Perhaps Putin’s profoundest legacy in Russia will be an elite that puts Russia, not the West, first. From Andrew Korybko at korybko.substack.com:
The Russian leader knows the “new guard” of veterans haven’t been tainted by a life’s worth of Western-leaning sympathies unlike most of the “old guard” political and economic elite, whose naivete about the West led to them misleading him about its intentions and thus played role in the events leading up to the special operation.
President Putin shared his vision of a new veteran-led Russian elite in late January when meeting with ministers and top St. Petersburg officials according to RT’s report about their conversation:
“The Russian head of state previously revealed that some 617,000 service members had been deployed in Ukraine. ‘I met today with students, who put their studies on hold, many of them, [and] went to the warzone,’ Putin remarked. ‘It’s out of these people that we should be forming the country’s elite in the future,’ he added. The Russian head of state described returning troops as those who can be entrusted with the country’s development. ‘Hence, they should be supported [and] assisted.’”
The globalists are fuming and scheming while the Criminals In Action are infiltrating.
Putin did what Trump wanted to do years ago and now the external oligarchs want back in to the gas station with an economy and 11 time zones.
Confucius says: One who loves the land where he was born is respectable.
Wow! What a novel idea.
Honouring one’s veterans.
