Russia may already be preparing 'escape plans' for Putin in case the Russian army is defeated in Ukraine
R. Gelfenstein - Sources inside the Kremlin say Vladimir Putin and his relatives have already made preparations to flee Russia if the invasion does not take hold and his army is defeated in Ukraine, according to the Daily Mail.
As his offensive on Donbass territory loses steam, as Ukraine rearms to regain Kherson and its collapsed economy, the Russian leader is "aware of the possibility of a sudden change of mood in the country" in the face of tension. of hostilities without further ado. conquests of the victims they leave in their wake.

Iran would be another destination that the oligarch would consider favorably if his first option were thwarted, as it would prevent the invasion of Turkish airspace.

As a prelude to his premeditated plan, Putin met with his Turkish and Iranian counterparts in Tehran earlier this month, ostensibly to discuss Syria.
