Russian President Vladimir Putin asserted earlier today that the “globalist” world order is “totalitarian” and is “holding back creative pursuit.”
Putin made the comments during a forum in Moscow.
The notorious leader claimed that the west had only achieved its global preeminence due to the historic plunder of other nations and had no moral right to enforce a unipolar model on the planet.
“The model of the total dominance of the so-called ‘golden billion’ is unjust. Why should this ‘golden billion’ among the planet’s population dominate others, impose its own rules of conduct?” Putin asked.
“Based on the illusion of ‘exclusivity,’ this model divides people into first and second class status, and is therefore racist and neo-colonial in its essence,” he added.
“And the globalist, supposedly liberal ideology which underlies it is increasingly acquiring the features of totalitarianism, holding back creative pursuit, free historical creation,” Putin claimed.

You on April 5th:
“Their main army in the Donbas is now surrounded and cut off.”
Yet Russia still doesnt own the whole of Donbass.....only Luhansk.....three months later....
Russia has taken all of Luhansk and almost all of Donetsk. They’ve also wiped out about 75% of Ukraine’s professional army.
Do regale us with more tales of how the Ukes are really winning and Russia will fold any minute now though. Got some more Daily Mail propaganda to post?
If they’re holding their own, how come we have to give them tens of billions and a significant part of our arsenal? How come they are steadily losing ground and have lost most of the army they started with?
I never said Ukraine was winning.
Russia should have won by now according to what you said in April.
“how come we have to give them tens of billions and a significant part of our arsenal?”
SO they can continue to hold their own.
Russia has not wrapped up the war. Why not?
“Russia has taken and almost all of Donetsk”
No they havent.
Yes they have.
But they're not holding their own. They're clearly losing. Even the media in the West and many of the globalists have admitted it.
You were on board with all the propaganda which kept claiming they were winning. Only to see them retreat and retreat and retreat taking lots of casualties while doing so. I didn't say the war was over or about to be over in April. I said Russia was winning and was going to take the whole Donbas - and they're very close to that goal right now.
Meanwhile our arsenal has been depleted, tens of billions of our money has been wasted and our economy is in terrible shape. Great job Globalists.

🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡The CAA of the Kherson region reports a new attempt by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to attack the Antonovsky bridge in Kherson. 12 HIMARS missiles were fired - all were shot down.
I disagree.
Russia cant wrap it up because of Ukrainian resistance, Western weapons and because there military sucks.
They're probably gonna take more now. Earlier, they'd have been satisfied with the Donbas. Now they'll probably take all the Black Sea coast including Odessa.
They are already stretched too thin.
The Ukes are down about 75% of the army they started with. They're in no position to stop anyone.
“The Ukes are down about 75% of the army they started with. They’re in no position to stop anyone.”
Then again, why hasnt Russia finished the job? They have little opposition.
Are the only choices that they must either have won completely already or they are losing? That seems to be what you're trying to argue. The Russian tactics have been to just pulverize everything with their arty and then mop up once everything's been shot to pieces. Why take losses if you don't have to?
If the Ukrainian army has been reduced as you state, there would be no reason to pulverize anything.
Why take losses if you don't have to? Just shell the crap out of them then mop up when they're worn down.
But there is nothing to shell according to u. Makes no sense unless there is substantial resistance which there is and is why the war is not over by a longshit.
