Exiled Russian politician Gennady Gudkov, a former Security Service colonel, says Putin is so detested in Russia that they would kill him if they could.

“Everything will start with the regions. Their rebellion could lead to a revolution in Moscow, in which case Putin could be removed from power or physically eliminated. The elite can't stand Putin. This applies to the elite and Moscow and the regions. But there is a long distance between hatred and the physical elimination of a leader. Will people go for it or not? We can only guess. Putin has deprived the future of the Russian elite. The elite and members of the family of the elite can be physically destroyed, and they are well aware of this, ”says Gudkov.

According to him, Putin has no choice but to resort to nuclear blackmail.

“Putin is now trying to save his own skin. He is well aware that the war is lost and it is only a matter of time. Now all he has left is nuclear blackmail. These referendums, the annexation of Ukrainian territories, his speech from the podium - everything fits into this scheme, ”the Russian politician explains.

At the same time, Gudkov says that if Putin could use nuclear weapons, he would have done it long ago.

“He is afraid of his own death, because he was threatened by the Americans, the British and even the Chinese. China, of course, will not bomb Russia with nuclear weapons, but if Moscow uses such weapons, Beijing will also take certain steps against Russia. They told Putin unequivocally – don’t you dare!” - says Gennady Gudkov.
