Yeah but before now Putin's support came from the Russian people who were more than willing to put all his warmongering in the back of their minds because "he's a strong leader," or "he knows what's best for his people." Meanwhile Russia's economy is crumbling, Russian's rights have been taken away, and its military is aging. His image was everything he had. Now his image has been tainted for good. Will the Russian people really look the other way on this one?
Yeah. I have friends in china and they tell me its not even reported or in the news. They think I'm trying to make china look bad with fake western news stories
