[quote=Anonymous]Putin's off ramp is that he has immunity from war crimes prosecution as long as he's head of state. Charles Taylor set the precedent there. It wasn't until he lost power that he was able to be arrested, extradited and tried. It will also be exceedingly difficult to gather enough evidence to prove his personal guilt. That becomes even harder after the "cleansing". If he leaves Ukraine and takes the loss then he still survives. Most of his misbegotten wealth is in Russia. He lives to fight another day and can blame everything on corruption, incompetemce or an intelligence failure. All he has to do is purge his top brass and manufacture some show trials. He can still blame NATO for the looming economic disasters and gets to crackdown on the oligarchs himself. It'd suck for the Russians but Putin would be fine.[/quote]
