YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

"The question of prestige is no longer that relevant for Putin," says Nina Khrushcheva.

Speaking to DW's Conflict Zone on the day of Moscow's "subdued" Victory Day parade, the professor of international affairs – and great-granddaughter of Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev – says Russia's approach is now matter of fact: "'Russia is at war. And you take it or leave it,'" she says. But "those who are not agreeing with this kind of approach are going to be eliminated."

What hope does she have that Russia can move beyond Putin and Putinism?
