Vladimir Putin: ‘The Old World is Over’

The following extract from the latest speech by the Russian leader is widely banned on all social media platforms, but is crucial to understanding the context in which current affairs – economic, technological, military and scientific – are headed.

New centers of power have emerged, the unipolar world order isn’t coming back, and the “colonial” way of thinking has failed, Russian President Vladimir Putin told the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) on Friday, in what the Kremlin described as an “extremely important” speech.

    “The West spent years turning Ukraine into an “anti-Russia” state and pumping it with weapons and military advisers, Putin said, pointing out they “did not give a damn” about Ukraine’s economy or the lives of its people, but “spared no expense to create a NATO foothold in the east, directed against Russia, to cultivate aggression, hatred and Russophobia.””
    “Did not give a damn”. Don’t we know it allready.

    The west does not need to turn the people of Eastern Europe against the Russians, the Russians did that when they controlled those countries. The Russians still follow their viking heritage of pillage and loot whatever they control. Why do you think the Ukrainians are resisting so fiercely? Is it because they still remember life under Stalin’s rule or because there are still people who remember what life was like as a member of the Warsaw Pact? You notice that it is the NATO members who were once under Russian control that are most opposed to Russia. They know what it was like to be controlled by Russia (Hungary and Chezcoslavakij invasions). Ask a Romanian or a Pole what life was like under a Russian puppet. They are not joining NATO to attack Russia, since they will bear the brunt of the fighting, but to avoid going under their control. Why does much of Finland, ceded after WWII, still remain underRussian control? Not by choice.
    You paint the west as imposing their will on these countries but after living through the deprivation of Russian control they are not willing to give up their prosperity and return to those conditions, even if it means sacrificing their lives.
    The contention that because there are Russians living in Ukraine they have a right to be part of Russia is the same stupidity that allowed Hitler to take over Chezcoslavakij and Austria. It didn’t result in peace then and it won’t now.

        Are you talking about Germany or Japan after WWII? When Russia conquered a country in WWII they put every factory or anything value on trains and transported it to Russia while the Allies rebuilt those countries they conquered.

            Hi Howdy,
            Western control does not mean taking everything (pictures of Russian armored vehicles with “liberated’ toilets strapped on them to be sent back to Russia) and leaving the population destitute. It involves getting them use to a more prosperous lifestyle and using their desire for better to keep them buying and indebted.

            I think we might be at crossed purposes Herb. I’m on about the world at large. We are in a world war and Putin is the obstacle. I don’t mean to us everyday folk, but to mr potato head and co at the wef.

            All the shortages and nonsense are by design. It’s a pity Brexit ended or that could be blamed instead.

            I don’t do the msm propaganda, so I’ve not watched any lies apart from what I’ve seen in passing, and it will be done when it’s done.

            Instead of population, it’s populations. Everything of value is in the pipeline, with cash first on the agenda. Everything else will go in due course. That is what I call leaving people destitute.

            Putin has scum on his doorstep, and that scum is Western interference, so can’t blame him taking a scrubbing brush to it. He said Ukraine was loaded with Nazis. He wasn’t wrong.

            Spoils of war and collateral damage. See the Western leaders about that one. They are lower than animals. Even a dog will take in an ‘enemy’ cat and help it.
            No war is without it’s losses and I hope Putin rubs their noses in it, which he’s not doing too badly allready.

            Things will unfold as they must.

            Hi Howdy,
            I am not disputing your experience or right to an opinion. What I am trying to point out is that people who have different experiences can have different beliefs based on what they have learned.
            The communist theory sounds good: From those according to their ability to those according to their need but the practically is that it is run by people and everyone has a different idea of “fair”.
            The early Christians tried communism but it brought so much discord about how it was implemented that it was abandoned.
            In the early 20th century communism in Russia was idealized by the intellectuals but the reality of what Lenin and Stalin were doing to the people of Russia was anything but ideal.
            I have friends who lived in Romania during communist rule, I knew people at school who had fled Hungary after the Russian had come in to restore order.
            My barber comes from the Ukraine. At first their was complete denial that there would be an invasions because the Ukrainians and Russians were brothers. Now she gets reports from relatives in Odessa about what is happening. It is clear the Russians do not consider the Ukrainians as brothers.
            All of them have a different opinion than you about Russia resulting from their experiences.
            You can talk about the Ukrainians being Nazis (Though I doubt any of them consider the Germans to be the master race>) but the problem started when the Russians in the Ukraine considered themselves to be Russian instead of Ukrainian.
            It reminds me of Yugoslavia where for 40 years Tito maintained a diverse country made up of historical enemies. When he died they became Serbians, Croatians, and other ethnic identities and the old hostilities came out because they had never disappeared.
            So while you may consider the Russians as the good guys I do not. The difference between a freedom fighter, terrorist, rebel, or patriot is a matter of perspective, not action.

            “You can talk about the Ukrainians being Nazis”
            Not the Ukrainians Herb, the western hives of no good intention that exist there. They are the Nazis.

            “Now she gets reports from relatives in Odessa about what is happening. It is clear the Russians do not consider the Ukrainians as brothers.”
            Do the relatives have the true story?
            When the Ukrainian forces were activated, it’s not as if Putin could say ” I’m not after you” is it? The Ukrainians will fight back regardless, and so one has to be ready for that

            Are the Ukrainian authorities as pristine as you think? They did allow this subterfuge to take place. The biological facilities do exist, so why weren’t they disbanded and dismantled. Why even allow them in the first place? How trustworthy can the Ukraine authorities be?
            In such case, aren’t the Ukrainians ‘friends from the West’, and their protectors, AKA the Ukrainian Govt etc, fair targets? They are part of the problem.

            “So while you may consider the Russians as the good guys I do not.”
            I have not said the Russians are the good guys. War is never good, but in some instances, one has no choice. That is what I say.

            What would you do in such a case, even in your own front yard, ignore it?

            Eewww. Barf!

            Why should Russians consider themselves Ukranian?

            Who founded and financed the major industrial cities? Who allowed Ukranians to settle in them? And now it belongs to them? Get real.

            Ukranian homeland is west, central, and partially northern Ukraine. Nothing else is theirs. They just parasitically acquired territory via stupid decisions of self-loathing anti-Russian COMMUNISTS. They got lucky, and it could’ve been theirs if they exerted a light touch. But they had to boast about it and mistreat the minority majority regions. They blew it.

            This whole “Russia was communist and therefore bad” trope is getting stale. They were communist, and now they are not. The West is heading into communism. Intelligent adults need foresight not hindsight! One shouldn’t condone past communist stupidity (Russia) while at the same time ally with future communist stupidity (The West).

      Herb,
      You forget that the main oppression in these countries came from THEIR OWN communists. Russia was often asked by these local tyrants to help. But it wasn’t that significant. Yeah these countries’ politicians hate Russia because it’s a great way to blame shift their own local culpability, and you’re playing into that.

      Remember, the only reason Russia was there was because of Germany. Did you forget?

      Well now they’re buddy buddy with their old enemy Germany. Let’s see how long that lasts!

        Hi Zoe,
        Russia drove tanks into Hungary when they rose up and into Chezcoslavakij when they chose a leader that they didn’t like. The only European communist leader they did not control was Tito in Yugoslavia.
        Ceausescu in Romania took all the income and sent it to Russia as debt payment, except the money he kept to build lavish palaces for himself. The people stood in line for hours to buy what little food there was and if anyone complained the omnipresent secret police took care of them. It was a country ruled by fear.
        People did not want to live in these poverty stricken countries with no hope or futures. The Berlin wall was built to keep the East Germans from fleeing, not to protect them from invasion. How many of their own citizens did they shoot to stop them from escaping?
        Germany and Russia were buddy buddy before the second world war when Hitler and Stalin divided Poland in a secret pact before the war began. When the Germans entered Ukraine they were greeted as liberators, until they did the Nazi thing and the Ukrainians learned they were just as bad as Stalin.
        It will be interesting to see what happens between Russia and China. They have fought a war over Manchuria, which China believes was part of Chine (the Manchurian dynasty). I’m wondering if by seeing the Russian performance n Ukraine, if they adopt the Russian concept that since most of the residents of Outer Manchuria are Hun Chinese both Outer and Inner Manchuria should both be part of China.

          “On 22 June 1941, Germany invaded the Soviet Union in Operation Barbarossa. Hungary joined the German effort and declared war on the Soviet Union on 26 June, and entered World War II on the side of the Axis.”

          So what do you expect? You attack first, you get punished. That’s how it works.

          “On 23 October 1956, the Secretary of the Hungarian Working People’s Party, Ernő Gerő, asked for the USSR’s military intervention in order “to suppress a demonstration that was reaching an ever-greater and unprecedented scale”, which threatens the national security of the People’s Republic of Hungary.”

          Oh, the local communists asked for the foreign communists to come in … exactly as I said.

    Putin’s presidency has hurt Russia, Ukraine and the world at large. The reason why Putin invaded Ukraine is known only to himself. As a human being Putin must suffer the psychological consequences of killing thousands of Ukrainians deliberately. This act has no precedence. Putin must not blame anyone internationally for this killing of innocent people. The blame ends at his door steps.

        Hi Zoe,
        Do you mean the Ukrainians should do to the Russians what the ‘Russians did to the Tartars when Ivan the Terrible conquered the area?
        People have a right to live in the political and economic system they want but not to impose their preferences on the country they chose. It was the Russians who decided that Crimea and the Donbass areas would be part of Ukraine even though the population was predominately Russian. Those Russians had an option to move into Russia and remain Russian or become Ukrainian. Everybody wants to have their cake and eat it but that is not an option.

          And the Tartars took it from somebody else.

          This establishes the right of conquest.

          Did Ukranians fight to get that land? No? Then why do they deserve it?

          Oh because Lenin and Brezhnev decided?

          That’s your philosophy? Communist borders are sacred?

          Ukrainians had a long time opporunity to take that land from the Tartars. They tried and failed. They couldn’t even secede from Poland/Lithuania without Russian help.

          The Soviet Union for all its faults did something never seen before … had a vote to allow smaller regions to leave. Russia has several autonomous zones. But Ukranians wouldn’t even allow one. These two things clearly demonstrate the LOWER moral character of Ukrainians. They are only out for themselves.

          My mother left Ukraine in 1982, because she figured out Ukranians were mostly crap. She even stopped speaking the language.

          When the war is over, the remaining parts will just be a western puppet state. A place for westerns to snatch young kids and prostitutes.

          They will quickly realize that of all the puppet status they had in history (Khazar, Mongolian, Polish, Lithuanian, Austria/Germany, Russian), they were actually treated best by the Russians. And the worst fate of all is to be a puppet of a DISTANT foreign regime that doesn’t give a damn about them and just wants to use them as a stick against a bigger power.

          Not unlike how Iraq was used against Iran.

          “Those Russians had an option to move into Russia and remain Russian or become Ukrainian.”

          Disgusting. Here’s a clue: the moment Canada removes Quebec’s autonomy is moment France will send in troops.

          If you think the Quebecois need to move to France because of a political decision … you are … well let’s just say … wrong!

      ‘,genocide on native people in ,NZ.Slavery,’
      Europeans never had slaves in NZ.
      The Natives in New Zealand kept slaves who were food on the hoof. . In a constant state of treachery and war. Conquer or be eaten.
      When there are no mammals for food, protein, life is difficult. Eat or be eaten. The same in the pacific Islands. Fiji was known as the Cannibal Islands.
      Read James Cook’s journals or James Cowan.
      Certainly avarice for land by colonists was rampant. True of all peoples. The natives conquered and ate their numerous enemies for survival.
      The Natives in NZ controlled family size by pressing the thumb into the top of the skull of the newborn. The environment could only sustain a couple of children.

    Must admit, I like Putin. He’s far more decency than the Nazi-loving Psychopaths we have, running our Entire Existence into the ground over here.
    But 2 points in particular, bother me deeply:

    1) Mr Putin’s direct links to the World Economic Forum, in particular the Young World Leaders group of which Klaus Schwab is so proud, especially with regard to Mr Putin.

    2) If Mr Putin was truly sincere, he would openly expose SARS CoV-2 / Covid-19 and Climate Change for the Frauds that they are, as opposed to allowing “Covid” restrictions and deadly injections to continue. Until such time, Mr Putin must be considered as just another Actor in this Great Reset Agenda 2030 charade.

    Can anyone comprehend the impact of a Public declaration, nullifying the Globalist’s twisted Agendas like that?
    The World would be his Oyster, so to speak.
    Until such time, NATO and the Western political parasites are virtually unstoppable.

    Eitherway, I hope he is true to his word, for the sake of the Russian people, at least?

    Thanks RT.
