Putin thinks he’s reasoning w reasonable people, but those people are driven by murderous blood-thirsty greed, not reason.
The West doesn't understand diplomacy. It only understands supremacy.
This might be the angriest and most frustrated that I've ever seen Alex on any subject from more than 3 years of watching Duran videos. And, I have to admit, I share the irritation that he and the Russian people feel with the American leadership class.
Alex contributions today are exceptional 👏
I think it´s more complicated. In most European countries Vladimir Putin is described as a bloodthirsty dictator who wants the war to continue, that he enjoys the blood spilt and is planning to invade Europe. People are stupid and actually believe it. Even well educated people believe it. Which for me is unbeliavable. And scary.
Neither Israel nor the USA nor Britain will ever stop trying to destroy Russia. Do not trust their lies!
United States only understands military force not diplomacy.
I am afraid that Putin is seen by Trump as too polite and too smart... I agree with Alex..Russia must send an unequivocal message.
As long as London and Washington exist, there will never be peace on the planet.
