The end of the war in Ukraine will come with the withdrawal of Vladimir Putin from his post. That's what Abbas Gallyamov thinks, the person who once wrote the speeches to the President of Russia.
He points out that Putin will step down this year and appoint his successor in order to avoid a tragic end to his tenure.
On the YouTube channel "Khodorkovsky Live", Gallyamov claims that Putin will hand over power to someone who will negotiate with Ukraine for peace and restore relations with the West. It also states that Putin will not appear in the next elections in Russia, which will be held in 2024.
According to Gallyamov, Putin is afraid that he will fail in these elections, so he will take a step back himself. Putin's potential deputies, according to the political analyst, are 3: Sergey Sobyanin, mayor of Moscow; Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin and Dmitry Kozak, Putin's deputy chief of staff.
In the end, Gallyamov underlines that Putin wants a quiet retreat: "This is the right path for Putin, compared to Ceausescu or Gaddafi. At least, Putin would have guarantees for his personal security."
