You once said to me that Vladimir Putin was more
Dostoevsky than Hitler. Do you still think of him
in that way? I think he's a doss type
figure they said by ambivalences and unfillable aspirations, but
not devoted to power in the abstract uh but very
capable of using uh power that it turned out.
He used it excessively in the relationship uh to uh
to Ukraine, I would like a Russia to recognize
that recognizes that its relations to, but to Europe
have to be based on agreement and the kind of
consensus. And I believe that this war will,
if it ended properly may make it achievable if it's
ended on the terms you're describing? Do you think
Vladimir Putin can survive in power? It's improbable.
