But there are several persons from the inner circle of Putin who “are falling from the stairs”, “are committing suicide by jumping from the 11th floor of the hospital” (because he really had some sort of mental issues probably), etc.
We shouldn’t forget that Putin uses Poison against his opponents (like in the Roman Emperor who died of poison, poison).
So I think that the oligarchs must be turning toward one another. I don’t know better than the U.S. intelligence but the “inner circle” of Putin is a snakes nest anyway.
Yeah, it's hard to say what goes on in the inner circles. Even in Soviet times, "Kremlinology" was the word they had for trying to figure out what the elite were thinking. But it was largely guesswork, and often wrong.
I certainly wouldn't want to work in a government where failure meant execution. Much better to be a high level official in the US. In America if you completely fail at your job you can easily become a high level expert commentator on TV news.
