The mood in the Kremlin became more gloomy after the decision of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to issue a warrant for the arrest of the President of the Russian Federation. They are already looking for Putin's successor there, but the dictator himself is no longer involved in this.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to Andriy Yusov, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, on the air of the national telethon.
"Russian propagandists did not come out with their traditional shows, where they discussed The Hague in particular, because the very fact of discussing this news even for the zombified population of the Russian Federation would be a strange and too alarming "call". Because to tell that the "special operation" is going according to plan, and then to get a search warrant and an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court - it will be difficult for Solovyov and Skabeeva to combine these things," Yusov explained.
He emphasized that Putin's circle is narrowing, he is becoming more and more toxic both for the outside world and inside the country.
"In particular, in the towers of the Kremlin, there is more and more dissatisfaction with what is happening. There is an increasingly gloomy awareness of the prospects, namely the geopolitical disaster of Putin's regime. And yes, we are already talking about the search for Putin's successor, and it is not Putin who is looking for him," Yusov said.
We will remind you that yesterday, March 17, the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and the Commissioner for Children's Rights of the Russian Federation Maria Lvova-Belova on March 17, 2023.
They are suspected of committing a war crime - the illegal deportation and transfer of the population (according to the ICC release, it is about children) from the occupied regions of Ukraine to the Russian Federation after the start of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.
That is, Putin has the official status of a suspect in the commission of an international crime and can be detained in a number of territories of other countries to be brought to court.
