The political leadership of Russia was in a difficult situation due to the growth of protest moods inside the country.

This is on air "The Observer. LIVE "military expert Alexei Arestovich declared.

"Putin knows what the protests of the young and where the Maydan began in Ukraine. It is enough to wait for the third beating of students in Russia, and it can break out. Russia is a house of cards. If one card is taken out, all. And the third Chechen can be, and a riot in Tatarstan, and anything. Therefore, there is a very complicated internal political situation, "he stressed..

According to Arestovich, attempts at a forceful decision will not lead to anything good.

"They crushed, shot, planted. On the third or fourth turn, if the crisis so goes, then the population will rebel and start firing back. And this is a civil war that will take place in Russia in a much more violent and bloody scenario than, for example, our second Maidan, "the expert said..

The conditions are created when Putin sits like in a "hot skillet", the military observer believes..

"This means that he will make a lot of mistakes. In difficult conditions, it is difficult to make the right decisions, which means that one mistake will pull the other and the situation will become increasingly complicated, "he concluded..

As reported by the "Observer", earlier Arestovich said that Russia will not be able to keep the Crimea long in the occupation and in the near future there will be prerequisites for its return to Ukraine.
