NO.
Im pretty sure that if putin wanted to start WWIII, hed have done it by now and second of all, there would be a coup in the kremlin to displace him.
Ye are making putin out to be some tyrranical monster in the mould of hitler or stalin, which he is not. Hes a shrewd guy and he knows that war is not in the best interests of a stumbling russian economy. What he is doing and i dont agree with his influence on ukraine, but i understand it, is trying to protect russian interests in that region.
Some of ye are so creative ye should be writing science fiction.....
