  1. These are very uneducated takes. He messes up authoritarian dictatorships and totalitarian ideological regimes. Also, when it comes to wars, countries mostly do what they have to do irrelevant of whether they are democratic, authoritarian, totalitarian, etc. International politics should not be confused with domestic politics. Countries make politics according to their interests and strive to further their power. In that aspect, Russian war with the Ukraine was unavoidable since as early as 2008, maybe even 1991. Putin or no Putin.
