The Leaked Kremlin Slide Deck for Ending the War
Scott Galloway, Anne Applebaum, and Fiona Hill examine Putin's shrinking options in Ukraine, including a leaked Kremlin slide deck showing internal planning to sell a ceasefire as a Russian victory.
The gist
-
A leaked Kremlin presentation shows Putin's inner circle is already working out how to frame a ceasefire as a win for the Russian public.
-
Putin faces rising casualty rates, sanctions limiting oil revenue, and factions within the Russian elite who want the war to end.
-
Applebaum and Hill argue Ukraine's decentralized, networked society drives resilience, while Putin's top-down system leaves him few options when pressure builds.
-
Historical precedent suggests autocracies like Russia's can collapse suddenly and without warning, and there is no clear mechanism to choose Putin's successor.
