HUR on ICC decision: Kremlin is already looking for successor to Putin
Andrii Yusov, Spokesman for the Main Intelligence Directorate, said that after the decision of the International Criminal Court to arrest Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, the Kremlin is looking for a successor to the Russian President. Source: Yusov on the air of the national joint 24/7 newscast Details: Yusov noted that on 17 March, Russian propagandists did not come out with their shows where they discussed The Hague because debating this would be "a strange and disturbing 'call'" for the population of the Russian Federation.
Quote from Yusov: "Putin's circle is narrowing, he is becoming more and more toxic both to the outside world and inside the country.
In particular, there is more and more dissatisfaction with what is happening in the Kremlin towers. An increasingly grim awareness of the prospects, namely the geopolitical catastrophe of the Putin regime. And yes, we are already talking about finding a successor to Putin, and it is no longer Putin who is looking for him."
