Q: Does [Putin] really have cancer?
A: Yes, we fully confirm this information. He has several serious illnesses, one of which is cancer.

But it is not worth hoping that Putin will die tomorrow. He has at least a few more years. Like it or not, it's true.

Budanov: Look at the history of any dictator of the XX-XXI century. They ended the same, absolutely all. None of them ended differently. In most cases, they died against their will... Putin will end the same way.

Budanov: There were assassination attempts on Putin.

Q: Recently?

A: There was even an assassination attempt on him, as they say, representatives of the Caucasus not so long ago... Absolutely unsuccessful attempt, but it really took place... It was about 2 months ago

Two options for war's end:

(1) change in political leadership, Russia out of all occupied territories of Ukraine and elsewhere in world, Russia stays intact and "resumes functioning as a civilized state"

(2) dismemberment of Russia into 3 or more independent states
