Andrei Arkhangelsky: “The Putin man is a Soviet man with no ideological burden. Fighting for nothing, plus naked hatred, plus envy – everything. Ukraine became Putin’s own hate point, but anyone could have been in its place. The Putin regime has conceptualized this communal hatred of its neighbor: piss in her soup! This is the ideology the Kremlin uses. You can not say that this is a war for territory. It is a war for the sake of the war – to make it happen. And what drives Putin’s Russia, besides hatred, is the lust for death. What we see is mass suicide. Self-extinction of the people”.
