    If he believed he was bound to fail in Ukraine and bound to fail in Moscow, wouldn’t the latest news suggest he has even fewer options than he had before? He’s backed himself into a corner surely?

      I’m not sure what you mean.

      But apparently, the deal entails him moving to Belarus and not being persecuted.

      So, if my assessment is correct, which is a big if, he went from Putin putting a mark on him to an at least decent chance of surviving in Belarus, by pulling this hail Mary.

        If that’s truly the deal he took, he’s cemented himself as a fool of historic proportions and he will die in predictable fashion in Belarus (if he ever makes it).

        That’s not how Russia works. Now he can never stand near a window, cliff or staircase, or drink tea.
