Sounds good to me:

The above-mentioned politicians believe that after the "elimination" of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Russians will elect the Constituent Assembly, which will create the "State Council". The latter will, in particular:

conclude a peace agreement with Ukraine recognising its territory within the borders of 1991; justly compensate Ukraine for the damage that the country suffered as a result of the war. Afterwards, it will take Russia along the way that the country had already traveled before, during Boris Yeltsin's presidency. Russia will then be integrated into Euro-Atlantic institutions, whereas Russian regions will be decentralised.

I suppose they mean something other than "coup, election fraud, collapse of life expectancy, poverty, and starvation". Oh, and let's not forget the Chechen wars.

Well if Garry Kasparov's plan doesn't work out, I'm sure there are quite a few people in Russia making their own "Russia after Putin" plans.

Russia, if you're listening, it's time to take care of your own problem

Russia may not improve massively post Putin. According to some analysts, it could possibly get worse.

A lot of people do not realise the realpolitik involved. Getting rid of Putin might turn for the worse because there are no viable alternative that could hold Russia together. There is Navalny but how competent is he? He is also as much of a nationalist as Putin is (many Russians are). Lastly, it just occurred to me that maybe that's why many Russians still support Putin, because they do indeed see him as the stabilising element for Russia. Dictators always play the stability part to stoke the innate sense of human yearning for security and people's notion of "better the devil you know".
