Lmao, Navalny wouldn't miss a chance to say something ridiculous like that.
Practically all world leaders had engaged in similar anti-COVID measures. And obviously there was no real bunker.
I wonder what you base your assertions regarding Putin's expectations on?
To me it looks like he only expected more support from people in Ukraine, but it's not that clear, as Russian government seems to have decided to skip the informational warfare part altogether.
- usr1106 5y ago> Practically all world leaders had engaged in similar anti-COVID measures Most of them have been showing up in parliament many times a week, many wearing a mask. (Of course that depends a bit on the government model.) Some of them like Trump, Bolzonaro or Boris Johnson had Covid. Especially Trump grossly ignored scientific advice and had huge campaign events. Trump and Johnson had infamous garden parties. Not that I would call that smart, but that practically all leaders had similar measures is not true. It's said that especially oligarchs lost direct contact to Putin because he stopped meeting people. Whether that is true I can obviously not prove.
