Pick whatever non-NATO source.

    A hardliner will take power (Putin is not the most antiwest russian politician) and then…from the total erasing of Ukraine to third world war, anything would be posible, but neither civil war nor colapse of Rusia. That is the OTAN countries wet dream.

      Putin is the most antiwest Russian politician. And the least antiwest Russian politician. Also the tallest one, as well as the shortest.

      This is very likely. If anything, the existing system will be perpetuated because there’s no replacement atm. It’s been too long in the making and it will take a lot of work to undo. Also, he may be long dead and it won’t change anything in the near future.

      This said there’s always a chance for a change, but not right now.

        What about a change in the West? In order to avoid another Afganistán, Irak, Sirya, Libya and so on…

            No, the question assumes that Putin is s problem (a bad guy) and almost ask his dead.

            Everything is more complex, and if Putin is a bad guy…what about wéstern politicians and their crimes?

            I do not like that position: the “West” is right, the rest of the world is not. That is one of the untold premises of the question.

            Edit: i am not an english speaker, perhaps my writing is not clear enough.

              Definitely but that’s unrelated to Putin and his direct actions. The OP’s question also doesn’t mention anything about West right Putin wrong, they are just asking what’s going to happen if Putin is no more.

                Why is that question possible?

                “that’s unrelated to Putin and his direct actions”, if not related, why? Why asking about assassinated political leader?

                  I meant to say whatever the West leaders are doing does not pertain to the question. The question is not about them.

                    Those kind of questions can not be made without context, it is not a game of words without consequences. If it is a game, just to waste time posting in this or any social network, let’s stop here.

                    It is about a real person, who is a leader, whose murder would spark grave consequences. And that leader actions, like taking the decision of going to war or not, are related to decisions made by other leaders. Right now there is a campaign demonizing that leader, and that campaign normalizes ideas mirrored by that kind of questions. There lots of memes, jokes and things like that asking for Putin’s dead.

                    If i asked, what would happen if Donald Trump were assassinated? Or Biden, or Xi Jing Pin, Erdogan, etc? At this moment when all media are strugling to influence public opinion? It won’t be a futile harmless game.

                    It pertains to the whole picture. IMHO.
