Reuters: Putin blasts West, says world faces most dangerous decade since WW2
LONDON (Reuters) - President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that the world faced the most dangerous decade since World War Two as Western elites scrambled to prevent the inevitable crumbling of the global dominance of the United States and its allies.
In one of his longest public appearances since he sent troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24, Putin signaled he had no regrets about what he calls "a special operation" and accused the West of inciting the war and of playing a "dangerous, bloody and dirty" game that was sowing chaos across the world.

Must-watch?
ReplyDeleteOnly for Putin or Russia watchers.
ReplyDeleteYou watch Putin for the same reason people would watch Hitler in the 1930s. You might not like them, but you want or need to understand them, because that is the world you lie in.
ReplyDeleteI am amazed that after reading, watching or hearing so much about Hitler, I learned something novel about him. Some have diagnosed him with encephilitis lethargica. Apparently, there was an encephilitis lethargica pandemic from 1917 to 1927. Maybe there actually wasn't. Maybe TPTB will change the DSM again. Maybe it was just extreme PTSD. Not sure of there is an actual physical vector, bacterial or viral. I can imagine the trenches being unwholesome and allowing many novel vectors free reign.
Anyway it is useful to think of Hitler (or others) like they were water and not a metal spring.
