marqué !" @douglaslondon5

Nelle ultime due settimane sono state adottate sanzioni contro la cerchia di #Putin. In Occidente si pensa che così facendo, potremmo assistere ad un regime change a #Mosca per mano degli alti ranghi. Perché questo potrebbe non succedere mai? (1/8)🧵
1) Innanzitutto è necessario definire a quale gruppo di fedelissimi ci si riferisce. Ad oggi, gli #oligarchi (intesi come “businessmen”) sono stati soppiantati dall’establishment nell’ambito della sicurezza, i cosiddetti #siloviki.
Se Putin riesce a controllare i siloviki, non dovrà poi preoccuparsi così tanto degli uomini d’affari. Questo non significa che figure come Roman #Abramovič non contino niente, ma che è più sensato far pressione più sui siloviki che su un Oleg #Deripaska.
