That is the reasoning of the desperate. What he lines out there simply will not happen.
Also, I thinkj he fundamentally misjudges the psychology of Putin. If - and to me by now that is a very big "if" - Putin even still is alive. I have my doubts on that.

Russia can not compete with the west economical Russian economy is about the size of Italy you think it can compete with top 10 economies nah it just lost about 1 million of its workforce going out of Russia these are highly educated people. Russia has had already problems with shortage of its workforce life expectancies are low it is highly corrupt and has no forced workforce like it had under Stalin. In history, many thought they could beat the US economical boi they were wrong. This war will end exactly as Western policymakers want it to end.
