This wouldn't work without military occupation, since such dictator wouldn't have support of Ukrainian military/population.

Belarus and Kazakhstan's rulers aren't popular and don't require permanent support. Parachuting in soldiers lets Moscow amplify its strength. (America does this too.)
- The_Colonel 5y agoBelarus and Kazakhstan dictators have support of local military. Ukrainian military these days is pretty built up and indoctrinated. It's not doing 180-degree turn-around just like that. Russia won't be able to control the situation remotely with just a threat of a parachute operation.
