Putin is terrified of Ukraine’s counteroffensive
Putin is in a panic over the expected Ukrainian counteroffensive, which may already be in its preliminary “battlefield-shaping” stage. He doesn’t know, anything more than the rest of us do, when the offensive will be launched, where it will strike or whether it will succeed. What he does know is that if he achieves significant success, his own days might be numbered, with fissures already opening inside the Kremlin and between its most important henchmen.
