Their news is beginning to admit/report on his dark side more and more. No more of the cartoon superhero they created in Feb/March. If one didn't know any better, they might think this stuff about his regime is just starting to be discovered when it's been known for years. Why are they doing this now? It's prolly an indication they're preparing to dump his for a different narrative re the Ukrainian issue somewhere down the line. But he's lucky. Unlike Saddams/Ghaddaffis etc, he'll wind up at worst in exile and comfortable (and super rich!) somewhere in the West. His country, of course, will never be itself again.
