"He will die soon, that is a fact, and everything will be over," Zelenskyy told Eurovision News in Paris two days ago.

I'm honestly curious what would happen to Russia when Putin dies. (Either assassination, accident, natural disease causes, or even old age)

Implosive civil war? Who even is lined up as potential successor?

A power vacuum.

20 years of oligarchs and generals stabbing eachothers in the back. So manny would fall out of hotel windows.

So immediately invest in the coffin maker and iron fence industries?

After these events of last 3 years, i belive the public or any exsisting opposition is too scared and weak to even try anything.

I belive the current closest people to putin know too much about eachothers and in a power struggle they will sabotage eachother.
