As soon as the Armed Forces of Ukraine begin to liberate large cities, public opinion in Russia will change, the Russian opposition leader noted.

Massive and far from peaceful protests in Russia can only begin after the local elites split in the Russian Federation .
This opinion was expressed by the Russian oppositionist Dmitry Gudkov.
“People now understand that any protests will not lead to any results, but will only create a risk. But the situation will change exactly in proportion to how the situation at the front changes. As soon as the Armed Forces of Ukraine begin to liberate large cities, occupied territories, then in society there will be an understanding that Putin is suffering a military defeat,” he said.
Gudkov predicts that under such conditions, public opinion in the Russian Federation will change, the level of support for Putin will significantly decrease, and part of the Russian elite will decide that a palace coup is the best option.
“When the elites split, we will see mass protests, maybe they will be radical. Putin also taught everyone that it is pointless to come out with signs. No peaceful protests work here … If we see protests, they will be far from peaceful,” sure oppositionist.
Putin’s regime is weakening: what is happening in Russia now
According to the Russian opposition leader Gennady Gudkov, a split in the elites along the line of generals is beginning in the Russian Federation , and the Russians are massively changing their minds about the war against Ukraine.
Former deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation Dmitry Gudkov previously stated that 9 out of 10 people in the Russian elites are against the war , but no one dared to stop Putin.
The head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine in 2005-2010, Army General Mykola Malomuzh noted that the defeat of the Russians in Ukraine became a signal for the Russian elites . They are already looking for options for negotiations with the West, and some with Ukraine.

A democrat and a brave fellow. It is good to know that there are still some people left in that sewer that have a conscience.
He has just unfortunately put himself in terrible danger. Russia needs a lot more people like him, not less.
Democrat?? Where does it say that? A Just Russia wanted to join the Communist Party of Russia, did you forget?
I doubt that mafia land will have any sort of radical protests.
Agreed Sir OFP. The revolt will only begin when someone puts a bullet in Putin’s head.
The only thing Russia/Putler understands is force. They respect it and they don’t respect American’s with their Joe Biden, because he’s bought and paid for by the Chinese and Russians.
We must continue force to take back out lands. And, continue force to protect Ukraine and our people and our resources.
Today, Kherson is evacuating Russians, let them keep running ..East, with Ukrainians in tow attacking them
Slava Ukraini!!
🇺🇦💙💛!!
Your accusations of Joe Biden being bought and paid for by China and or ruZZia are baseless and have no grounds in reality.
That being said,
Heroyam Slava!!!🌟
Total Victory for ALL of Ukraine!!!🇺🇦
Death to the temporary schizoruscian occupiers!!!💥🔥☠️
Alas, the ties between Biden and China are real.
So show me. Unlike Trump, Biden produced his tax returns.
producing tax returns is meaningless. It’s already been revealed that Biden and his boy were up to their leftist eyeballs in dealings with China. I didn’t have to make anything up.
I think you’re confusing Joe for his brother James. It was Hunter’s uncle James that was involved in a joint venture. You still didn’t give me any references to back up your statement.
Nope!
Then show me some kind of references.
Joe Biden had nothing to do with Hunter and James’ shady business deals with china.
Try keeping up with the news in the future. I don’t have time to go back and look things up from the past two years for you.
If you’re going to make claims and want to discuss things with me you should be able to produce some evidence of what you are talking about. I am fairly well versed and open minded and do a ton of research on a plethora of topics. I haven’t been living with my head in the sand concerning topics we are talking about.
If you wish to play the leftist argument fame, you need to find another place to comment. All you’ve done is reveal you haven’t paid attention to what has been going on over the last 10 years.
I am not dishing out some leftist argument. Your insinuation that I haven’t been paying attention for the last 10 years is the kind of shot someone makes when they can not back up what they are saying. For someone that has no time to explain why they believe what they believe you seem to have enough time to counter comment without relevant information.
My, my, my. You don’t pay attention, then project. Everything has been in the news. It isn’t my fault you didn’t keep up.
A lot of the problem, Sir Bill, is that the media, the DOJ and the FBI have silenced a lot of the facts you seek and blocked investigations. They have become very partisan. Someone arrested for walking through Congress on 6 January goes to prison for 3 years but someone that travels to China, meets with the CCP and accepts millions of dollars through his son isn’t even investigated. Just imagine if Trump and his sons did HALF of what Hunter has done. What would happen?
I really didn’t have too much problems finding some details of ongoing investigations into Hunter Biden and His Uncle James.
I didn’t come away with any evidence from Grassley or Johnson that would link President Biden definitively or criminally to Hunter and James actions. Although Grassley and Johnson are trying to come up with such it’s more of a throw spaghetti against the wall to see if any sticks. Not sure exactly from searching and examining what James may be charged with. But looking like Hunter will at least face tax fraud charges and false statement on application to purchase a firearm. Supposed money people have been claiming Hunter received from former muskcow mayor was deposited into a company Hunter was not the CEO of which had a similar name of one he was at. Unknow what if any connections the two entities may or may not have or had. Statements made by some in here neglect that fact.
The walking through congress thing not sure of which exact case or for whom you’re referring or what other charges they may have incurred on their unauthorized and illegal “walk” through the capitol building.
As for Trump and his sons they and being investigated for many things and rightfully so. Trump and his sons have done many times over the criminal conduct of Hunter and his uncle. If these investigations were more going on while Trump was still president he would have done his best to meddle, obstruct, intimidate witnesses, and buy off whom he could, which the Trump family is still doing just not with the powers of the oval office behind it. So I don’t have to “imagine” the corruptness of Trump, his two eldest sons, his oldest daughter and her husband.
There is far less evidence of Trump corruption than there is of Biden’s. The “investigations” of Trump are simply witch hunts.
Even Grassley doesn’t have a leg to stand on in that regards.
Biden does not help us in Ukraine, nor did you Obama. How do you think Russia took Crimea….with no US assistance. So America and Russia and UK did not support the documents they signed in 94, the Budapest Agreement/Treaty
Why did American Biden not give us any weapons till months after the invasion??
Even when Putin was attempting to assassinate Zelensky
You’ll have to ask Obama and Biden. Based on things that Obama had to say, he was no fan of Ukraine. Obama is also widely recognized as the sort of animal Putin likes. I think the only reason Biden has been giving weapons to Ukraine is because of the hell they raised about Trump supposedly being in the presidency because of Putin’s interference.
Yes I blame Obama for U.S. piss poor responce to the 2014 invasion of Ukraine.
Biden is absolutely helping in Ukraine as the U.S. President, just not as well, as much or as ballsy as I personally and many many others would like. The U.S. was providing weapons way before the intensification of ruZZian hostility in their 8 year plus war against Ukraine.
As for with Crimea VP Joe Biden didn’t have the powercall Obama did. VP Biden begged and urged Obama to provide lethal weapons and make a stand with Ukraine. He was ignored. It wasn’t Biden’s call back then, any more than VP Pence had at going over Trump’s head. VP in U.S. is more of a side kick whom gets tasked with stuff the President doesn’t want to deal with.
The way the crappy Budapest Memorandum was worded it didn’t have any teeth. But UK and U.S. could have and should have been bold enough to go above and beyond the words of that document. (And I still think both nations should.) But Ukraine needs the KSC to be implemented.
“There is far less evidence of Trump corruption than there is of Biden’s.”
So not true.
“The “investigations” of Trump are simply witch hunts.”
This is an outright lie.
Sorry Bill, it is a fact. What is going on just a witch hunt. But you are welcome to embrace any fantasy you like.
You are the one whom is embracing a fantasy if you don’t think anything turned up in investigations concerning Trump, If it was a “witch-hunt” as Trump was so fond of calling it, (so I’m sure you’re just parroting your idol) then it turned up a lot of witches, brooms, caldrons, and a host of other evils that Trump engaged in. So quit telling me to believe what ever I want or telling me to embrace some fictious fantasy world where facts don’t matter.
Dream on child.
Who invaded us in Ukraine in 2014????
Who did nothing for us in 2014???
ruZZia did covertly.
If you’re referring to the U.S. it did with sanctions, medical and humanitarian aid. Also groups were formed together with President Poroshenko to train AFU and bring them back from the years of neglect
and corruption. I was way pissed at Obama and still am on his dealings with Ukraine and Syria. VP Biden was trying to get Ukraine weapons in fact the request for javelins which Trump ironically signed was submitted by VP Biden.
And Putin too…40 million to 100 million, just before the 2014 invasion of Crimea
Follow the money…..40 million from Russian, some say as much as 100 million. That was just before Putler invaded Ukraine Crimea.
Check your American Hunter emails
Just because Hunter and his uncle were involved in shady deals with China does not make President Biden a co conspirator. Even Grassley has nothing definitive I’m the Hunter Biden e-mails to make a solid accusation against President Biden. Neither of you have given any evidence of a President Biden ruZZian tie either.
Some people saying something is not a solid basis and would not hold up in court.
in not I’m take it everyone already figured that out however.
Some of your comments where getting lost in the sunflowers on the page I’m viewing. But VP Joe Biden wasn’t responsible for Obama’s inaction in Syria or Ukraine. In fact the request for javelins that Trump ironically signed was put forth by VP Joe Biden. Also he helped Poroshenko bring the Ukrainian military back from a dilapidated state that had been so neglected and pillaged it resembled the army Moldova. Trainers were brought over and the U.S. invested in Ukraine’s military future. VP Joe Biden also helped Ukraine deal with persistent corruption which is still being addressed. Various agencies have been outed as collaborators and ruscist enablers. I’ll see if I can read more of your comments on a different device.
But VP Joe Biden also allowed his son to sit on a corrupt pro-Russian gas board in Ukraine and accept tons of money though not knowing a thing about energy. VP Joe Biden also threatened to withhold a billion dollars if the General Prosecutor Shokin didn’t get fired and stop investigating the Biden family business. Just imagine if Trump Jr. sat on a pro-Russian gas board in Ukraine, lol he would have been tarred and feathered.
Hunter Biden was doing his own thing and and wasn’t asking his dad permission to conduct his business actions.
Prosecutor Shokin was corrupt and had nothing to do with any investigation of Hunter, or Biden family business. Yes I agree that it is a fact that Biden was instrumental in putting a hold on some aid until Shokin was removed.
Jr. should still be tarred and feathered but for what he did in S.C. not the hypothetical pro-ruzzian gas board seat.
It was the US fault because the way Obama acted with Putin. If serious sanction has been imposed then, we would not be where we are now.
How is it The U.S. fault of putler’s actions. Yes Obama royally botched any substantial response by the U.S. This does NOT mean the horrors imposed by Vladolf Putler is the fault of the United States of America.
Oh please! Weakness is provocative, and Obama was quite weak. He was utterly incompetent in foreign relations and was completely out of his depth with the Russian Empire.
Obama’s screwing up still does not make it the fault of the United States.
Blame Obama then.
Saw you made another comment elsewhere but I lost it in the sunflowers again. But I will address it. When I can read it.
Like it or not, POTUS is the chief officer of FedGov and responsible for foreign relations. Putin’s actions were a result of Obama’s weakness and because of his position, The US’s fault.
I understand he is commander in chief responsible for foreign relations, that does not make his actions the fault of the entire nation. You are way reaching out on a limb by thinking you know what moved Putler to his actions.
Like it or not, POTUS represents the entire nation. You don’t have to like that, but you do have to deal with it.
Obama’s corruption….and Biden’s corruption which started in 2014.
Both did not help us in Ukraine in 2014 and gave Putin the green light
Seriously, stop making excuses for the American’s….
Obama and Biden started this mess back in 2014 with Putin
