Narrative Analysis: Name Calling

Only his closest aides know how he spends his time during these absences, which can go on for days even in the middle of a national crisis. The Kremlin does its best to fill the vacant airtime on state TV with pretaped footage of the president, waiting for him to reemerge and declare that everything remains under his control.

The bloodthirsty Kremlin dictator launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. The “special military operation,” as he called it, has become a protracted war with stubborn Ukraine not bowing to Russia’s imperial ambitions.
