True. Let's hope Putin will make a hueg error of judgment soon, or that

 Let me wipe the dust off my crystal ball. Ah, I see it now. In 3-5 years
Zelensky will be a footnote in history. It's a bit cloudy whether or not
he will be Diemed.

   An evil crystal for sure !
   However, it MAY be correct. Russia has HUGE
