Dictator's weakness: Surrounding themselves with 'yes' people who will not tell the dictator the real truth. The dictator's own flaws then become more evident.

EVEN 'IF' Ukraine says it will never join NATO in a peace deal, and even 'if' Russia totally leaves Ukraine, especially in southeast Ukraine and in Crimea in that peace deal, (of which Putin does not want to do, but even 'if', otherwise Putin would still have a 'net win' with the invasion of Ukraine), then this is still a warning message to other nations around Russia. Join NATO now while you still have a chance to, otherwise Russia might attack you next and have a peace deal whereby you could never join NATO either. Join NATO now while you can and have the full backing of NATO. And 'if' Russia does not leave southeast Ukraine AND Crimea, well the rest of the 'free' world could still maintain the massive sanctions against Russia because the rest of the 'free' world is not a part of that peace deal. Then Putin and Russia would still eventually have a 'net loss' in this invasion of Ukraine.

@8888LR And yet, Putin's weakness is being a dictator who surrounds himself with 'yes' people.
