That’d probably be true for a while, but after that they’d need to start an “election” where some military commander or other higher up will take his chair.
This isn’t about truth or facts. If something major happens in Russia or related to it and the president doesn’t show up to talk about it, that would raise eyebrows. Now imagine that happening over and over again. Putin dying would be the perfect opportunity for the US to start swaying Russia into a civil war. They definitely don’t want the president’s chair to be empty and contested for.
The most useful thing to them will always be to shove anyone atop that chair before the US notices.

Fascists do not care about truth or facts, only authority, so whichever they deem more useful to them at the time they will make use of.
