In discussions about the future of Russia after the war with Ukraine, there are sometimes opinions that Moscow should go through the same process that Germany did after World War II..

But American political economist and Stanford University professor Francis Fukuyama doesn't think that's a good analogy.. He said this during a discussion organized by PEN Ukraine.

“Then Germany was completely destroyed and occupied by four different forces. The defeat was complete. I'm afraid the situation may go according to a scenario that will be more reminiscent of Germany after the First World War. She lost, but still remained a sovereign state.

And that actually set the stage for the rise of Adolf Hitler decades later.. The Russians, like the Germans, can start looking for those responsible for the defeat, looking for traitors, and so on.. And an even more authoritarian and dangerous regime may come to power,” he admitted..

Earlier, the New York Times also noticed that a war criminal is leading a nuclear Russia.. What to do with him? The world needs a Kremlin with a new leader who could appear after the defeat of the Russian army in Ukraine.
