I have the impression that a good psychiatrist is frequently more useful in analyzing the Kremlin's actions than a political scientist. Putin's threats and violent actions seem endless. There is any apparent evidence that erstwhile Russia no longer has any arguments, it becomes a pariah on the global arena, it loses at the front in Ukraine, it reaches for atomic argument. Putin is simply a wanted BOLO, so now he is peculiarly intensely reaching for the panic of atomic weapons," says Robert Beszczel, Polish diplomat, erstwhile head of the NATO Information Office in Moscow.
