When he took over, Russia was a complete basket case lying drunk on the floor while the west was picking her pockets. Putin stopped all that and he has achieved an economic miracle that has lifted most of the population out of poverty and put Russia squarely on her feet. What country can say that about their leaders?..... Rishi Sunak who nobody voted for?.... Joe Biden the senile?.... Olaf Sholz who sat back and let the USA blow up his eesential pipeline?.... Macron the little Napoleon who is about to wiped out og the national Assembly?.... Ursula Von Der Lyon who can't string two sentences together?

You are totally ignorant of the facts comrade Brewsteranov Strange how just about EVERY western media organisation ran multiple reports about the Nazi problem in Ukraine until they were told to make Ukraine the heroes..... Azov Battalion, Right Sector, C14, Ethnic National Union, Homo Ethnicus, Denic Kapustin, Misanthropic Division, Social National Assembly, Social National Party of Ukraine, Wolfsangel to name but a few who seig heil there way around in their jackboots tatooed with German Nazi insignia.... Western Ukraine fought with the Nazis in WW2, the so-called 'father of Ukraine' Steppan Bandera was a fricken died-in-the-wool NAZI who is honoured all over Ukraine with statues and even roads and buildings named after him.... Guess where all these organisations get their funding?..... Yup, the US State dept, The British foreign Office and the EU Commission.... Why?.... that answer is simple, because if you want to use a country as a proxy, you need to get into bed with the most extremist elements just like they do with Al Qaeda and ISIS who strangely seem to fight all of the west's enemies, and don't try to tell me you are also ignorant about THAT.

Why is there any need for the massive (even more than the US) censorship of foreign media? There is no suppression of political opposition you complete dorkus. Give me an example???.... I bet you can't.... ALL Russian elections are overseen by representitives of scores of global election observers sent in by countries all over the world, but strangely western countrties NEVER send any.. I wonder why???.... The US even thretened sanctions of observers if they dared go to the Russian election. So I am waiting for you to name a 'so called' opponent that was suppressed. Don't even fricken try to name Navalny.... The ONLY opposition to Putin would be the communist Party of Russia who achieve just about 10% in an election which is hardly any threat to Putin's party and everyone else gets single figures. So while you are great at quopting the BBC and all the other western fake media, you are going to have to work incredibly hard to enter into discourse with someone like me who is incredibly well studied in this particular subject matter, and if you really do want to mention Navalny, let me warn you I can go into granular detail about his entire political achievements.

Navalny didn't even get 1% of the vote when he stood in elections against Putin... In fact his best ever political vote count was when he stood for mayor of Moscow where he achieved a startling 5% of the vote.... Not quite the required amount for victory... Western media banged on about how Putin put him in prison to stop him standing... What they failed to tell you is that Navalny and his brother embezzled over 150,000 Euros from a french cosmetics company called Yves Rocher, they were also found guilty of money laundering and even then he was given bail which he skipped and fled to Germany where he was hospitalised with suspected novachok poisoning which was all bull because for the world's most toxic nerve agent, it never seems to ever kill anyone (see Skrippals affair) where 3 people in the UK also survived contact with it but hey... It made great propaganda for idiots out there with low IQ. As for censorship of the media.... It was western mendia that censored themselves... The Russian parliament the State Duma created a law stating it illegal for ALL journalists in Russia to report FAKE NEWS about the Rusian military and the Special Military Operation.... So ALL western journalists packed their bags and left for the airport which was very telling in that their number one function was to create FAKE NEWS..... So by running away they basically self-censored opting instead to sit in an office in London and making it all up as they go along. Which by the way are almost certainly the same FAKE NEWS journalists you have gained your education from.

So you personally attended the conference and were there all day, every day, understood everything that went on and everything that was said. Is that correct? You then concluded that all the countries who signed the document were wrong and only the countries that did not sign were right. Is that correct? (in your words) "In fact at no time whatsoever was there any attempt to discuss 'peace'... In fact it was nothing more than a staged platform for OUTGOING western leaders of the so-called free world to stand up on stage and criticise and threaten President Putin and Russia". Is that correct? Even though (in my words), Putin and Russia had already invaded the Ukraine and previously annexed Crimea and the Donbass region? In my eyes and probably that of many other people, I am probably correct You then came to the conclusion that Zelensky was only after money to (in your words) "It was also used as an excuse for the most corrupt politician on earth to continue to beg for money so he can buy more luxury multi-million dollar properties worldwide while he feeds his male (and female) population into a meat grinder for the benefit of creepy hair sniffing Joe Biden and Co".
