Putin is afraid and scares Trump: that hides behind the threats of the Kremlin repeatedly strengthen the blows
" Note that in recent days, Putin regularly responds to all such shelling, although a year ago, when the same Kazan was fired, he was silent. And here is a personal reaction. It seems to me, first, he now wounds himself in his own right (that he refuses to negotiate and frightens the world "Oreshnik"). It is a kind of raising the ponds in his own head. Secondly, his entourage pushes him "to the front" (when he voiced what he was previously voiced by Medvedev and Volodina).
Why does this do the environment? Obviously, Putin, in their understanding, becomes more manual. He is driven into a corner, he will be forced to rely exclusively on the old guard, which will be able to play his swan song. It is not excluded that this is the moment when the tail brings the dog and drives Putin into a situation where he cannot escape from certain traps. The first time in the war it happened when it proclaimed four areas annexed.
And then his logic was simple: the West would be afraid to give a weapon for war against the Russian territories. Now, I understand, the environment plays on his ambitions and fears, and finally pushes to believe that the United States will agree to all its conditions, because Trump will just go anywhere.
Putin is simultaneously afraid of Trump, but at the same time tries to himself (with the help of his environment) prove that Trump can be as weak as Bush, who swam after a hurricane Katrin, as Obama with his re -rescue of relations with the Russian Federation and, of course, like Biden. At the same time, he is still afraid of Trump. But it seems that his environment, which requires war, knowing that Putin wants this war, assures him that he should not be afraid.
Trump will not go anywhere, will agree to all Russian conditions. This is all I write solely to try to explain Putin's logic. Life will make serious adjustments. And Putin's current state can be compared to the child's behavior in front of the dentist's office. The child is afraid, but says to his parents, "True, I'm not afraid of dental?"
