Good! Another potato general has been sent to hell, where the devil can fry him forever.
“The cause of death is not specified. Preliminary, he said goodbye to life due to health problems.”
Health problems usually occur after your head meets a sidewalk after falling out of a 9th floor window.
However he died, it was unlikely to be from natural causes (or from a real accident).
When you need a scapegoat for all your failures, you are not winning a war. Even Adolf didn’t execute his generals when all was lost.
And, making leaders fear for their lives for every small mistake only makes things even worse.
I recall Lincoln had a Confederate $5 banknote in his wallet the day he was assassinated. Respect is a word Putler will never understand.
Nope, he never will.
