Putin Says This is the Real Red Line

There is a lot Putin can still do to the Ukraine without needing to go into threats against Europe.

Hopefully, he starts doing these things against the Ukraine soon, so he can start threatening Europe.

The West’s support for Ukraine is pushing Russia to the point where it cannot help but retaliate, President Vladimir Putin has said, while warning the US against deploying medium-range missiles.

Speaking at a meeting of top Russian Defense Ministry officials on Monday, Putin accused the US of seeking “to weaken our country and inflict a strategic defeat” on Moscow by continuing “to pump a de facto illegitimate ruling regime in Kiev with weapons and money, sending mercenaries and military advisers, thereby encouraging further escalation of the conflict.”

Washington is instilling fear in Americans by resorting to “simple tactics,” Putin stated. “They push us to the red line… we begin to respond, and then they frighten their population,” he added, suggesting that the US used the same approach during its rivalry with the Soviet Union.

The Russian president also slammed the West for what he described as attempts to impose its own rules on the rest of the world while waging “hybrid wars” against anyone who resists, including Russia.

In this vein, NATO is boosting its defense spending and forming “strike groups” near Russia’s borders, he added. “The number of American service members in Europe has already exceeded 100,000 troops,” he noted.

At the meeting, Putin also noted that America thinks it is God, which is factual.

“In fact, there is only one stable rule: no rules for those who make the rules, for those who consider themselves to be at the head of the whole world, those who consider themselves to be representatives of God on Earth, although they themselves do not believe in God,” Putin said.

Everyone who doesn’t believe in God thinks they are a god. This is standard. If you don’t believe in God, it is just stupid to act morally. It would be nonsensical, like Nietzsche said.

There is nothing more pathetic than some reddit atheist defending morality as “humanism.”

If I didn’t believe in God, I would want to rule the world viciously. It’s very simple logic.
