mene mene tekel upharsin. God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

Thus Putin/ Ozimandiaz carves his own memorial with a message for NATO and all the world:
“My name is Putin the Great, Czar of Czars;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
.
And due to his fulfilled threat of nuclear weaponry to gloss his pride:
“. . . on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command”…
“Tell that …
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

Keep chiseling, for that will be over your dead corps….
