As the invasion in Ukraine keeps going, countless Russian citizens keep protesting a war they never asked for and demanding Vladimir Putin’s head on a spike. That’s something the president of Russia can control to a certain extent, however, the many economic sanctions are affecting all Russians and this is a very dangerous practice for Putin himself. There is nothing more uncontrollable than an angry population whose way of life has been turned completely upside down. Isolating the whole country from the rest of the world through his actions is a dangerous game Putin is playing and he is fully aware of the potential consequences. In fact, reports from the Kremlin suggest he doesn’t even trust the closest allies from his own cabinet.
In images of him having meetings with his most “trusted” advisors, we can see an isolated Putin at the other end of a very large table. Initially, reports suggested he was scared of contracting Covid-19 but later reports are painting a very different picture. With so many different Russian nationals completely against this invasion on a neighbour country like Ukraine, there are many concerns Putin has. For starters, many Russians actually have family in Ukraine and completely oppose the president destroying civilian areas arcoss the country. The most recent use of thermobaric bombs has created an unprecedented level of unrest in his own country. Add this to the increasing sanctions, it’s only natural Putin would fear for his life.

Bounties and disagreements from his own cabinet.
European Defence Consultant, Dr Andy Scollick is convinced that Vladimir Putin’s own people will assassinate him within the next seven days. Here’s what he told The Mirror: “Prediction or, rather, hypothesis: Putin will be assassinated by his own people within the next 7 days.” Also, European Parliament member Riho Terras revealed Vladimir Putin is hiding out in his lair located in the Urals and brought some Russian oligarchs so they couldn’t leave the country. In recent hours, a Russian businessman also placed a bounty on Putin’s head for $1 million dollars. It seems like the clock is ticking for the president of Russia and his days might be numbered.
