Putin does nothing in space. Its Roscosmos and its executives. It would be silly if someone said that Biden destroyed a satellite in space right? Putin isnt really experienced in space programs. Other people are.
IIRC Putin's First deputy prime minister is also the deputy PM for space, the director of Roscosmos being directly beneath him. Maybe Putin isn't a megalomaniac.
Why do you imply Roscosmos is an autonomous organisation not under direct control of the President? Who do you say is in charge of decisions to take military actions (fire weapons) into international regions (space) from Russia?
