New Delhi: Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed a think tank event in Russia. Here he made a rather long speech. The topic of Putin’s speech was ‘The World After Hegemony: Justice & Security for All.’
Putin said, “The world is witnessing the degradation of world institutions, erosion of the principle of collective security, the substitution of international law for ‘rules’.
‘The game of the West is bloody, dangerous and dirty’ : Putin
“West fuels conflict in Ukraine. The game of the West is bloody, dangerous and dirty. There is no unity in the West Events in the world continue to develop according to a negative scenario, have developed into a systemic crisis in various areas,” he said.
Russian President further said, “The world authorities have an attempt to approve one right – so that the authorities have the opportunity to live without any rules, The West has taken a number of steps in recent months to aggravate, they always act to aggravate.”
‘The West always plays for escalation’: Putin
He further said, “The West always plays for escalation: incitement of war in Ukraine, aggravation of the situation around Taiwan, intensification of the energy crisis and destruction of gas pipelines Modern events have overshadowed environmental issues.”
“Events in the world continue to develop according to a negative scenario, have grown into a systemic crisis in various areas. The new centers of the world order and the West will still have to start a dialogue, better sooner,” he further said.
‘There is no unity in the West’: Putin
Putin called the destruction of the pan-European gas pipelines – Nord Streams – an outrageous step.
Vladimir Putin while addressing the think-tank gathering said, “I have always believed in the power of common sense. There is no unity in the West. The West is characterized, as Solzhenitsyn said, by a “continuous blindness of superiority.”
He further said, “Fundamental environmental challenges have not gone away, they are only growing. It is important to preserve biodiversity, but no less important is the preservation of cultural and civilizational diversity.”
Cancel culture has its roots in the west
Attacking the cancel culture that has its root in the West, Putin said, “Let’s think about the meaning of the word “cancel”, even at the height of the Cold War, it never occurred to anyone to cancel culture. Confidence in one’s infallibility is a very dangerous state, it is one step away from destroying those they do not like.”
West is imposing consumer stereotypes
West is imposing consumer stereotypes to expand its products in the market. He said, “Confidence in one’s infallibility is a very dangerous state, it is one step away from destroying those they don’t like. The West is imposing consumer stereotypes in order to expand the markets for its products.”
“You can’t blame everything on the machinations of the Kremlin. History will put everything in its place.”
He also said, “The Nazis went as far as burning books. Now the Western fathers of liberalism have reached the ban on Dostoevsky. I have always believed and still believe in the power of common sense. Russia’s confidence-building proposals tossed aside.”
Classical liberalism has completely perverted
“Classical liberalism has completely perverted- initially it promoted the complete freedom of every person, then in the 20th century liberals began to declare that an open society has enemies and their freedom can be limited and canceled,” he said.
He also said, “The West claims all the resources of mankind. The vast majority of countries now demand democracy in international affairs, not accepting the dictates of individual states. He called out rudeness and the open recognition of the West in financing the coup in Ukraine.”
West is multiplying chaos, says Vladimir Putin
Pointing out that the West is multiplying chaos, he said, “Every day Western order multiplies the chaos & becomes more & more intolerant, even towards the Western countries themselves, which are trying to demonstrate independence. Proposals of the same Hungarian deputies to consolidate Christian values were perceived as sabotage.”
Saying that US has nothing to offer the world but dominance. He said, “The US has nothing to offer the world but its dominance. No one can dictate to our people what kind of society we should build. Newfangled trends with dozens of genders, although strange, in my opinion, but so be it.”
‘Unlike West, we do not climb in someone else’s yard’
Attacking the role of West in the Ukraine-Russia conflict. He said, “Russia does not get involved in these issues. Unlike the West, we do not climb into someone else’s yard.”
Shedding light on the restoration of Europe’s objectivity in political and economic matters, he said, “Multipolarity is the only chance for Europe to restore its political and economic subjectivity. Traditional values are not a fixed set of postulates, in each case they are unique for each people, they should not be imposed, but respected.”
Putin also talked about gay parades and gender. He said, “They should not try to implement them in other countries attempts by the West to drive everyone under one template are doomed.”
Anglophobia, sexophobia same as Russophobia, anti-Semitism
Putin further said, “Anglophobia, sexophobia are the same forms of racism as Russophobia, anti-Semitism. Russia did not consider and does not consider itself an enemy of west.”
“What price did we pay to destroy the terrorist nest in the North Caucasus? Which the West then actively supported. There are at least two West – traditional, with the richest culture, and aggressive, colonial,” he said.
Russia does not challenge Western Elites
Putin also said, “Russia does not challenge Western elites. Russia defends its right to existence and freedom of development. Russia proposes to replace unipolarity with bipolarity, tripolarity.”
Pointing out that Russia will never be destroyed, Putin said, “Russia has not been and will never be able to be destroyed and “brushed” off the geopolitical map The transition to settlements in national currencies is inevitable. The Russian Federation is not going to become a hegemon on its own.”
Denying the existence of unity among the western nations, he said, “There is no unity between Western countries. In addition, the West has recently taken a number of actions aimed at aggravating the situation in the world, including fomenting a conflict in Ukraine.”
‘US Dollar is being weaponized’
Claiming that Dollar is weapon, he said, “All civilizations now have opportunities for their democratic development Using the dollar as a weapon, the West discredited the idea of a reserve currency system. The majority should benefit from world trade, “and not individual super-rich corporations.“
He also said, “Russia considers the formation of new global financial platforms inevitable The West, “tap-scratch”, pocketed our gold and foreign exchange reserves.”
‘Collapse of Soviet Union destroyed balance of geopolitical forces’
Technological development should not cause global disparity. Pointing this out he said, “Technological development should not increase global inequality, but reduce it, this is how the Russian Federation implements its policy The unity of mankind is not built on the command, it is built on the opinion of all. The collapse of the Soviet Union destroyed the balance of geopolitical forces.”
