It could have been a normal fall day if not for one unfortunate misunderstanding. We are talking about Vladimir Putin. And since he is 70 years old today, we will remember just as many failures over the past 7 months.
Of course, thoughts creep in that Vladimir Putin was removed a long time ago. Either a protracted illness, or competitors in the Kremlin. If he is still alive, then let these 70 – and there are many more – failures become a bone across his throat.
70 Putin’s failures that he won’t survive
They took Kyiv in 2-3 days
Let's start with Putin's biggest failure since the start of a full scale invasion. We are talking about his wet dream to take control of Kyiv in 2 – 3 days. The invaders failed to do this even after 2-3 weeks, and after 2-3 months nothing has changed.Shameful escape of Russians from Kiev region
And no matter how they glorified the “second army of the world”, the occupiers fled in panic from the Kiev region at the end of March, and after that – from the Sumy region and Chernihiv region. Experts consider this failure to be a turning point.
Kharkov turned out to be too tough for Putin
Putin sought to seize Kyiv only to change power. The city on which he made too high stakes is Kharkiv. But the city persevered. And although the enemy avenges its defeat every day, it remains Ukrainian.
Kherson was occupied, but not broken
Despite the fact that Kherson has been under occupation since the first days of the invasion, Putin failed to achieve his goals here either. Kherson residents – brave and desperate – went out to protest, trying to expel the enemy. And now partisans are actively working there, causing heat to the enemies.

Putin and his failed annexation
And although pseudo-referendums were talked about almost every month, they were only able to be held in Kherson, Zaporozhye, Lugansk and Donetsk regions only at the end of September. The 4 annexed regions should have been Putin's achievements, but they were his latest defeats. After all, we see that the occupied territories are getting smaller every day.
8 years – 8 packages of sanctions
For 8 years of the war, 8 packages of sanctions were imposed on Russia . Here are the main of the latest restrictions that concern:
- import of steel materials,
- refusal of investments in the energy sector of Russia,
- ban on the import of coal and other solid fuels,
- an embargo on Russian oil,
- disconnection from SWIFT of a number of Russian banks.
Ukraine continues to receive military assistance
It is not only about providing weapons to our state, but also training the military. The entire civilized world has united and ready to give almost the last to overcome the enemy. And this is a significant failure of Putin!

Russia buys artillery shells from the DPRK
No matter how much the toad – Putin – praises his swamp, but we all see that it is small and long dried up. The same applies to the equipment of the Russian army. The occupiers have such serious problems that they are literally forced to buy artillery shells from the DPRK.
And Iran has drones
Enemy randomly fired an insane amount of rockets over 7 months, that he decided to use, as the people say, “rockets for the poor.” Or, seriously, with Shaheed-136 drones bought from Iran.
The most powerful blow comes from China
Putin did not wait for support from the head of China, because Xi Jinping did not become an ally of Russia. We are not just talking about China. The head of state announced his support for Kazakhstan the day before. Such a warning for Putin, if he wants to attack her too. Recall that President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev not only condemns the actions of Russia. From the very beginning, he refused to recognize the “LPR” and “DPR”.
Yes, and Putin is no longer a “regional leader”
The full-scale war against Ukraine showed the weakness of Russia, as well as its troops . Therefore, CSTO,, which should become a miserable parody of NATO, has every chance of falling apart.And it's not just about the fact that Kazakhstan answered. Armenia also seeks to change the vector to the West. And all because this pseudo-organization did not help the country due to the aggravation of the war with Azerbaijan. We don’t abandon our own, right?
Meanwhile, NATO is expanding
Since we mentioned NATO, we note that Russia was so afraid of its expansion that its fear has a chance to come true soon . Putin rang his weapons around, so even neutral Sweden and Finland decided not to hesitate by submitting applicationsto join the Alliance. Cherry on the cake, so to speak, was the corresponding application from Ukraine. Our state filed it on the day when Putin announced the annexation of the temporarily occupied territories. Another slap in the face that the bloody dictator deserved.
Putin was hit by a boomerang
Another blow in the stomach of Putin was the SCO summit, where the participants demonstrated that he was nothing. If once Putin made the British Queen and a number of other heads of state wait, then during this meeting he felt all his insignificance.Even the leader of small Kyrgyzstan, Sadyr Zhaparov, kept himself waiting for the bunker grandfather.
We are already silent about the fact that during the conversations of the heads of state, Putin was more like a vassal on the couch, after all, the conditional “throne” occupied by Recep Tahir Erdogan himself. It was he who showed during the SCO who is in charge here.
Soldiers die – equipment is destroyed
We could not ignore the loss of the enemy in the war. After all, no matter what anyone says, this is Putin's loss. After all, it is he who places the “pawns” on the chessboard at the front. Let's just leave for you the current statistics, which the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine published on October 7:
- personnel – 61,680 people,
- tanks – 2,466 units,
- armored fighting vehicles – 5,093 units,
- artillery systems – 1,455 units,
- MLRS – 344 units,
- air defense systems – 177 units,
- aircraft – 266 units,
- helicopters – 233 units,
- UAVs of the operational-tactical level – 1,067 units,
- cruise missiles – 246 units,
- ships and boats – 15 units,
- vehicles and tankers – 3,862 units,
- special equipment – 135 units.< /li>
Unblocking ports
Another failure of Putin can safely be called unblocking three Ukrainian ports – Odessa, Chernomorsky, Yuzhny”. His plan to starve the world didn't work.
Gas blackmail didn't work
Another major failure of Putin's – feeble attempt to arrange gas blackmail. The dictator intimidated Europe with the cold. Therefore, in Europe they decided to strike ahead of the curve. A number of countries have already refused gas from Russia. Some are on the way to a total rejection of it. And this is just the beginning.
A successful counteroffensive is the best gift
Lastly, we will leave you another 30+ failures of Putin in the war that this bloody dictator unleashed. We will recall only some of the settlements that have either already been liberated from occupation, or at least raised the flags of Ukraine over them. We are talking about Balakliya, Izyum, Kupyansk, Volchansk, Cossack Lopan, Lyman, about a dozen settlements in the Lugansk region, as well as several dozen in the Kherson region. And this is just the beginning!

We all wish Vladimir Putin to immediately end his miserable existence in this world. The best gift he can give himself is to self-destruct.
