Putin would be doing himself great favours by distancing himself from the minister of lies and fantasy: Vladislav Surkov. It would come as no surprise if he had significant input into the current debacle: Think Ukraine crisis, pro-russian "separatists" (special operations troops and mercenaries in other words), South Ossetia etc.

Much of what we see from outside Russia is a product of Putin's apparatus attempting to consolidate power in a very broken political system where in-fighting among various factions outside of the public eye threatens his grip on power. Surkov is one of the main people Putin listens to but unfortunately for him, this will end up being the start his undoing.
