2 other expert commentators are calling the end of Putin's regime in 4-5 years, minimum.

No other Russian leader has inflicted so much damage on his own country in so short a time.
In 5-6 weeks he's set his economy back 15-20 years.
Under events set in motion by his invasion of Ukraine, NATO could have 32 countries including Finland and Sweden, which is a Russian nightmare scenario
It's an astonishing combination of hubris and ineptitude that has caused this

significance of Mariupol analogous to Stalingrad siege in WW2, analogous also to the heroism of Spartans
Russia has zero interest in protecting infrastructure inside Ukraine, doing the reverse, because trying to wreck their economy to eliminate Ukraine as a state, including isolating it from coastal port access
reluctant conscripts key factor to low morale, and morale is to the physical ability to fight a war 3-1 (quoting Napoleon)
Ukrainians operate in a very decentralised semi autonomous fighting units with maximum flexibility, cf. Russians which are top down and cumbersome. Ukrainian system influenced by association with the West, and facilitated by sargeants's links to the populace, so very embedded I the citizenry
Putin has failed to rebuild the Russian military. Authoritarian military dictactorships have the same problem, disconnected, lacking initiative. have to send a General up the front, they hate eachother at the various levels. Russians don't have strongly integrated bonds., government by fear of messing up. So nobody will take the initiative.
Staggering incompetence being displayed by the Russians. Even experts on the subject are amazed by how bad it is.
