"Let's see if Lavrov is smart." Putin may escape diplomats and special services after defeat in Kharkiv region - political scientist

-Experts of the Institute of War Studies write that the Kremlin is working to remove any responsibility for the defeat in Kharkiv region, and in everything it is guilty, as always, "some boyars". Will they succeed? They will calmly tell their controlled population that the king is good, the boyars of the girlfriend, let's shoot a few shows and go further? Video of the day - I think there will be no one to shoot. Because shootings or some demonstration, public massacre is also proof of weakness.

And Putin understands it perfectly. He understands that his subjects are able to read between the lines. They have a very good memory since the Soviet times. They convey this memory of the Soviet era to their children, that is, the younger generation partially understands that it is teaching to read between the lines. Moreover, any demonstrative repressive actions of the authorities will only confirm information that runs on different telegrams in Russia that everything is bad at the front.

So I think, on the contrary, the impression that everything goes according to the plan will be. - As their propagandists reported, there were cases of heroism during their shameful escape. They will emphasize this now? - No, these are different means. Again, the Russian authorities tell their people that these were all distracting maneuvers. But since mid -August, the authorities have only been engaged in distracting maneuvers.

Initially, they distracted the attention of citizens from the defeat in the Crimea, in particular such things as death [daughter of Russian ideologist Alexander Dugin - Daria] Dugina. Now they also come up with what to distract. They will say that "we will win because we have nuclear weapons" that "it is so difficult for us, because we are fighting the whole event. " That is, all this was actually said in the spring. There will be nothing to change here. Another problem will arise.

Will the Russian authorities be warned by other events that can testify that confidence has already disappeared within the state apparatus and has disappeared? It is said that I still keep a close eye on the Russian space too, but we did not have information about high -ranking fugitives from the Russian authorities. From the Soviet era, the KGB generals ran, diplomats were running.

And then they told what life in the Soviet Union is happening, and that not everything is as well as the Soviet Union shows, some important myths and stereotypes that existed in the West were about the Soviet Union - about its grandeur, its power. This was not yet.

But now we will look very carefully whether this delegation of diplomats that Americans have issued visas will be those who will ask for political asylum and want to stay forever in the United States to tell what is really going on and in particular to give impressions against military criminals in particular in Russia.

- Do you predict that these people can be "non -liberty"? I remember all these stories of the Soviet Union, when even ordinary people, having received a visa, should only be traveled in a group where one of the KGB is obligatory. And these "slaves", fugitives, they were very afraid. Do you expect such people to be? - I calculate [on that]. First, we need to watch carefully. Because then it will be a sign of collapse, defeat within Russia.

Because they will flee the smartest, that is, people who have already realized that the war will end in defeat and falling of the regime, and therefore we need to take care of their future. It will be very interesting to see if the smart of Russia's foreign affairs Sergey Lavrov, whether he is as smart as the Taleyran (French politician and diplomat - ed. ), Who, four years before Napoleon Bonaparte, handed him away and went to England and went to the side of England and Austria.

Let's see if Sergei Lavrov is as smart as Taleyran, who believed that betraying was just to predict; Will he take the opportunity to stay in the US to stay there and give shows to Vladimir Putin. Yes, there will be KGBshniki, Fsbshniki, but among them, I hope there are smart people who will also want to stay in the US or Finland, who left their borders open, and will start showing Putin, Generals, their FSB colleagues, their colleagues. who ordered the commission of war crimes.

This will then be the most serious sign that the crisis is coming in Russia, because the smartest is already running away. - Can there be a fear there? The violinist was poisoned, Litvinenko was poisoned. That is, those who fled and told something, punished the Putin regime. Will not fear the main barrier to make such a decision? - For fools, such fear will, of course, the main barrier.

And smart people remember very well in the 1930s of the Soviet Union, when the performers were gradually cleared and destroyed when witnesses were destroyed.

I emphasize once again, if the smartest starts to run away, it will testify to the real beginning of the end for Putin's regime, especially when evidence of high -ranking staff of the FSB, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, perhaps even employees of the Ministry of Defense, who will succeed under different reasons, may But to go to EU or North America, or even other countries, and ask political asylum there.
