Russian opposition leader Gennady Gudkov has voiced his opinion on Putin's plans in an interview with Mark Feygin.

"Putin is obvious. Now Putin is thinking: “I will not give up! I will endure to the end. And since the West is not used to enduring to the end, they do not understand how to live or tighten their belts. And then the West will falter. And the West will understand that the Russians cannot be broken. The Russians are hungry, poor, wretched, sick, but they will still fight."

He also hopes for all sorts of world events: China will quarrel with America, France will quarrel with Germany, Britain will again come up with some kind of Brexit, a war will break out in the Middle East, Pakistan will grapple with India, something will happen in China, and we (Russia) again get out of the water dry. Here, his calculation is to pull, pull, and pull … And to scare everyone with nuclear weapons, just in case.

After all, does blackmail with nuclear weapons affects the West? For sure. And the West thinks: “How many people will die in a nuclear strike? 550 million or even a billion? We don’t have our people to endanger such a danger! Therefore, of course, we will supply tanks, we already understand that it is possible, but for now, let's wait with aviation. We will give HIMARS for 70 km, but let's wait with ATACMS. You never know what this madman will come up with. Come on, Chinese brothers, warn him so that he (Putin) does not even think of pressing the red button. "

By the way, the Chinese warned him at the Munich Conference. The representative of China, Wang Yi, spoke there and said, "we are not even considering any possibility of resorting to nuclear weapons at all." But what did Wang Yi actually say? He said, "Volodya, don't even think about it." Here is the Chinese warning that Wang Yi delivered from the stage of the Munich Conference."
