Putin is my age. He's even 2 years younger than me. I know the realities of life in the years of our youth. In those days he lived in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg), and I'm in Moscow. We were born when Stalin died, when Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Andropov, Chernenko, Gorbachev and Yeltsin ruled. Honestly, since Stalin, the leaders of the country have been getting worse and worse (for their personal qualities and wisdom). How would you rate Khrushchev's trick when he, in spite of the Constitution and the law, just presented Crimea to Ukraine? Yeltsin was an alcoholic.Gorbachev was completely dependent on his wife, who was very fond of accepting expensive gifts from Western leaders. When Putin became the head of the country, then of course by magic nothing changed immediately. But every year we began to feel improvements in life, the implementation of many projects. From that moment on, the leadership of the United States and the European Union felt threatened in strengthening Russia. Here, systematic work began to create an image of the enemy. Russia was declared an outcast country, announced sanctions on the proposals, which they themselves organized.Unless without the help of the US and the European Union, a coup d'état took place in Ukraine and the authorities were captured by terry nationalists and fascist thugs. Is it because of Russia's fall on the territory of Ukraine passenger plane MH-17? Was it advantageous for Russia to poison the UK with the poisonous substance of the neuromuscular action of the former spy and his daughter. We are trying to assure that Russia is so treacherous that it is ready to do anything stupid to prove contempt for the West.This conclusion should be studied by psychiatrists for schizophrenia and pathological paranoia.
