Olga Lutman, a freelance senior researcher of the Center for Analysis of European Policy, said this, Newsweek writes. According to the expert, tension is ripe within Russian society. Especially after Putin's announcement of the so -called "partial mobilization". Now reports of the ISS warrant on the arrest of the President of the Russian Federation. "Thus (visiting Mariupol - ed. ) He actually signals to the Russians that Mariupol is their territory that does not belong to Ukraine.
And also that he is free to visit," Lutman said. She also emphasized the importance of the fact that Putin has visited the occupied territory of Ukraine for the first time since the beginning of a full -scale invasion. "It was done to strengthen the support and unite people in Russia around this war, as well as to distract from the ISS warrant," the expert said. At the same time, as Luthman is confident, Putin's arrest warrant is a turning point in Russia and the West.
Yes, Europe and the US do not want to have serious negotiations with the Kremlin while Putin is in power. "This is the complete chaos of what is happening and, in fact, the beginning of the collapse of the state that has not happened," the expert said. In her opinion, the warrant gave a clear signal to the Russian elites that Putin became a burden. It should be reminded that on March 19, the occupied Mariupol was visited by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
