Thousands protesting in Georgia against the government's decision to suspend accession talks with the European Union "until the end of 2028". Aleppo being attacked by Syrian Rebels which seems like a well coordinated assault at an opportune moment. Fuck sake it's all falling apart for Putin and Trump is right around the corner to bail him out.

Lob another Storm Shadow at Russia for good measure.

So, Russia has lost in Africa and will lose in Syria it seems? 

Not been following Africa so I'm not sure.

Syria is too early to tell but the combination of Iran being distracted by their proxy war with Israel, Hezbollah being decimated by Israel and Russia bogged down in Ukraine has put Assad in a weaker position and it seems Free Syrian Army has decided now is the time to strike, IIRC Erdogan is also a big backer of the Free Syrian Army so it may be him moving on a weakened Russia too.
