I think Putin genuinely believed in Minsk and didn't realise he was being played.

I think so too. I think Putin is very naive, gullible and frankly in some ways kind of stupid. I think even now he still believes that he can get along with the West if only more sensible people were to come to power. I just don't think he gets it. He is and remains a diehard liberal to his core.
