Putin warned by top Russian academic it is 'too late' to save army from defeat in Ukraine
A Russian political scientist tells Express.co.uk that Putin's stronghold on power is coming to an end.
Russian President Vladimir Putin cannot reverse the inevitable military defeat he faces in Ukraine, political scientist and Kremlin critic Boris Kagarlitsky tells Express.co.uk. The academic says that the Russian military is a "mess" and warns Putin that the situation cannot be salvaged.
Mr Kagarlitsky said: "Today's Russian army is a mess of unmotivated soldiers who are under the command of incompetent officers and controlled by corrupt generals who could steal everything that moved.
"Now they are trying to fix it, but it is already too late. This kind of reorganisation would take a few years, and they just don't have that time."
