I see some similarity here.

For sure both are/were inteligent, similar stare, similar loyalty

Here is the list of Putin's relatives (kids, wives / mistresses, other relatives) and their positions in Russian business/state.

Unexpectedly long list

April 25, 1945 - Brits bombed and heavily damaged Berghof, Hitler's mountains residence in Bavarian Alps

Did Americans complain about the bombing of the Hitler's house then? :)

The ruins of Berghof were dynamited/destroyed in 1952

Without You

(post by Mr Zelensky, Sep 11, 2022)

"Cold, hunger, darkness and thirst are not as terrible and deadly for us as your "friendship and brotherhood".

But history will put everything in its place.

And we will be with gas, light, water and food ... and without you!"

Still so actual!

Eastern Europe in 1721 - when Russian Empire was established. Borders and countries were nothing like they are today today.

Is it right to try to restore those borders and empires today?

According to poll from mid 2022 "only 29% of Russians currently have a passport, and only 2% of them have a Schengen visa."

Also: "In the last five years, 23% of our fellow citizens have traveled abroad".

This is one of reasons why Russian anti-EU propaganda works so well.

Russian empire was relatively short-living entity 1721-1917(?)

Here is map showing the the situation around 1500. You cannot even find 'Russia' there. But I see Lithuania, Poland, Moldavia etc - those are historical nations...

American FED functions as a custodian for gold for some European national banks.

Considering latest changes in American politics - Donald Trump, his executive orders, Greenland, relations with Russia - there might be some reasons to reconsider this.

It is about 2500 tons of gold bars

Nobody knows what Russian "historical lands" actually are. Below is the territory of Russian Empire when it was ESTABLISHED in 1721. Not even Crimea and "Novorossia" are included there.

It is very long shot, but it would be nice to have Belarus out from Russian influence. It would shorten new iron curtain that is being from in Europe:

And this is how Putin 'visits' 'frontline':

It is not what it seems. It is not 'we will not attack Europe'.

Lavrov actually means 'we should sit down, negotiate, agree on something and a pledge not to attack might be part of the deal'

It is like a local mafia willing to protect your shop from bad accidents.
