HODGES: We don’t really know how much Putin knows or what info he gets. Many people believe he is not being told the truth about how bad things are in Russia. Because in that sort of system, you don’t get promoted for delivering bad news to the boss or for being part of failure.

Maybe he knows that changing them would ultimately make it difficult to put the blame on them.</p>

<p class="text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words">Putin believes he can dictate how things will turn out. That is how he has always ruled. It was his strength on his path to power, but now he no longer has the means to make amends for these mistakes. Perhaps he is aware of this; perhaps he even knows it, and yet he remains in his cocoon.</p>

<p class="text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words">personally i think people around him are just telling him that the russian army is advancing on all fronts and everything is just fine unless its impossible to hide it
at the same time these people are probably discussing amongst themselves how to correct there situation before</p>

<p class="text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words">He knows but he cannot act upon it. His army is incapable to reach the goals he set. The only thing they can do is meat assaults and targeting civilians. The alternative, stop the war, is impossible for him as it would deny his identity and beliefs that started the war of denial of 🇺🇦 independence.</p>
