Who should snipe him? And what would it change? This isn't a Hollywood movie.

US agents killing the russian leader would easily result in something like WWIII.

Gotta prove is was a US agent. A lot of people want him dead, including his own countrymen. He dies, the kremlin washes their hands of the entire thing, says he was a lunatic out of control anyway and everyone finally unclenches.

You seem to be assuming those next in line won’t share any ideology with the lunatic warmonger.

Russia has repeated this pattern of corruption and self destruction over and over, alway asking "how could the west do this to us?". I'd like to have hope that someone sane takes the seat, but we all know that their government is filled with horribly corrupt people. Nothing short of starting from scratch would solve it with any effectiveness.

I'm not too sure Russian government needs to prove who did what, they'll happily declare a narrative that suits them and act on it.
