Yep, Putin successors would be fighting to take-over from Putin. Though there are several, if not many. Which will make it quite a fight.
As such, my suggestion to break up the Russian Federation and suddenly the power base for all the would-be follow-up's would be gone.
And, to break up the Russian Federation, NATO needs to be in Moscow. Not to claim the country, though to initiate the political break-up of de Federation. With that, the Russian threat would be diminished, if not gone, etc.
You should be on stage with this, its comedy gold.
