People who knew the real Putin are kept at a distance. That's exactly what you'd do if you use a double, for two reasons:
1 to keep people from noticing
2 to keep your double in check

How so?
Imagine: in all the world, no Putins...all Bidens. Yup, doomed. We have too few real statesmen, and Putin was one of the best. If he's gone, it's a bigger loss than some of us will ever know.

But how would you conduct the stressful business of running a state while in the middle of such a demanding therapy?
You'd still rely on your inner circle and use a double, Russia would still be run by the FSB, same effect as if he were dead.

If true, that means Putin is not the one behind the war with Ukraine. It's a cabal.

I'm pretty sure it's a cabal behind it with or without Putin.
Also not just true for Russia. I guess.
