He will be putin a coffin
They will be russian to put him in the ground.
Lenin on the shovel after stalin long enough to only dig half the hole.
Yup, nothing to figure out there. At the end of the day it’s just siberian any other coffin
He would die.
Technically correct. The best kind of correct
What if he have nano machine, son?
Nano machine lost in pocket. Putin die.
During his next public speech, you'd notice that his eyebrows are slightly bushier, his voice is slightly deeper, and he's suddenly an inch taller.
"Doppelgangers! Listen!
There is a good news and a bad news for you this morning.
The good news is: Our Great Leader has survived the dangerous attack last night.
The other news is: He has lost his right arm. "
No matter who actually did it. Russia would blame Ukraine/NATO/USA/The West in general, together and separately in rotation.
After that I have no real idea, who would succeed. There would be a massive power struggle both in the government and military.
There is a strong possibility that several of the autonomous regions within the Russian federation would try to break away. There is about a 20% chance of a civil war because of this.
And about a 1% chance of nukes being used.
Well Ukraine is on the table as a non-NATO source and obvious contender given the war.
Ukraine would do it with the help of several other Western nations. A definite team effort!
I doubt anyone would help them given the implication.
Currently, there is no other really powerful figure next to him.
Therefore a giant power vacuum emerges.
The war would stop, probably very soon. But then the situation gets chaotic and unpredictable.
I'd wager the war goes from internal, to internal civil war, if Putin dies, as various power blocks try either secure their own positions/power, or reach for more.
assuming they didnt try to blame the west, which then things get far more worse for NATO states, and possibly hot
There’s got to be some kind of Vice Putin isn’t there? A guy who can step in and rule with an iron fist and keep things running? Or is this just some kind of jackal feeding frenzy sort of situation when he dies?
Yeah I'd imagine the troops in Ukraine would be pulled back into Russia largely to secure someone's position in their upper ranks, with only enough to maintain defensive positions in Ukraine. If Ukraine broke through during this period it'd probably be over while Russia is distracted with internal issues.
largely to secure someone's position in their upper ranks
Yes, or simply because noone else really wants this war (=wants the country to pay the price of this war).
There would be a power vacuum, probably a few murders/suicides/defenstrations, and the elections scheduled for a few months from now will probably be postponed during the struggle for leadership of the country. My guess is the powers that eventually take over will agree to pull out of Ukraine, conduct a few show trials, and do whatever else they think they have to in order for the west to lift the sanctions and unlock the oligarch's accounts.
It would please me greatly to know that Ukraine will outlive Putin.
Ukraine would get blamed.
Ukraine would claim they did it, and everyone would clap
how DARE they!
We (Russia) tried to assassinate Ukraine's leader multiple times but were unsuccessful. It isn't fair that Ukraine was successful in their attempt on our leader!
Being a member of the KGB, he'd probably be replaced quick with someone who is just like him.
Didn't know they already build the Cloning Vat.
Plastic surgery on a double for public appearances. Deepfakes for videos.
An even worse Putin coming to power.
He likely has a dead man's switch to release the trump hooker piss tapes
Putin might never be allowed to die... (even if he already has).
I can't imagine Russian fakery would be that good. This could be out of a comedy sketch.
40k?
That'd probably be true for a while, but after that they'd need to start an "election" where some military commander or other higher up will take his chair.
Something like Futurama's heads in a bowl?
Life imitates art. He died, they put his head in a jar and then just kept going.
I would feel better albeit for just a moment.
destabilization until the Kremlin finds a new president in that time probably multiple nations would be indipendent and Ukraine would pretty much launch their offensive and the union state collapses and tv stations all across Russia hijacked
Nothing.
There would be another president & the west wouldn't be happy with that one either
