Could President Putin be suffering the effects of mild COVID.? Certainly one of the symptoms is increased  aggression.Medical science should discuss.Meanwhile a part humurous piece below:

 

Privet/Zdravstvuyte Comrade,

VK.com is used by 80% of Russians. Most Russians speak English. However, beware. It will ask for detailed personal information. It’s essential to lie. Using a nonstandard password is imperative. Details leak onto the dark internet. You do not want that.

Most Russians have friends and relatives in Ukraine. They do not want war. Although outside the cities they are less aware. They are fed a diet of fake news.

Comrade Putin may be suffering from Post Covid symptoms. COVID can affect different different organs including the brain. Even mild COVID can induce symptoms of paranoia and aggression. Many Russians will feel Putin at 69 has more than done his bit. He should now enjoy a well-earned retirement. It will be an interesting to see who they tip in his entourage as successors. This is of course a purely academic exercise.

Putin is an alpha male. One unfortunate outcome of said discussions is entirely possible. Hotly tipped members will step in to helpfully relieve their leader. This will leave him free to enjoy Judo and hiking. They will do this because Putin is an alpha male. They eliminate rivals. Unless of course rivals act quicker. Threat is a powerful motivator. Internal threat fatal. The only reason they do not resist at present. Cars will drop in at midnight men in balaclava’s will insist on offering them a long ride. To Siberia. Survival instincts will go into override if they are nominated as successors. Even if they never volunteered for the honour. This is part of the realpolitik of present Russian politics.

For this stratagem to succeed. You need loads and loads of people to login. It needs critical mass.18-25’s in particular are idealistic and computer/media savvy. This is potentially more effective than Molotov cocktails and Embassy protests. The world finds Ukrainians and Russians charming. They do not want either to die. Commence login.

Probably not. He’s been downright dictatorial and authoritarian in his separation from the infected and isolation against risk. 

As for the rest of your post… yeah, no. 

He would have had to be suffering from a Covid infection since the late 90s.
Ever since the destruction of the city of Grozny.

Battle of Grozny (1999–2000) - Wikipedia

Of course, back then the Russian military was a lot more capable and fearsome.

Vlad's certainly showing bad judgement/mental fog, so perhaps covid is responsible for that?

I mean, launching an invasion in the muddy month of March is just getting his forces bogged down.

Anyway, trying to conquer the whole of Ukraine is a bad idea, he should just have occupied the pro-Russian Donbas region in the east where they love him to bits and then declared it part of Russia.
