War in Ukraine Putin

What Would a Putin Election Defeat Mean for War in Ukraine?

Whilst electoral failure is an unlikely scenario, views of ordinary people are divided on who is really steering the machinery of war in the Kremlin.

Russia’s forthcoming presidential election looks like a dead-cert for incumbent Vladimir Putin. But if he were to lose his grip on power, could that spell the end of the on-going invasion of Ukraine, or might things drag on or become even more deadly?

It’s a question that many consider moot, but the answers reveal just who or what people consider to be the driving force behind Russia’s war – be it Putin, the military, “Russian deep state” or something else.

Kyiv Post’s correspondents took to the streets of Washington D.C., London and Kyiv to talk to ask ordinary people a straight-up question: “If Putin loses power in 2024, what would it mean for the war in Ukraine?”

Watch the video to find out what polled individuals think.

Let all hostilities cease. Let all combatants lay down their arms and go home with complete political immunity. Let there be PEACE. May GOD
grant a ceasefire. Amen!!!

Stop this war and let each side swallow their pride and save the lives of those caught up in this bloody battle. Let there be PEACE. May our HOLY GOD heal the wounds on both sides.

peace will only come with a complete collapse of Russia, the Federation must break up and Russia proper must be pushed back to the 12th century, nothing of positive value comes from Russia... ever! Russia must never rise to a military power again. All Russians must be held accountable for their crimes against Ukriane.
