Could Putin Be Overthrown OR Assassinated by His Own People?
Could Vladimir Putin Be Overthrown OR Assassinated by His Own People?
As War Drags On, Russia Expert Says ‘Putin Needs To Watch His Back’
The Truth About Vladimir Putin's Bodyguards
The Telegraph UK 13 MAR 2022
Leon Aron, who was born in Soviet Moscow before emigrating to the United States, joins MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell to discuss how failed military defeats have toppled previous Russian regimes and why the war in Ukraine could “undermine Putin’s regime very severely” as the truth about the invasion and deaths of Russian soldiers begins to trickle into the country.
Ukraine may be battling for its sovereignty, but could Putin be fighting for his presidency if the invasion he declared goes badly for him?
Away from any extra-judicial solution to Putin's aggression, tough Western sanctions and Moscow's failure to force a quick capitulation from Kyiv add to speculation over whether the Russian president faces as much of an existential battle as the country he invaded.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is a former KGB agent, so when it comes to his own security, he's naturally got a few tricks up his sleeve. The Russian leader is reportedly growing increasingly paranoid about assassination attempts, following his invasion of Ukraine, so there's been renewed interest recently in the lengths Putin goes to protect himself.
The President's bodyguards, the Federal Protective Service, date all the way back to the czars, when they were tasked with protecting Alexander III, but what steps do they take to protect Putin in the 21st century? This is the truth about Vladimir Putin's bodyguards.
