Vladimir Putin's isolation and refusal of criticism over his tactics in the Ukraine war echo the downfall of fellow warmonger Adolf Hitler, an expert has claimed.
Hitler died in a bunker in 1945 after refusing to give in when Nazi Germany started losing the war - a culmination of poor tactical decisions and not listening to his advisers.
Similarly, it is "very difficult" for Russian generals to tell Putin something he doesn’t want to hear, investigative journalist Andrei Soldatov told Channel 4 news.
