The ultimate goal of the military operation in Ukraine in the Kremlin is the collapse of the America-centric world and the subsequent revision of the results of the Cold War, and any result will be considered a victory. Such notice from the host program “Hold on !” on RTVI, Marianna Minsker was shared by political strategist and publicist Stanislav Belkovsky.
“Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin explained in the message, which has been explained through the mouths of his propagandists over the past few months, that the United States and NATO wanted to destroy us, but it failed, which means that we have won. As Baron Munchausen said, in Mark Anatolyevich Zakharov’s film, when they ask him: “Where’s the proof that you got out of the swamp by your hair?”, “I’m alive”, answers Baron Munchausen , so here , “he explained.
According to Belkovsky, the President of Russia is very fond of the phrase, which he attributes to Leon Trotsky, although, as the political strategist noted, it was actually said by the prominent social democrat Eduard Bernstein, and according to another version, the great prophet and teacher of the Jewish people Moses: “The goal is nothing – the movement is everything.” “Mr. Putin likes this phrase very much. Perhaps he could declare it the official watchword, the watchword of the special operation”, added the interlocutor of RTVI.

The publicist also made a prediction about what Russia will be like in a year. He believes that the country will remain “the same, only more isolated”.
“In the coming year, nothing will change qualitatively. By inertia, all the same processes will develop. I think the regime will survive, everything will be fine with it, from its own point of view, but the bunkering of Russia will intensify in every way, and we will have to live with it for at least a few more years,” Belkovsky says.
However, he is convinced that society would have to “live with this for decades” without the special operation, which “has accelerated the process of erosion of this type of state, based largely on the power of money “.
“Many external and internal experts complain that there are no state institutions in Russia in the usual sense. What is called status in political science. True, since the Russian Federation is not a modern state, but such an analogue of an organized politics, let’s call it that, a grouping – although the letter “P” can mean something else – but with an apparatus of legitimate violence in its own hands, with which a traditional organized criminal group, as a rule, does not have, ”concluded the political strategist.
