Putin announced an attempt at revenge for the failures of Napoleon and Hitler

Some Russian “geopolitical ill-wishers” wanted revenge for the unsuccessful campaigns of Napoleon Bonaparte and Adolf Hitler. This statement was made by the head of the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin, at the meeting of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation on Tuesday, April 2.

“Russia, as you know, is in a difficult period of its history. This is clear to everyone. After the collapse of the USSR, our geopolitical ill-wishers set as their goal the complete destruction of what what remains of historical Russia, the complete collapse of its core, Russia, the Russian Federation, and the suppression of all that will remain of its geopolitical interests,” he said.

According to Putin, “someone is trying to maintain their hegemony in today’s rapidly changing world, including to the detriment of Russia.”

“Oddly, someone wants to take revenge for the failures in the fight against Russia in historical times, for the unsuccessful campaigns of Hitler against Russia, Napoleon, etc. There are many historical examples. Oddly, in the historical memory of the bad desire about which I said that many remain the same. I have experienced it, “said the Russian leader.

According to Vladimir Putin, the same “someone” considered the fragmentation of Russia possible and considered it a “weak link,” but, apparently, he was mistaken.

“This has never happened, no one has succeeded in this, it will never happen. No one can do it,” Putin assured.

Earlier, Vladimir Putin made a cynical statement that in 2014, the war in Ukraine seems to have been started by the United States, and not by Russia, which annexed Ukrainian Crimea and started a hybrid war in Donbass.
