After 25 years in power, Vladimir Putin faces unprecedented pressure as Russia’s war in Ukraine continues into 2025. With more than 1.1 million Russian casualties and 332,000 dead and wounded this year alone, even the Kremlin can’t disguise the scale of failure. Polls show 66% of Russians favor peace talks, signaling rising discontent.


Economic sanctions, a fuel crisis, and repeated battlefield losses have left Putin isolated. Analysts warn the next two months in Donbas could define the war’s future, with failure potentially forcing a ceasefire before year’s end. Russia’s elites and citizens alike are questioning the regime’s direction — and Putin’s ability to lead through collapse.
