Stanford \u2063University&#8217;s\u200b Francis Fukuyama\u200d made this prediction\u200c during \u2062the Aspen \u2064Security Forum, stating that he\u200b would \u200bnot\u200b be\u2063 surprised if Putin&#8217;s \u200cregime comes tumbling down \u2063soon.<\/p>\n<p>If this\u200d turns\u200b out to be\u200c true, it\u2063 could serve as a cautionary\u200b tale \u200cabout the dangers\u2062 of autocratic\u2062 rule and the incompetence \u2062it can breed in the absence\u200c of robust \u200ddebate. \u2063The \u2062recent\u2062 brief and\u2062 dramatic\u2064 uprising \u200dled by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a warlord from the \u200dWagner Group, \u2063may not have ended Putin&#8217;s \u2063reign,\u200c but it\u200b demonstrated the feasibility of a change \u2063in\u2063 power.\u2063 Christo Grozev,\u2062 Bellingcat&#8217;s \u200blead\u2062 Russia investigator, noted that \u200cPrigozhin&#8217;s actions showed that \u2064a \u200bchange\u2063 of power\u200b is possible, even \u2064without support from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/chicago-gas-stations-partnering-with-armed-security-to-protect-customers-amid-carjacking-epidemic\/\" title=\"Chicago Gas Stations Partnering With Armed Security To Protect Customers Amid \u2018Carjacking Epidemic\u2019\">security services<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Prigozhin&#8217;s \u2063march on\u2064 Moscow \u2063was\u2062 eventually abandoned \u200cdue to negotiations and an \u2063unexpected \u2063response\u200b from\u200b Putin and\u2062 the FSB.

Prigozhin, \u200conce known\u200c as &#8220;Putin&#8217;s \u200dchef,&#8221; released a video\u200c showcasing\u200c their new positions \u2063in\u200d Belarus \u200dand\u200d promising to\u200c turn the Belarusian army into\u2063 the\u2064 second-best army\u2064 in\u2062 the \u2063world.<\/p>\n<p>This development throws domestic politics in Russia into\u2064 chaos, as \u2062it prevents Putin\u2062 from pursuing \u200bhis plan\u2064 to annex \u200dBelarus \u2063in the 2024 elections. Without\u200c a plan B, Putin&#8217;s grip on\u2062 power\u200b becomes uncertain.\u200b Analysts like Grozev\u2062 believe that\u2064 Putin&#8217;s\u2063 rule may not last until \u200dthe next \u200belections.<\/p>\n<p>Francis Fukuyama, \u2063encouraged\u200b by Grozev&#8217;s analysis, emphasized \u2062that\u2064 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/secretary-of-state-antony-blinken-vows-to-recommit-u-s-to-u-n-human-rights-council-which-still-includes-china-and-cuba\/\" title=\"Secretary of State Antony Blinken Vows To Recommit U.S. To U.N.
