According to Olevsky, Putin's statements are becoming increasingly out of touch with reality.
Russian journalist Timur Olevsky said that the President of the Russian Federation has plans for the coming years. However, it is now clear that the dictator will not start a nuclear war.
Timur Olevsky talked about this in an interview for UNIAN.
He commented on Putin's speech at a session of the Valdai Discussion Club entitled "The World After Hegemony: Justice and Security for All." According to the journalist, he would like this speech of the dictator not to exist at all.
“We can’t count on the fact that Putin’s speech at Valdai will be a policy statement that will affect people's future for many years now. Not because we don’t understand how long he will be in power, but because his speeches are becoming more and more divorced from reality, they have nothing to do with what people will see tomorrow - in shops, at war. Kadyrov, Prigozhin, and General Lapin are closer to making decisions than a person who imagined a lot in his head," the journalist believes.

Olevsky also noted that he drew attention to two points. According to the journalist, Putin does not plan to start a nuclear war but still dreams of "dividing" the world.
“The first is that Putin has plans for the next ten years. Nuclear war is probably canceled if there are plans for the next ten years. The second important point is his statement about anti-globalism. Twenty years ago, the anti-globalization movement seemed like a worldwide resistance to the mainstream – bourgeois, capitalist, and, of course, harmful. Now it becomes clear that there is a world that wants to unite into one common family of people with economic chains, which guarantees the absence of wars. And some crazy people want the world to be divided. Putin is the leader of such people. Or he, having caught this current and the fear of citizens, took advantage of them. I bought cheaply and subjugated the people who have the least money with a terrible ideology," the journalist added.
He also pointed out that in Putin's speeches, there is no word about plans for the future life of the Russians. The dictator only thinks about the war, or the fate of the citizens of the Russian Federation does not bother him much.
“It is not very clear whether, looking at this speech, one can somehow plan and predict the political future of Putin himself. On the one hand, he plans to spend the next ten years in the Kremlin. He will live long and be president until the end of his days. The trends of the last few days and weeks: "There is Putin, do not touch him, and people who are doing business" suggest that all his plans now depend not on him. He survived his poison like Kipling's cobra. This is not mean that he has become harmless because all his surroundings are dangerous. But it was he, as a person, who politically survived his poison," Olevskiy summed up.
