Russia has been isolated internationally because of it war in Ukraine and according to a report a powerful man in the Kremlin, tried in vain to warn him Vladimir Putin on the consequences of the Russian invasion.

According to the Athens News Agency broadcast by agents.media, the investigative journalism website “Agenstvo” reports that President of the Court of Auditors of Russia Alexei Kundrin tried to talk about it with the Russian president.

The other person stated that Putin does not take into account Kudrin’s views on politicsbut trusts him for his knowledge of finance and fiscal. This is the reason, as he claims, that the chairman of the Court of Auditors decided at this meeting not to say his opinion on the war, but to say that war is harmful to the economy.

News of Putin’s meeting with Kundrin appeared on the Kremlin website on June 14, but the transcript of the meeting made no mention of the war.

According to the imgs of the website “Agenstvo”, Kudrin, despite his disagreement with the war, does not intend to resign. He thinks it will be more useful if he stays in place and tries to influence the situation, says one of his acquaintances, without specifying what exactly his influence is.

In fact, information from these two persons states that people close to the president did not dare to say something similar to the Russian president, although there are dissatisfied people both among the heads of state structures and among the military. The majority of the dissatisfied, the website writes, have simply lost them, such as for example the president of the Russian bank Sberbank, German Gref. 200 senior executives who are part of the bank’s leadership have left the bank and Gref fears for its future, says a former high-ranking bank executive.
