Too well written, too human, too considerate to be a FSB Whistleblower. At least a real agent not just a regular business analyst. So strong indications of a fake.

The analysis of world hunger is not supported by this current analysis, even if Russian and Ukraine are leading grain producers. The analysis will be updated as the conflict drags on.

Now...a more interesting analysis would be Putin latest video with the Aeroflot flight attendants of yesterday: https://liveandletsfly.com/putin-aeroflot-flight-attendants/

So for months was isolating himself from COVID, sitting with his own Generals: https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/L0WI8.kjuFrSXLM78cVtQQ--/Y...

visiting Presidents, like 300 feet away...then suddenly mingling around in close contact with everybody?

Was the distance thing just a power trip?

1. The original text in Russian is much more chaotic - translator imposed his own structure on it and tweaked clumsy phrasing all over the place.

2. They say that the latest Putin's video is green screened

Putin is green screened into that video. His hand in particular cuts the microphone magician style.

no, this was a compression artefact in the low quality video. Check the high quality video: no clipping.

Look at his hand with the pen at 8:38-8:40, his palm, close to wrist, is definitely clipping into foreground

Yes we all saw those clips - but find the original HQ video first and make your opinion from that.

Highest quality I could find is https://youtu.be/I3JpOy_fOmA?t=512

4k quality even has interlacing artifacts which makes me think it is as close to original broadcast you can get

Those claims have been debunked, but hats off to Zelensky for trolling Putin on that one with his own mic move...
