I like recent post by president Trump on the need to end the war asap.

Not only President Trump threatened Moscow in that post, but also President Trump provided a view on the WW2 which doesn’t match with Russian official interpretation of the events related to the WW2.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Russia spent a great deal of time and money infiltrating US politics, yet the most valuable accomplishment by the Kremlin was that related to Russia national agenda in the US has become super partisan although Moscow wants collapsed America under either political party.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

What a good question.
Naive, scared, corrupt, delusional?

They lost the ability to fight….probably. They don’t know what to do. They were hoping that the problems will evaporate.

Realistically it was clear that Russian empire will resurrect even during Yeltsin’s presidency.

[Igor Sushko @igorsushko]

How are the leaders in the West so naive and ignorant...
Georgia and Ukraine ask to join NATO in 2008 for protection from Russia.
Russia threatens NATO.
NATO backs down.
Russia proceeds to invade Georgia in 2008.
Then Russia invades Ukraine in 2014.

Somehow it is normal in the US civil society  to demonize the FBI and especially the CIA.

Musk  took advice from the Russian ambassador  (at least part time Russian  spy) but  apparently   he is superr enthusiastic about  the topic on that laptop he obviously not qualified at.

The hammer of justice has come

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

I think Hunter Biden in light of his record shouldn’t have been allowed anywhere near Ukraine, given that Ukraine is a top priority for the Russian intelligence.

However, the Russians were spinning misinformation on his laptop.

The Russians are against America, not the Dems.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

This being said I am glad that the Democratic Party lost the election. They had 3 years to stop and punish Putin.

Instead they were doing politics and campaigning.

They clearly spared the Putin regime during the first months of the war when Putin’s army started collapsing.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

As someone who was following Russia for decades and who predicted that Putin will start a war and will do horrific atrocities, I must say that I am troubled by the fact that western civilisation refuses to acknowledge that imperial Putin’s Russia is a global problem.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Amazing,
The Washington Post just posted an article whitewashing the Russians, claiming that undersea cables were damaged by a coincidence and not deliberately on the orders of the Russian government/intelligence.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Putin is scared. He doesn’t know what to expect.

He will not sustain this war much longer. He was expecting everything to be different.

Putin originally expected the West and Ukraine to concede.
He was not anticipating resistance.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Hamas will attack again.
Some organization and countries cannot become decent in their current shape and format.

Russia, Iran, Hamas will attack again and will continue doing so until they are exposed to fundamental reshaping.

From the Kremlin's perspective, the UK may be the only Western country Russia has not deceived about its imperial and aggressive nature – By @sergeistepancev https://t.co/YCCli7Wr7b

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Back in 2016 the Russians were hoping that President Trump will crash American system.
It did not happen.

It seems the Russians have similar hopes again.

Surely it will similarly not happen this time as well.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Super troubling that President Biden could damage Russian oil industry three years ago, but did not do that until very last weeks of his presidency.

Convincing is not applicable to Russia.

Only forcing and imposing upon Russia will provide the results.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Negotiations with Russia can be compared to negotiations with Hamas.

Both Russia and Hamas will eventually cheat and violate earlier agreements.

The only way to secure peace is to completely destroy Hamas and the Putin regime.

One day such measures will be on the table.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Troubling that all European politicians supported by @elonmusk are friendly with the Russian regime.

We have a very challenging situation:

Russia is against America, and yet Musk supports Russia’s allies.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Russia will cheat and attack Ukraine in 1-3 years or even sooner.

NATO membership is one way to prevent this. Another way is to have permanent western military presence in Ukraine.

Ukraine must be strong and armed to defend itself because Russia will try to subjugate Ukraine.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Superb analysis by Ben Wallace. It is very unfortunate that it is taking so long for western community to realise that Russia is beyond repair and that Russia must be compared to 1939 Germany. https://t.co/2neWufuI2I

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

This is just a reminder that Putin and his sidekicks should not be feared.

They love life and want to enjoy billions which they embezzled.

With nuclear rhetoric they are trying to intimidate western public and utilise their agents and useful idiots within the West.

[Sergei Stepancev @sergeistepancev]

Russia will cut cables, cause unrest using proxies, set on fire facilities and even again cargo planes.

Why can’t the West do the same using proxies?

All former USSR republics were colonised by Russia, all those republics have grievances and/or separatist tendencies.
