"Real curse": Navalny told about Russia after Putin's loss in the war with Ukraine

According to the politician, the victory of Ukraine in the war is tactics, since the current President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin will be able to "sell" the electorate that Russia has lost NATO and a collective event, not Ukraine itself. According to him, a innate feature of the post -Soviet power of the Russian Federation is jealousy for the success of Ukraine. Yes, the Russian elite considers any acquisition by its loss.

This hostility was especially strengthened after 2004, when the Orange Revolution took place. "Control of Ukraine is the most important symbol of the faith of all Russians with imperial views, from officials to ordinary people," Navalny wrote. As for the wars, the impulse of aggression, according to Navalny, comes from the minority of society. This is especially true of modern Russian elites. They currently have an opinion that the war can solve internal political problems.

The politician writes that the Russian leader, who came to power after Putin, can also perceive war. "The war raises Putin rating at the expense of the imperial part of society," Navalny wrote. However, he believes that Ukraine's obsession suffers only a little in the Russian Federation outside the power elites. Despite the work of propaganda, the suffering of Ukrainians find a response from the souls of young voters from Moscow and St. Petersburg.

The article states that imperial authoritarianism is a real curse of Russia and the cause of its trouble. It is not possible to get rid of him in Russia. The strategic goal, according to Navalny, should be to return the Russian people to make the right choice. "Russia needs a parliamentary republic, and only it will stop the endless cycle of imperial authoritarianism, which is self -repaying," - said Navalny.

He writes that this will help limit power in the hands of one person, form a judicial system, form a government by a parliamentary majority that has never been in Russia. Otherwise, according to Navalny, imperial authoritarianism will again take the mountain and Russia will start a new war again. Earlier, Focus reported that during a concert in Moscow, Putin said that Russia had created Ukraine.

Turning to the custom of history lessons, the President of the Russian Federation stated that during the collapse of the USSR, no one asked anyone, unlike the current situation. We will also remind that the Russian Federation talked about a direct military conflict with NATO. The State Duma declared the Alliance to confront the "leading nuclear state". The Ministry of Foreign Affairs Maria Zakharova used more figurative formulations - Russia goes forward "in the name of light and with God.
