The legal mechanism to split up Russia is to decapitate it, so that individual regions will cease cooperation with Moscow.

- cmurf 5y agoThis is nonsense. Decapitation is not a legal mechanism, it's WW3. The individual regions lack the capacity to function without Moscow. The state borders were designed by USSR planners to make it extremely expensive (high likelihood of war) to break apart. The borders intentionally cross ethnic boundaries to make a future breakup worse than just tolerating the borders.
- trasz 5y agoDecapitation by NATO would be a war. But it’s fine if it’s done by someone from inside Russia - or perhaps by unnamed “terrorists”. Regarding Moscow - can you explain what does it provide that regions need? And how does it make hard to break apart when it’s already been done in the past?
