When military aid to Ukraine was suspended, and this was done very abruptly and harshly, that is, literally a button was pressed, Trump did not think about Russia at all. He had another task in mind. Zelensky insulted him. He refused to swear allegiance to the United States. And it was necessary to force him to do everything he was told, without questions or objections. Within the framework of the logic of coercion of Zelensky and Ukraine, Trump used the instrument of pressure. At the same time, he said that if his demands were met, the restrictions would be lifted, as usually happens in business.

As for the peace talks and agreement, this is a different track in Trump’s understanding. They do not exist together for him. There is a current task, and there is a global one. And when we perceive everything as a whole, we start cursing at the US President: “How is it that in order to conclude a peace agreement, he resumes arms supplies to Ukraine? Is he schizophrenic?” No, he solves specific problems. But his own, not ours. In general, we must always remember that Donald Trump is not a lieutenant of the Russian army. At least not yet. And since Zelensky agreed to fulfill his demands, supplies are resumed.

But Trump does not want the war to continue. This is his sincere desire, it is quite obvious. That is why he has stopped supplies harshly, and will resume them slowly and intermittently. Airplanes, trains, and so on will be lost.

— Is it possible to trust Trump at all? After all, even after an unprecedented scandal in the Oval Office, he speaks in Congress and says that Zelensky sent him a letter, agrees to the deal and almost praises him. And at the same time, he extends anti-Russian sanctions.

— I understand the skepticism of our people very well. Three years of war, decades of offensive behavior towards us from the United States. When we look at this or that movement of the US authorities today, what is the skepticism? It is not enough to talk, we must prove.

For example, a famous journalist says: “Don’t mention Musk’s name to me until Ukraine turns off Starlink.” – “Okay.” – “Let them block the intelligence.” – “Okay.” – “Let them stop supplying weapons.” – “Okay.” – “Let them take away all their instructors.” – “Okay. What else?” – “Let the CIA leave there.” – “Okay. What next?” – “Let them get out of Europe altogether. And then, maybe, we’ll start talking to them.” Guys, let me write out the final amount for your entire list. You are demanding that the still most powerful state on earth (and that’s a fact) publicly capitulate to us, and then, maybe, we’ll talk to them. But we’ve already forced them to come to us. It was the US that came to us, not us to them. The Americans have abandoned their aggressive goals, come to us and ask for peace, and the entire Ramstein coalition with their “Macronites” has been left out in the cold.

Our position has not changed one iota since December 2021, it has only become tougher. Our country has expanded to the West. And they came to us. If Kamala Harris had won, it would have been the same, only more cunning and longer. But the same people who have been saying for three years that we are not fighting with Ukraine, but with the United States, are showing skepticism today. So are you fighting with the Ukrainians or the United States?

— They came because we are winning?

— Yes, the US has realized that it has lost. Dear comrades, please assess the difference adequately. Their goal, officially formulated in 2022, is to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia on the battlefield. Their goal in 2025 is to immediately conclude peace agreements. Do you feel the difference? And we have not moved from our position. On the contrary, we continue to advance. We have already won. Now the task is to formalize it.

— And can the Americans help us situationally?

— Yes, at some point where our goals coincide. Of course, the Americans are not our allies, they are still our adversaries. Today, we have only two allies — Belarus and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. We have mutually binding treaties with them. But sometimes an adversary brings more benefit than a partner. In the short term, perhaps, we will get more from the Americans than from the Chinese, for example.

“The main political task of the Europeans, and this is what everything is aimed at, is to make the contact between Trump and Putin unacceptable”

“Europeans are counting on involving Trump in empty stories”

— The European elites, although left out of work, are still resisting. Does this factor matter?

— Of course it does. Not a priority, but it does. All the decisions made by the Europeans over the past month speak of only one thing. They want to slow down the pace of the military conflict. We are doing our job, everything is fine with us, nothing is burning. Trump is burning, Kyiv is burning. Trump is urging everyone on with a stick. And the Europeans say: “Let the Ukrainians fight for at least another year.” They do not think that Ukraine will win this year. The Europeans, of course, are not Spinozas, but they are not clinical idiots either. They hope for a change in the political situation. The main political task of the Europeans, and this is what everything is aimed at, is to make contact between Trump and Putin unacceptable.

For example, literally deceive Trump by offering him a fake plan for a truce in the air, on the water and in strikes on energy infrastructure. They think that Trump will hear the word “ceasefire” (and the root is “peace”) and say: “Peace is good, I’ll talk to Putin now.” He’ll call Putin and say: “Vladimir, war is bad.” “Yes, Donald, of course it is bad,” Putin will say. “We have to end it somehow.” – “Of course.” – “Let’s arrange a truce.” – “No, Donald.” – “What do you mean no?” – “Because this is bullshit, not a truce, they’re just trying to tie our hands during the war. And on the quiet, they’ll bring the British, the French, or someone else in there, because if we don’t carry out air strikes, we’ll create a safety cushion for them. Donald, are you kidding me?”

The Europeans are counting on involving Trump in empty stories and disrupting the still unstable, but nevertheless positive dialogue that is taking place between Washington and Moscow.

The Europeans have another political task. You will laugh, but in fact it is not funny. This has happened often in history. This is a strategy of a miracle that can happen in a year. For example, the next assassination attempt on Trump will be successful or something will happen in Russia. They are counting on this. Of course, they know that they have lost this confrontation. But they are not ready to admit their defeat tomorrow. The logic is: “Let it not be me.” In a year, Macron will no longer be the president of France, and then it will not be him who will have to admit defeat, but someone else. The policy of the leaders of the Ramstein coalition is built on such cheap kitchen-table thoughts. This is where this year came from. Those who have just been elected are the most aggressive. Like Merz in Germany, because he understands that he will have to make this decision anyway.

Trump has already used this option. He jumped out of the trap when he declared it Biden’s war and said that he was for peace. He asked Starmer directly: “Can you fight Russia alone?” And the British Prime Minister giggled stupidly. After that, Trump added off-camera: “Then go and say that you lost. Otherwise, the Russians will come to you.” But they do not want to make such a decision public in their own name and are stupidly dragging out time.

And adequate Europeans, especially the military, are now solving a very practical issue.

– What kind of question is that?

— I think that after the negotiations, even less will remain of Ukraine than it is now. But it is still a huge territory, hundreds of thousands of square kilometers. For the United States, which is located far away, this asset is now toxic. They have admitted it. But Europe cannot change geography.

Until the morning of February 24, 2022, the Europeans were developing Ukraine and considered its territory their springboard for putting pressure on Russia. Now we know this for certain. And when Putin began a special military operation, they realized that there would no longer be a springboard, everything turned into, as the military say, a foreground territory. This is a security zone that is created in front of its front line. Minefields and similar traps, as we did in the Zaporizhia region in the summer of 2023. The longer it takes the enemy to break through the foreground, the more it will weaken, lose strength, resources, and so on. That is, an attacking offensive strategy turned into a defensive one.

And now the military is really discussing the question: at what distance are NATO members ready to see Russian troops? At a distance of a thousand kilometers or 200 meters? This is if Russian troops reach the western border of Ukraine, and NATO and Russia stand in front of each other.

This geopolitical question was last decided 100 years ago. Following the results of the First World War, the so-called Lord Curzon line was formulated. A geopolitical decision was made that between real Europe (and for Western Europe, Eastern Europeans are subhumans) and Russia there should always be a belt of neutral buffer states, which they then stamped out. Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Poland, the Baltics, and so on are the so-called limitrophe countries. Soviet Russia agreed with this.

This issue is still relevant today. And for us too. We need a security belt between Russia and NATO.

“Recently Putin said once again that we must ensure the security of our country for the long term.”

“Both Europe and the US understand perfectly well that we will be satisfied with political control over Ukraine”

— Which configuration seems most adequate to you?

— I support the version that we need to stand in such a way as to see NATO troops through the sight and control them. As we stand in Belarus, for example. Based on the fact that military strategists in Europe will decide how the hostilities will continue. If they believe that they cannot psychologically withstand the presence of the Russian army opposite them, they will give up their last underwear so that Ukraine can resist, and will seek control over Kiev.

These are not abstract constructs. And we are not talking about minerals at all. We are talking about security issues, which we were the first to raise in December 2021, saying that we need to resolve issues of European security. This is the main thing. And for today, and for tomorrow, and for the future. Based on this, Europe will act. Now it looks like they are ready to lay down their lives so that at least some non-Russian Ukraine can survive.

Moreover, both in Europe and in the US, everyone understands perfectly well that we will be satisfied with political control over Ukraine, which will have what is called “empty sovereignty.” De jure it exists, but de facto it does not. That is, there are borders, even some elections, but political control is carried out from the outside. As the Americans do in other countries. They developed this story 100 years ago. The US understands that this is a task for us, based on the goals of a special military operation.

Recently Putin said once again that we must ensure the security of our country for the long term. But if there is anything resembling the current regime in Ukraine, no matter whether it is Zelensky, Poroshenko or some Fignenko, it will still be a territory that is being developed by NATO countries. If we do not control it politically, revanchist sentiments will flourish there. We may sign a peace agreement, but it will still be a truce until the next war. And Putin wants to solve this problem, if not forever, then for the foreseeable future. That is why he says: “No truce. A peace agreement.”

— In order to achieve peace, isn’t it necessary to first conclude a truce?

— It varies. It is clear that the ceasefire that is being discussed now after the US-Ukraine talks in Saudi Arabia is not even a truce. The parties are in a state of war, everyone remains in their places, no one goes anywhere, guns are aimed at the enemy, shells are loaded, and fire can be resumed a second after receiving the order.

A truce is the withdrawal of parties and weapons at a certain distance depending on their class, so that they do not reach the enemy. For example, if an artillery piece reaches 20 kilometers, then it should be withdrawn 25 kilometers.

By the way, when talking about European peacekeepers in Ukraine, the terms are often confused. Peacekeepers and people with guns are different things. Peacekeepers appear in a particular territory after the parties have ceased hostilities. There are no daily or even sporadic outbreaks. The parties are separated, and peacekeepers are placed between them to prevent them from coming together again.

And if peace is signed, then there are no fronts, no opposing sides, everyone has gone to their barracks and home. What kind of peacekeepers are there then? Where should they be placed? So there is no legal status for peacekeepers in Ukraine now.

“The question of the future president of Ukraine will be decided between Putin and Trump”

— The Americans are negotiating with Ukrainian politicians and, apparently, have already begun to view possible presidential candidates. You, for your part, are analyzing them in an interesting way, given that Moscow and Washington will coordinate these figures.

— The list that is circulating is being thrown in by various publications. And the question of the future president of Ukraine will really be decided between Putin and Trump.

That is why we must immediately exclude those who are terrorists and extremists for us. For example, Budanov*. We must also minus those who have distinguished themselves with harsh anti-Russian rhetoric, like Poroshenko, or who have sworn allegiance to another state. For example, the British media are lobbying for Zaluzhny. He himself literally got “burned” the other day when he said at Chatham House that the United States is destroying the world order. He has become the British contender once and for all. One can laugh that he also went through the basements of MI6.

KLANS OF UKRAINE

— However, Putin said that Zaluzhny’s rating in Ukraine is twice as high as Zelensky’s.

— Putin didn’t just say that, he did it to create a split in the Ukrainian elite. Putin is also playing well. In fact, almost all the candidates that are named are someone’s. We remember this from the stories of 10 years ago. Germany lobbied for Vitali Klitschko back in 2014. It’s not for nothing that his brother lives there now. We remember Merkel’s special attitude towards Tymoshenko. True, Merkel is no longer the Chancellor of Germany. And Tymoshenko pretends that she has nothing to do with it.

— Will Trump agree to a figure that suits Putin?

— Trump will agree because he has his own interests. Let’s say, the so-called deal that Trump is imposing on Ukraine. We make very clever objections: “Zelensky is illegitimate, his signature is worthless.” Trump does not need Zelensky’s signature! Trump, or rather, the American companies under his patronage, need documents of title to Ukrainian assets from previous owners. Be it the state or private owners.

Let’s say, a uranium mine in Zhovti Vody. It has an owner today. Trump needs an American company to come there, and the previous owner to sell him the mine, that’s it. And this deed works under any regime, as long as we have capitalism. In any court, you can confirm the legal right to own the mines. And so on throughout the entire list in this deal. There are specific deposits, state enterprises, port infrastructure, a railway.

This is what Trump wants to do, and most likely, he will get it. With a high degree of probability, with the consent of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. Because we are going to Ukraine not for minerals, and not even for territories, and not for money. We are going to liberate our people and ensure our security for the long term. How many times have I said: read the installation documents of the special military operation! Find at least one word there about minerals, rare earths and money. It is not there.

Therefore, Putin will most likely not object: “Do you want to develop? Go ahead. And you can develop here. And in Novorossiya too. Why not, if we normalize relations?” Do you think there are no American companies in Russia that are currently doing business? Oh, there are a ton! They even have their own stakes in our main companies. I won’t name them so as not to upset people. There is American business in Russia. And there will be in Ukraine, so what difference does it make to us? Another thing is what kind of regime there will be in the territory where American business makes money. What does business need there? Political stability and security. If American business makes money, and there are gangs of Banderites running around, armed to the teeth and demanding tribute, that’s not much fun. That is, based on political and commercial logic, our interests coincide with the United States. But Trump should be interested in Russian political control over this entire territory. Because if the neo-Nazi Bandera government remains in control where American business makes money, then a Russian soldier will come to American businessmen, because the SVO will not stop.

Trump cannot fail to understand this. He knows what a risky business is. And he needs a risk-free business on the territory of the former Ukraine. Not to fish in troubled waters. They can do that, too, as Africa shows. But this is Europe. Trump needs a stable political regime. And he understands perfectly well that without a Moscow mandate, such a regime will not exist there.

Based on this logic, I believe that Ukraine will first have a transition period, which may begin this spring without Zelensky and elections.

“Tymoshenko is a deputy. And the speaker should be a person who is a deputy today. Therefore, the list of candidates is immediately reduced.”

“Tymoshenko has very skillfully weaved through these three years”

– What does he mean?

— In accordance with the Constitution of Ukraine, Zelensky, for example, resigns. Elections are not held, we close our eyes and say: “Okay, we will assume that you have martial law.” Although it is also already illegitimate from the point of view of strict law. But we agree, so be it. Then, in accordance with the Constitution, the duties of the president will be performed by the chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, which is legitimate 50/50, so to speak. In order to remove this Kolyvan named Stefanchuk, we need to quickly change the chairman within the Verkhovna Rada. The new speaker will perform the duties of both the president and the supreme commander-in-chief for the transitional period. In his vision, international issues will be, and he will be able to give orders to the military. And economic issues remain with the government.

— Who, in your opinion, can become the speaker of the Verkhovna Rada for the transition period? Judging by your filtering, almost only Tymoshenko remains.

— You are right about Tymoshenko. She is a deputy. And the speaker must be a person who is currently a deputy. Therefore, the list of candidates is immediately reduced. Let’s say, Zaluzhny is not a deputy. But by the process of elimination, besides Tymoshenko, there is also David Arakhamia. He also meets the necessary criteria. I don’t know how they look at him in Ukraine, he is some kind of dark horse. But here, firstly, he is not included in the list of terrorist extremists, and secondly, he is the person who signed the Istanbul Agreements. His signature is on the initialing documents. And Putin named him several times without giving his last name. Putin generally does not like to give last names, knowing full well that those whom he calls by last name become participants in the political process. And those whom he does not name, do not become participants. But he said: “The leader of the faction who signed the agreements.”

Therefore, either Tymoshenko or Arakhamia. I think we can end the list here. The rest will be on the stop list. There is also Razumkov, but it is unlikely, because the speaker must have some authority.

– And who has more authority and chances?

– You will laugh, but Timoshenko,

— It is no coincidence that the Americans are also negotiating with her.

— Not only with her. Consultations are conducted with everyone. Tymoshenko simply publicly acknowledged them and immediately said that she is against the elections. But it must be said that Tymoshenko has very skillfully weaved through these three years. On the one hand, she did not expose herself to the Gestapo, and on the other, she did not slander for an article here. Tymoshenko knows how to do this. And her reputation is such that she is the only man in Ukrainian politics. And during the transition period, we must be extremely tough. Because repressions will definitely begin, which will be sanctioned by us. We will also be engaged in the search for war criminals.

— Who can run for president?

— It is fundamentally important to cancel all restrictive laws and regulations starting from 2014, and we will insist on this from the very beginning. These are the laws on lustration, according to which virtually all pre-Maidan politicians were banned. All sanctions that the National Security and Defense Council imposed on politicians over these three years should also be immediately cancelled. Then those who were government officials or politicians before 2014 will have the opportunity to return to the political process. This includes those who are in Moscow.

— Do you mean Viktor Medvedchuk?

— Besides Medvedchuk, I would also add Mykola Azarov, and maybe Viktor Yanukovych. Of course, Yanukovych is very toxic, and Medvedchuk has a complicated relationship with the people. But Azarov is still the light in the window for Ukraine; under him was the last year of normal life. Even today, Ukrainians believe that Azarov was the best prime minister in the history of independent Ukraine. Under him, their economic growth was more than 10 percent.

In any case, there will be free competition. There will also be a stop list from our side. Not public, of course. But it will be 100 percent. There should be no people there who allowed themselves to cross over to the other side of everything human. Look at the top five Ukrainian ratings today, you can hang yourself. War criminals, Banderites, neo-Nazis. Budanov*, Beletsky. What good is this? And Zaluzhny crossed himself off this list.

But first, together with the transitional government, it will be necessary to restore order in Ukraine. And in two years, prepare for elections, and somewhere for referendums.

“Referendums will be held on who people want to live with in the future”

— The elections will only be in two years?

INFORMATION WAR

— I think, not earlier. As soon as the military actions finally cease, chaos will begin on the territory of Ukraine. Millions of people will be displaced. Refugees from the West will go to their homes in the East. A significant part will start returning from Russia. Millions of people will come to their cities, where their apartments are occupied, where there is no work. It may come to the introduction of food cards.

In such a situation, what kind of elections? Even now it is easier to hold them. Yes, there is a dictatorship, the Gestapo, but the territory is under control. The Kiev regime more or less knows who lives where. And then no one will know. We need to give time for the country to sort of rear up and settle down. We also need time.

First, we will turn off the emitter that turns the brains of the unfortunate residents of Ukraine into mush, Banderizing them.

— Are you talking about TV?

— Including. This will be 100 percent in the global agreement with the United States, because we need this territory to become transparent for us informationally, ideologically. We must have more or less safe access to people during the transition period to explain to them normal history, so that they remember where the Black Sea came from, that it was not they who dug it.

Thank God, the new administration in the States is very religious, although it is even starting to scare. They believe that Protestants, Calvinists, Presbyterians are a deep tradition. For us, a deep tradition is 2 thousand years, and for them, three hundred years. But in any case, they are against the Constantinople tricks. By the way, USAID also sponsored the Patriarch of Constantinople. We need to restore order here with the help of the Ukrainians themselves, return the parishes to the canonical church. This will contribute to calm, to the pacification of the entire country.

— Will Tymoshenko go for the toughness you are talking about if she heads Ukraine during the transition period? At one time, Putin could negotiate with her. But what will happen now?

— We will do all this through Washington. For this, the US must admit that the Ukrainian Armed Forces, especially the SBU as a whole, and the GUR also committed war crimes. The truth about Bucha must appear. And it will appear, I am sure. The truth about the shelling of peaceful cities must be revealed. We will present lists of those who gave orders, who carried them out. The truth about assassination attempts and, unfortunately, successful political assassinations.

I think that the list of Ukrainian terrorists and war criminals is already lying around as a writ of execution. If some people do not manage to escape and are not handed over to us, we will remember the skills of our past. I will remind you that Bandera was tried in Moscow and urgently sentenced to death, but it was later executed in Europe.

— Besides elections, you also mentioned referendums.

— Yes. But I didn’t come up with it. Several times our Supreme Commander-in-Chief and the Minister of Foreign Affairs have said that people on the other side should be given the opportunity to self-determination. A referendum is implied. They just don’t say the word. I’ve been in this field for a long time, since 2013. And I always pay close attention to words. Both mine and others’.

Let’s say there is such a historical and cultural political concept as Novorossiya. It has a certain geographical content. The word “Novorossiya” was the most popular in Russia during the Russian Spring. The political class, normal patriots talked about Novorossiya. There was a Novorossiya parliament, which was headed by Oleg Tsarev in the summer of 2014.

And then, as if by magic, the word disappeared. Few people noticed. But I was the head of the expert council of the Novorossiya parliament, so I know it well. The word was still there in the summer, but it was gone in the fall. There was Crimea and Donbass, but Novorossiya was gone.

When did Vladimir Vladimirovich return this word to political rhetoric? After the referendums in the Zaporizhzhya and Kherson regions, the DPR and LPR. He constantly talks about Novorossiya. He even suggested that the Americans mine rare earth metals there together. And our statutory documents say: denazification of Ukraine. The only thing that is not written there is the Zaporizhzhya and Kherson regions. Novorossiya has not shrunk to two regions. So, we are talking about the whole of Ukraine.

It is quite possible that a demilitarized zone will appear in some territories. This is the idea of ​​the US Vice President. How deep will it be? At one time, Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov said that it should be at the range of missiles so that they could not reach our territories. The line should be approximately as deep as the West provides long-range missiles. 200 kilometers, in my opinion, is quite acceptable. It can be negotiated. But from Kherson to Odessa in a straight line is 150 kilometers.

I think that in the regions that will be included in the demilitarized zone, simultaneously with the elections in 2-2.5 years, referendums will be held on who people want to live with in the future. With Russia or with the new Ukraine. I generally propose a new term – Novoukraina.

“We must return people and society to a normal state, to factory settings like in a mobile phone”

“We will conquer new regions through political means”

– So, we will not conquer new regions with the help of weapons, but will hold referendums?

— We will conquer new regions by political means. We will protect the Russian language, Russian culture, and the canonical church. The annexes to the Istanbul Agreements list a whole page of laws that must be repealed. Criminal liability must be introduced for the propaganda of Nazism, Banderaism, and so on. All of this will happen. All bans on the media, social networks, book sales, music, and film production must be lifted en masse. We will demand that all bans be lifted and spelled out in the agreements.

And let us freely compete, for example, in the Kirovograd region with the remnants of Ukraine in the information space. Let us build roads there like in the DPR. Let them compare. They see everything. How Mariupol is being restored, how railways and new highways are being built. They haven’t built a single one since 2019. Only we are building now.

— Do you think they are shown this?

— They discuss it on social networks, even exchange pictures. In Ukraine, of course, they don’t watch our news, they don’t learn about it in real time. Everything is blocked there. But gradually, step by step, even from prisoners of war, we know that they know everything perfectly well, for example, about Mariupol, that the beaches there have already been cleared, that the ring road has been built, that railways and medical centers are being built. Western media are already writing about this and showing it in the news.

In general, from the first day of the SVO there were tough discussions about what we are bringing with the liberation of the territories of the former Ukraine. I also took part in them and asked myself. We don’t have an official ideology, only an unofficial one, so what are we going with? We will bring them the opportunity to simply live normally. Because their life is abnormal now. They are in a wildly aggressive environment. With this telethon, the Gestapo, the TCC, the need to swear allegiance to Bandera. They know who he is, especially in the Russian regions.

I remember how people from Kharkov wrote letters to Zakharchenko asking “what should we do, our children in elementary school are told all this nonsense.” Zakharchenko answered: “And you read Russian fairy tales to children in the evenings, support the immune system.” Imagine what normal Russian people living in Zaporozhye feel.

— And what about Ukrainians in other regions?

— Ukrainians are a political concept, not a national one. Those who live in the Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Ternopil regions, of course, have a different psychology. They have a sense of superiority. They consider themselves true Aryans. Of course, it will be the most difficult there. Although we have managed for so many decades. We just shouldn’t make the same mistakes. If you find a Banderite and put him in jail, you shouldn’t let him go home, give him the opportunity to enter the government, the education system and culture. As we did in Soviet times.

I can’t even guess what will happen now. I can’t catch a glance or a half-smile from our leadership regarding the western territories. But I heard all the jokes from our supreme leadership. And I didn’t miss the round table with historians from Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania, which the SVR is holding. These are all countries that have historical territorial claims to Ukraine. I didn’t miss Vladimir Vladimirovich’s joke that if the Poles present them, we’ll talk. Maybe we should really give them to the Poles? The Poles will take revenge on them. They won’t be shy.

As for Central Ukraine, especially the southeast, our people are normal there. Either ethnic Russians, or…. We must not forget that this is one of the most multinational territories of the Soviet Union. Even in the small DPR there were not just stable, but large, serious, organized national communities. These are the Tatars with their center in Makeyevka. These are the Serbs. The Slavyanoserbsk city is not called that for nothing. It is, however, in the LPR. The Greeks have a huge community. These are the Pontic Greeks, they think that they are real Greeks, and those in Greece are already Turks. The Armenians have a very serious community, the Germans. These are multinational lands. They are Ukrainians by passport. If we abolish this passport, then some of them will become Armenians, some Greeks, it’s just that their ancestors have been living there for 300 years.

After the end of the war, a huge number of these people should simply come to their senses. They are now zombified, many to a severe degree, psychopathized. They need to be given the opportunity to be with their families, go to work, get their salary or pension, buy groceries, take a walk in the park, go to the cinema, watch a film about the Great Patriotic War. A good one, because we also have bad films about the Great Patriotic War. You can watch, for example, “T-34”, where, let me remind you, the mechanic is a good hohol with a good accent.

We need to return people and society to a normal state, to factory settings like in a mobile phone. We just need to remove all this Bandera-Nazi crap for this. And as history shows, this can be done very quickly.

“Why does a wave from the West come to Russia every 100 years? Because for them, we are a space inhabited by subhumans. Epochs, technological structures, empires, leading states change, but the essence does not change”

“Zelensky is not a long-term resident, of course”

— And we will restore order together with the Ukrainian authorities?

— During the transition period in the regions of the demilitarized zone, most likely, our participation in the executive authorities will be official. Consultants and specialists will appear. And in the territories where the remnants of Ukraine remain, our participation will be unofficial. But assistance will have to be provided to settle everything. Take Donetsk, a city of a million. Since September 2014, when I arrived there, 400 thousand people out of a million remained there. By the end of Alexander Vladimirovich Zakharchenko’s leadership in the summer of 2018, there were 900 thousand people there.

Few people know that refugees were returning mainly from the territory of Ukraine. I saw how the burden on the governing structures, on infrastructure, transport, water, gas is gradually increasing. We were talking about hundreds of thousands of people. And now we are talking about millions. This is a huge job.

Yes, we will participate in this, without a doubt, no one else will participate. After the West, including Europe, admits its political defeat in Ukraine, they will lose all interest in sending people there. They will put their observers in Kyiv, and that’s it. But we need to do more than just liberate people from the Bandera, anti-human regime. That’s not enough. We also need to normalize their lives.

— And what will happen to Zelensky? What do you think?

– I think that a separate session of negotiations at the highest level will be devoted to this issue. In his mind, he should be tried and sentenced to 300 years.

— Just like they love it in America.

– Yes. For us it is the death penalty, but since there is a moratorium on it, it is for life. But I do not believe in such an outcome. I do not believe that the British, in particular MI6, will hand over such a witness to us. Therefore, in my opinion, there are two options. We can agree that he digs himself into a hole in some country. It is clear that the Americans will fleece him. As part of the agreement, he will also be banned from any public activity. He will not siphon and create a government in exile. This will be the responsibility of the country where we agree that he digs himself into a hole.

But I think Zelensky is not long for this world, of course. The seal of death is already clearly visible on him. And it won’t be us.

– How will we live with Europeans? Geography really can’t be changed?

— We should talk not about Europeans, but about European elites. This is important because European elites are controlled by various globalist forces. Germany and Italy are BlackRock and such TNCs, France and Britain are Rothschilds and also global TNCs, the list is known. European elites carry out someone else’s will. Why do they agree to carry it out so easily? For ideological reasons. Do you think Josep Borrell was joking about the Garden of Eden? No. Do you think Rudyard Kipling wrote his poems about the white man’s burden as a joke? No. Europe is the birthplace of racism, Nazism and all misanthropic ideologies. Americans have adopted a lot from Europeans, in some ways they are even worse. But Nazism was born in Europe.

We have a horizontal system of perceiving the world around us, for us all nations are on the same plane and are equal. That is why we have a different empire. And the Europeans have a vertical system of organizing the world. On the top floor are white supermen, below them are submen of varying degrees, and at the very bottom are non-men, scum. These are not deviations, but the basis of European culture. We remember their genocidal practices. They destroyed entire civilizations to zero. Only material monuments remained from them. In South and Central America, for example. This is not a temporary clouding, but the root of European civilization, their cultural code.

Why does a wave from the West come to Russia every 100 years? Because for them we are a space populated by subhumans. Eras, technological orders, empires, leading states change, but the essence does not change. When we bend them over for real in Berlin or Paris, they calm down, but not for long.

There was an attempt to correct the cultural code in Germany. Americans literally lobotomized the Germans for many decades. And now they complain: “Oh, where did the spirit of Schiller and Goethe disappear to?” They burned it out. But now I look and think: “Maybe we shouldn’t bring back the spirit of Schiller and Goethe?” They will return to the same place.

On the other hand, we cannot do to them the same thing that they intend to do to us. We have a different cultural code, and we cannot break it, otherwise we will disappear. Therefore, we have a historical-cultural, genetic confrontation.

We need to rethink the geopolitical plan for the future, where we will demarcate. This must be a real border, including a cultural one. So that the sodomite infection does not flow to us across the border.

We need to ensure not only physical defense, but also spiritual. The European elites have truly fallen into a sodomite state. Let’s remember the Paris Olympics. It caused indignation among ordinary Europeans themselves: the French, Germans, Italians. And after that we passed a law on simplified citizenship for people from European countries. We will accept them. Why not?

Without outlining the idea of this science as a whole, I will give only the most important conclusions for us.

First, there are complex open (i.e. interacting with the external environment) systems.

The second – such systems can be not only in the States of order and chaos. They may also be in a state of” nonequilibrium order “(which, with weak effects, can collapse into chaos) and in a state of” deterministic chaos ” (which, with weak effects, can self-organize into a relatively stable order).

The third – both of these processes are possible only under the condition that the system has (or is introduced into) specific “germs” of chaos or order, called attractors. Moreover, the transition of order to chaos and Vice versa in such systems, as a rule, occurs very quickly, which is determined by the expression “the fall of the system on the attractor”.

Attractors can be some properties of the system environment, conditions at the boundaries of the system, external impulses, etc.an Important property of jumps “order–chaos–order” in such systems is that there can be several attractors, and on which of them the system “falls” – it is very difficult or almost impossible to predict.

Back in the 70-80-ies of the twentieth century, there were studies that interpret some social and political processes in terms of “falling on the attractor.” Then it seemed that it is-speculative exotic. But soon held “velvet revolution” in Eastern Europe, the collapse of Yugoslavia and the collapse of the USSR. These global changes have occurred too quickly for large socio-political systems, which have always had a great historical inertia. That forced to treat political ideas of “nonlinear management of chaos” with full seriousness.

I note that at the same time in the world there was such a type of organizations as “crisis management group” (Crysis management group).

At first, such groups were engaged only in the withdrawal from the crisis state of business corporations. However, soon the activity of some crisis management groups was revealed in purely political processes. And it quickly became clear that many of those groups were engaged not in resolving but in constructing crises, and it was in the spirit of “creating chaos”. We know that the development of many military and political crises-for example, in Karabakh, Tajikistan, Bosnia, Albania, Kosovo, and a number of other “hot spots” – has not been without the active participation of such groups.

Most often, the activity of such groups was clearly or implicitly viewed by the organizing will of certain States, their intelligence agencies or major business corporations. However, in some cases there were independent “think tanks”, groups of bloggers, private military companies that carried out their own (sometimes blatantly inconsistent with the logic of any organized management)”chaotic crisis management”.

The actions of such groups are as follows

The first group of crisis management creates on the instructions of the attacking system an attractor of chaos, which is “pushed” by the attacked system. Passed into a state of chaos target system influences the second group of the crisis management, which creates the attractor of the new order, in the interests of the attacking system, or another attractor of the chaos in which the system automatically “impose” following the type and level of chaos.

Here it is necessary to stipulate that in almost any system there are always certain internal contradictions (and, accordingly, some internal chaos), under the influence of which its self-development takes place. However, the concept of “controlled urgency” we are talking about something else. Such effects on the system, with the objectives of its profound disorganization, until the complete collapse of the system connectivity. And then either immerse the system deeper into chaos, or construct in it the order formats necessary for the attacking subject.

That is, in this case we are talking about the fact that prepared and possessing the necessary tools crisis management groups can create certain attractors of chaos and order in the social and state system of the enemy due to “point” weak effects. And thus manage the system for the benefit of their owners. Change order, transform chaos into new forms…

In this case, a necessary condition is the presence / creation in the attacked system of such “weak points” (“pain points”), which are already in a state close to the critical. And in which it does not require too much effort to cause an “avalanche” fall to the desired attractor.

It may seem that this model is purely theoretical

RAND CORPORATION

However, in 1984 in the United States under the auspices of the Pentagon and the state Department was created a “Institute of Santa Fe” (otherwise called “Institute of critical complexity”). One of its founders was the famous physicist, author of the theory of quarks and Nobel laureate, Murray Gell-Mann. The staff was recruited from scientists, diplomats, retired military and special services. Analysts of RAND Corporation and other non-governmental and state agencies are involved in the work.

The theoretical Foundation of the Institute’s activities was the work of Ilya Prigogine (“Order from chaos”), Mitchell Waldrop (“Complexity: a new science at the turn of order and chaos”) and Stephen Levin (“Complexity: life on the verge of chaos”). The main goal is to adapt the theory to applied military tasks. A special achievement of the Institute of Santa Fe, stated on its website-that “nonlinear dynamics” and “theory of complexity” since 1994 officially “adopted” (that is used at the level of combat manuals) by the American marine Corps.

The Santa Fe Institute publishes articles and monographs on the subject of “critical complexity”, holds “open” and “closed” conferences. At one of the” open ” conferences in 1996, among the main speakers were, for example, Murray Gell-Mann, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Carl bilder, James Rosenau, Robert Maxfield, Stephen Mann. Titles of reports: “reaction to chaos”, “Clausewitz, nonlinearity and meaning of imagery”, “Chaos, complexity and war”, etc.

For us from the listed figures Stephen Mann is the most interesting. This high-status diplomat since 1976 specializes in the USSR, and then in Russia and the CIS. He worked in different countries of the world, was a member of the group of continuous crisis monitoring at the state Department. Graduated with honors from the national military College, supervised Russia and Eastern Europe in the office of the Secretary of defense. In 1998-2001 he was U.S. Ambassador to Turkmenistan, then senior Advisor to the state Department for energy diplomacy in the Caspian basin, then special representative of the U.S. President for Eurasian conflicts. Currently, he is a senior Advisor to ExxonMobil on external intergovernmental relations.

Stephen Mann has been studying chaos theory for a long time. Back in the late 80’s, he conducted a study of Clausewitz’s work “on war” through the prism of chaos theory. And in 1992 he published in the quarterly publication of the Pentagon “Settings” article “chaos Theory and strategic thought”.

In this article, Mann writes: “Even in the absence of external shocks, a successful complex system includes factors that push the system beyond stability, into turbulence and reformatting… We can learn a lot if we consider chaos and regrouping as an opportunity rather than striving for stability as an illusory goal…”

Does this remind you of the statement by us Secretary of state Condoleezza rice at Cairo University in 2005? The one in which she reported that America in the middle East is abandoning stability and opening the way to the “hard work of democracy”?

But back to Stephen Mann: “the international environment is an excellent example of a chaotic system… “self-organized criticality.”.. corresponds to it as a means of analysis… The world is doomed to be chaotic because the diverse actors of human politics are in a dynamic system… they have different goals and values.”

“The world is doomed to be chaotic” – is not it a strong statement in the era of Clinton and American statements about the desire to establish a good global order by all means? And Mann continues: “Every actor in politically critical systems produces the energy of conflict …which provokes a change in the status quo, thus participating in the creation of a critical state… and any course leads the state of Affairs to the inevitable cataclysmic reorganization.”

Clearly said. The main thing is to put the system in a state of “political criticality”. And then, under certain conditions, it will inevitably plunge itself into cataclysms of chaos and “reconstruction”!

However, what are the conditions? Mann explains: “Conflict energy has been at the core of human properties since the individual became the basic unit of global structures…”.

Like this! It is individualism that blocks the purposeful connection of private human aspirations and will into a single historical will, which is the source of conflicts that guarantee the immersion of the attacked system into “cataclysms of chaos”! Therefore, total individualism must become an irrefutable social axiom!

Then Stephen Mann explains how to achieve this: “…the ideological support of each of us is programmed. The energy change of the conflict people …guide them on the path that is desirable for our national security goals, so we need to change the software. As hackers show, the most aggressive method of program substitution is associated with a”virus”. But isn’t ideology just another name for a software-based human virus?… With this ideological virus as our weapon, the United States will be able to wage the most powerful biological war and choose, based on the national security strategy, what goals-people need to infect with the ideologies of democratic pluralism and respect for individual human rights.”

“Hackers” and “software virus” in 1992, when the computer was still a rarity… It is felt that Mann was already in this area a man quite advanced. But this particular. Much more important than his arguments about” ideological contagion “addressing the concepts of” the end of history “by Francis Fukuyama and” soft power ” by Joseph Nye. And explaining exactly what you need to infect enemies.

And Mann continues, ” S…American. ..with the benefits of communication and the increasing opportunities for global movement, the virus will be self-replicating and will spread in a chaotic way. Therefore, our national security will have the best guarantees…”And further:” This is the only way to build a long-term world order (although, as we see, absolute permanence can never be achieved)… If we fail to achieve such ideological change around the world, we will have sporadic periods of calm between catastrophic transformations.”

Mann’s words about the ” world order “here is a tribute to”political correctness”. Because in his report – and above and below – we are talking exclusively about chaos. In which, judging by Mann’s allusions to” the best guarantees of US national security, “only America will be able to survive as an” island of order “in an ocean of” manageable criticality ” (that is, global chaos).

And four years later, in 1996, Stephen Mann makes the above-mentioned Conference at the Institute of Santa Fe report “Reaction to chaos”, which develops the concept of” controlled chaos ” is quite frankly and specifically.

The post CONTROLLED CHAOS first appeared on Global Policy.

We were taught to use special combat techniques against enemy soldiers. Today, they are being used against the civilian population of our own country. For 2 years, reading Russian Newspapers or watching TV shows, I note with interest that the people coordinating the stuffing and interpretation of the news in Russia, clearly learned from the same textbook, from the same cheerful Colonel or his colleagues.

Here’s an example of the method of “rotten herring” works like this

A false accusation is being chosen. It is important that it was the most dirty and scandalous. Works well, for example, petty theft, or, say, child molestation, or murder, preferably out of greed.

The purpose of” rotten herring ” is not to prove the accusation. It’s about causing a wide, public debate about his … Injustice and Unfairness.

The human psyche is designed so that, as soon as the prosecution becomes the subject of public discussion, inevitably there are his “supporters” and “opponents”, “experts” and “experts”, rabid “prosecutors” and ardent “defenders” of the accused.

But regardless of their views, all participants in the discussion again and again pronounce the name of the accused in conjunction with the dirty and scandalous accusation, thus rubbing more and more “rotten herring” in his “clothes”, until finally this “smell” begins to follow him everywhere. And the question “kill-stole-seduced or not” is becoming a major at the mention of his name.

Or, for example, the method “40 to 60”, invented by Goebbels

It consists in the creation of the media, which 60% of their information is given in the interests of the enemy. But, thus earning his trust, the remaining 40% used for extremely efficient, thanks to the trust of misinformation. During the Second world war, there was a radio station that was listened to by the anti-fascist world. It was thought to be British. And only after the war it became clear that in fact it was the Goebbels radio station, which worked on the principle developed by him “40 to 60”.

Very effective method of ” big lies»

It’s a bit like “rotten herring” but actually works differently. Its essence is to offer the audience with the maximum degree of confidence such a global and terrible lie that it is almost impossible to believe that it is possible to lie about such a thing.

The trick here is that a well-organized and well-thought-out “big lie” causes the listener or viewer a deep emotional trauma, which then permanently determines his views contrary to any arguments of logic and reason.

False descriptions of cruel abuse of children or women work particularly well in this sense. For example, a message about a crucified child due to the deep emotional trauma that it causes, for a long time will determine the views of the person who received this information, no matter how much he was then tried to convince, using the usual logical arguments.

But especially honored our cheerful Colonel method of “absolute evidence”, which gives though not fast, but reliable results.

Instead of proving something, you are presenting what you want to convince the audience as something obvious, self-evident and therefore unconditionally supported by the majority of the population.

Despite its apparent simplicity, this method is incredibly effective, because the human psyche automatically reacts to the opinion of the majority, seeking to join him.

It is only important to remember that the majority must necessarily be dominant, and its support absolute and unconditional — otherwise the effect of accession does not arise.

However, if these conditions are met, the number of supporters of the “majority position” begins to gradually but surely grow, and over time increases exponentially — mainly due to the representatives of low social strata, which are most susceptible to the”effect of accession”. One of the classic ways to support the method of “absolute evidence” is, for example, the publication of the results of various sociological surveys that demonstrate absolute social unity on a particular issue. Methods of “black” propaganda, of course, do not require that these reports have at least some relation to reality.

I can continue. Taught us actually a year, and the list of methods is quite large. It is important, however, not this. And this. Methods of “black” propaganda affect the audience at the level of deep psychological mechanisms in such a way that the consequences of this impact can not be removed by conventional logical arguments.

“Big lie” achieves this effect through emotional trauma. The method of evidence-through the ” effect of joining.” “Rotten herring” – due to the introduction of a direct Association between the object of the attack and the dirty, scandalous accusation in the minds of the audience.

Simply put, the combat special propaganda turns a person into a zombie, who not only actively supports the embedded in his mind, but also aggressively confronts those who hold different views or try to convince him, using logical arguments. Otherwise, in fact, it can not be. All methods of combat special propaganda United by a single goal. It is to weaken the enemy army by bringing internal strife, mutual hatred and distrust into its ranks.

And today these methods are used against ourselves

And the result to which they lead is exactly the one for which they were created. Only mutual hatred and internal discord arise not in the army of the enemy, but in our homes and families.

Just go outside and see how the country has changed over the past three years. It seems to me that the combat special propaganda works even more effectively against its own population than against enemy soldiers.

Probably because, unlike enemy soldiers, civilians cannot defend themselves.
