Putin is the only one who thinks he is a tough guy and who is winning his invasion. 100 days later he is the only one shrinking.
He is so short that he has to stand on a stool to make himself appear big and strong, among his shrinking military brass. Meanwhile, reports continue surfacing about him dying of cancer.

100 days of Russian genocidal full-scale war against Ukraine. 243 children were killed (verified). Up to 50,000 civilians were reportedly killed in Mariupol only (not possible to verify yet). Torture on Ukrainian POWs. Mass deportations. Mass rapes. War of Ukrainian identity. Putin must be stopped.
