Putin is afraid of the wrath of the Russians, disappointed by the war in Ukraine - former FSB General

Vladimir Putin is in a bad psychological state and tries to stay away from other people, says the former FSB head of Moscow Yevgeny Savostyanov. More and more Russians are being dissatisfied with President Vladimir Putin's policies due to military failures in Ukraine. Such information is cited by the British edition of Express, referring to the former head of the Moscow FSB Department of General Yevgeny Savotyanov.

According to the source, during the year of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation they could not achieve significant success in the war in Ukraine and remain on the same lines of fighting for a long time. So now Vladimir Putin is very afraid of "anger" of the inhabitants of Russia, who can find a way out at any moment, so he is looking for any way to achieve victory. "Putin understands the mood of people who have lost everything through him, so he keeps away from them.

Putin is now terribly frightened. He realizes that he has been in trouble. He is now in a psychological state that is clinging for any opportunity to win," - said Eugene Savotyanov. In his opinion, Putin "ruined himself", ordered to attack Ukraine. British journalists noted that the progress of the Russians in Ukraine stopped at the borders of Donbass, and it is unclear how hostilities can develop in the next few months.

Vladimir Putin tried to strengthen the troops with the help of partial mobilization, but it did not help the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. In September 2022, about 300,000 soldiers were mobilized in Russia, but they went abroad even more, not wanting to fight. According to the Russian State Information Agency "RIA Novosti", by the end of the year the population of the Russian Federation decreased by about 555. 3 thousand people (from 146. 98 million to 146. 42 million).
