@"Kenzo"
I've wondered about that.
His government is a kleptocratic oligarchy. The question is how is power distributed among the oligarchs. I tend to think Putin's voice is the most important, but it is reasonable to wonder how much pressure the other oligarchs may be putting on him to adopt various courses of action.
This is a key reason why any wealth those people have in Western countries should initially be frozen and, later, perhaps outright seized. We may have to watch this brutal sh**-show, but for mafia types, the best response by far is to hit them in their wallets.
Cheers
