I concur. Most importantly whoever succeeds Putin must be capable of generating sufficient confidence in their constituency to be able to persuade them that this was 'Putin's' war and a mistake otherwise the resentment, tension and latent hostility toward Ukraine will continue to fester leading to a delayed and maybe better prepared round two.
