Very interesting read, a viewpoint I'd never have thought about without reading this poem.
Two suggestions:
The second hyphen belongs at the end of the next to last line, I think (after "sincere").
The last line doesn't quite make sense to me; I understand what you are saying: Putin is afflicted with the same delusion as Hitler, restoring a lost empire, but I think there might be a better way to say it. I think it's the swastika that throws me off. It's such a loaded image. Putin is a totalitarian but not exactly a fascist.
