  "input": {
    "prompt": " Illustration (editorial cartoon style) of an unnamed, Putin-like Russian leader at a lectern with microphones, speaking to press. Behind him: a giant flip-chart showing the number “3,000,000” written in thick marker with several underlines and question marks. The crowd in the foreground is a mix of journalists and military analysts; the analysts are shown doing the “silent stare / long sigh / closing the laptop” sequence (one person mid-sigh, another closing a laptop very slowly). Avoid exact facial likeness—suggestive silhouette and suit only."
