Putin Just Got Things Much Worse. Kremlin in Panic Mode. Fragile Status of Crimea - The Russian Dude



Putin proposed 30 hours ceasefire for Easter, hoping Ukrainians won't have enough time to respond. But they did, humiliating Putin along the way. The Russian propaganda worked extra time to clean up Putin's mess. Just for him to get things much worse. He proposed another ceasefire, 3 days this time, and Ukrainians countered his offer again! Kremlin should be in real panic mode. But at the same time, the fragile status of Crimea is yet again the center of our attention.
