During the special military operation we are liberating Russian territory. How do you feel about Western countries helping our enemy?
Vladimir Putin: The point is not that they are helping our enemy. They are our enemy. They are solving their own problems with their hands. That is what it is all about. This has been the case for centuries, unfortunately, and continues to be the case today.
Ukraine itself is not our enemy whereas those who want to destroy Russian statehood and to achieve, as they say, a strategic defeat of Russia on the battlefield, are mainly in the West, but still, there are different people there. There are people who sympathise with us and who are with us at heart. But there are the elites who think the existence of Russia (at least in its current state and size) is unacceptable. They want to disintegrate it. As a matter of fact, you are young people, some have read about this, perhaps: they do not hide it. They speak and write about this publicly, and have been doing it for decades, if we are talking about contemporary history. For decades, they have simply been writing frankly about it: divide Russia into five parts, one is too much. I can talk about this till morning, but it is obvious.
Therefore, they have been nurturing the Kiev regime for quite a long time, precisely to create this conflict. Unfortunately for us, they have achieved this: they started this conflict and are trying to achieve their objective, namely the task of fighting Russia, with the help of Ukrainians.
you, too, have probably heard many times: the Ukrainian army expends 5,000–6,000 155-calibre shells there per day of combat operations, and the United States produces 14,000 per month. Per month! And they use 5,000 per day. Yes, they are planning to increase it during 2024, but still, they produced 14,000–15,000, they will produce up to 20,000. But if you use 5,000 a day, then the supply depletes quite quickly. It is close to that now. And we are building up and will continue to, exponentially at that. They were supplied with more than 400 tanks (450 or whatever it is), and in a year we will produce and overhaul 1,600. This is not a state secret; in fact, there will be probably more. It is like this almost across the board. Therefore, though it has been their goal to deal with Russia from time immemorial, we will deal with them faster, it seems
Psychopath.
Putin is a Putin Stooge.
Yeah. Lol.
Putin: “.. the Ukrainian army expends 5,000–6,000 155-calibre shells there per day of combat operations, and the United States produces 14,000 per month. Per month! And they use 5,000 per day. Yes, they are planning to increase it during 2024, but still, they produced 14,000–15,000, they will produce up to 20,000. But if you use 5,000 a day, then the supply depletes quite quickly. It is close to that now. “
Before anyone chimes in and claims this sounds like Reverend Wright’s comments about US artillery shell production - I am not Putin’s alt on FR !
Putin’s speech sounds accurate
I don’t care about Putin and I don’t really care about Russia. They’re crooked. Ditto Zelensky and Ukraine.
But we have been providing weaponry that has been killing Russians by the 10s of thousands. Thus it is not surprising that the psychotic Putin is issuing not-so-veiled threats vs the US and Europe.
How many Russian operatives are already inside our country via the porous southern border? I shudder to think.
While Putin speaks to Russia’s armed forces wounded vets, Joe Biden’s next pubic appearance will be to give another speech to rail against “white supremacy,” for January 6, no doubt written by the the permanent, woke DC Obama remnants who pull his strings
All while America’s Veteran’s hospitals in border states are full of illegal immigrant invaders.
Putin, the former KGB agent, actually makes a lot more sense than America’s present Neo-marxist apparatchiks.
“They are our enemy.”
So why did you collude with them to help get them elected?
“They are our enemy.”
So why did you collude with them to help get them elected?
Because you want enemy countries led by the most corrupt, incompetent leadership possible ?
“How many Russian operatives are already inside our country via the porous southern border? I shudder to think.”
You should be more concerned about the 3rd world ragheads that are here.
I can’t imagine Biden having a dialogue with his troops like this. Hate Putin or not, the guy is light years ahead of the assisted living moron we have occupying the Oval Office
“Because you want enemy countries led by the most corrupt, incompetent leadership possible ?”
Absolutely. I recall counter-intelligence briefings which warned that foreign agents target the most corrupt and immoral people to turn to their cause. Easier to control. Their moral compass always points to themselves. With electoral corruption it becomes easier to place operatives in high positions of public office.
Part of the reason I support FL’s new public official disclosure law. KGB/GRU is a global organized crime organization. It is active world wide with operatives even in US local governments. Cleaning up corruption is also cleaning out foreign agents. FR needs it too.
No lies told he’s merely stating the facts.
So he helped elect a bunch of incompetents that “forced” him to invade Ukraine? Or was invading the the plan all along?- Then it makes sense - It gave him political cover to invade— all the “denazify, globo homo” nonsense of the people he wanted to win just gave him a pretext.
“Putin is to some alleged conservatives what Che Guevara is to the left.”
Actual conservatives do not support a revanchist Communist dictator. Traitors and trolls do.
I didn’t know about VA hospitals. Thanks for info.
IMHO, Russia is a better country than Ukraine and Putin is smarter than Zelensky.
I’ve been all over the world except to Russia, Always wanted to see beautiful St. Petersburg. A very cultured city, with fabulous art museum.
Does Ukraine have anything like that?
