I hope Putin is not re-elected. But I don’t like to talk about “regime changes” in reference to nations which have elections. A satisfactory “regime change” would MERELY mean someone else replace him. Hell, I’d be quite satisfied with Medvedev.

Russia does not have fair elections. You can’t have elections when you have nothing but state propaganda for media. You also have political opponents beat up and jailed.
Regime change? If he dies, he dies.
