Jumpin said: Putin, do I need to say more? He kills and imprisons his people, sends them off to death in Ukraine. again, you need to understand the leader needs to do what is necessary to run his country successfully the way you are replying and calling all three Xi, Putin and Trump bad people, it seems like you don't know how different countries run or how history functions who do you want as a leader? - some soft guy who says he loves peace  and isn't able to do the difficult things that are necessary to be done He has created more trouble for the world than any leader currently. He's literally the worst leader in the world right now. according to your definition every leader in history is bad then as all great leaders wage war

You've not explained at all why Putin needed to illegally invade another country, send hundreds of thousands of Russians to their deaths (mostly Russians from outside of Moscow, St Petersburg), kill hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians, cripple his economy, etc...To "do what is necessary to run his country successfully" when Russia was mostly fine before this began and had ample opportunity for further collaboration with Europe which would have massively benefited Russia and its population but instead chose caveman imperialism.

Russia's lobbed hundreds of thousands of Russians to their deaths, had an insurrection in their own country, their economy is in the dirt now and entirely propped up by war, their military is battered, they lost any semblance of control of the Black Sea, they caused two new countries to join NATO, they lost a Flagship of their Navy, they lost Syria, they lost any hope in hell of any dominance in the Baltic Sea and they did all this to achieve 15% of Ukraine? Does that sound like any benefit to Russia to you? To the Russian people? That's running his country successfully? Lol.

By your logic, Hitler was one of the best world leaders, despite all the atrocities he committed and despite the fact that it ended with Germany being divided up between multiple countries, Germany's military being destroyed and Hitler laying dead on his floor with a bullet through his brains and his wife dead body laying next to him. Yeah, Germany really won that one didn't they.

We don't have to give credit to these psychopaths, we don't need to call them the "best world leaders" because they're willing to go to war (Wtf?). If UK decided tomorrow to nuke America, it doesn't make Keir Starmer one of the best world leaders, it makes him a psychopath, Lol. Even if we for a second entertain your logic, that some countries doing evil could be beneficial to their countries, that logic does not apply to Russia/Putin at all, the invasion of Ukraine has been a total disaster for Russia in every way possible.

There ain't many people saying Blair and Bush were great leaders because they decided to bomb the shit out of the Middle East.
