    These are not protests about the war.

      True, but they are calling on their people to withdraw from Ukraine, so it is related.
      Also a possible uprising is significant, as it will stress Russia internally.

      Haven’t there already been protests about the war in Russia? I seem to remember reading about Putin’s goons cracking down on citizens who voiced their dissent during a series of protests.
