According to him, the fact that Russia itself will collapse due to sanctions or pressure is an illusion.
“You shouldn’t count on this, because Putin is very experienced in how to prevent collapse, he knows all the reasons that led to the collapse of the Soviet Union. He will do everything, and the machine will do everything, so that Russia will not collapse. There will be no Maidan in Russia in the near future, and we need to throw this out of our ultra-patriotic wishes that Russia will soon collapse on its own and so on - this is an illusion,” Marchuk said.
