West’s global political and economic dominance ends – Putin

The Russian president says the “myth of the Western welfare state, of the so-called golden billion, is crumbling”.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has opined that the latest rounds of unprecedented sanctions imposed on Russia by the US and its allies over the Kremlin’s military campaign in Ukraine, mark the end of an era. According to Putin, from now on the West will be losing its “global dominance” both politically and economically.

Putin news

Speaking on Wednesday, the Russian head of state proclaimed that the “myth of the Western welfare state, of the so-called golden billion, is crumbling.” Moreover, it is the “whole planet that is having to pay the price for the West’s ambitions, and its attempts to retain its vanishing dominance at any cost,” Putin said.

The president predicted food shortages across the world as Western sanctions against Russia are adversely affecting the entire global economy.

Touching on the decision by several Western powers to freeze Russia’s central bank assets, Putin claimed that this would only serve to irreparably undermine trust in those nations, and make other countries think twice before placing their reserves in the care of those countries. According to him, nearly half of Moscow’s assets were “simply stolen” by the West.

Addressing people in the West, the Russian leader said the massive sanctions imposed on Russia were already backfiring on the US and Europe themselves, with governments there trying hard to convince their citizens that Russia was to blame.

Putin warned ordinary people in the West that attempts to portray Moscow as the primary source of all their woes were lies, with a lot of those issues being the direct result of the Western governments’ “ambitions” and “political short-sightedness.”

The Western elites, according to Putin, have turned their countries into an “empire of lies,” but Russia will keep on presenting its own position to the whole world, no matter what.

  1. This man is one of very few world leaders left NOT rushing to accelerate the destruction of his own country, history, culture and the impoverishment of its citizens for some harebrained, Leftwing pie-in-the-sky great reset.

    He’s no saint, but at least he’s putting his own country and it’s interests first (something our leaders did once upon a time before globohomo).

    The sanctimonious preaching from our political elite about “democracy” and “freedom” smack of hypocrisy after everything they’ve done to their own citizens these past two years. Oh how I wish they actually had the moral high ground, but they don’t. They do all the very things they accuse Putin of doing.

    They want this war, they want this recession and depression, they want these high food and fuel prices. And when it does all come crashing down they’ll expect us to believe otherwise. They can get bent.

    • … He’s no saint, but at least he’s putting his own country and it’s interests first …

      That’s the point I have been making about General deGaulle for a long time.

      He was a barbaric colonial master in Africa and Asia but at least he felt accountable to the French people.

      Look at what France has become under OMacron, a joke, and a US satrapy.

      • Amen, but who “trained” Macron? The WEF. So France is now a WEF state, not a country – hence there is no need to “defend French people”. The focus of the “French” government is now to iondoctrinate the French people so that they “accept” the new world order. The same goes for Canada, New Zealand, Germany, UK, and the list goes on.

  2. Putin was co-operative and also patient with US in the past. He tolerated NATO expansion, invading countries and destroying many old cultures etc. US can no longer function as a police of the world affairs. They played a role to defeat Hitler; so did Russia. Monocultural view, greed and corruption, intolerance to other cultures and interference in other country affairs, arms sales and war mongering are the factors for the failing of US and the wast. So, a rebalance of power is not a bad idea at all.

    • At this point, anything that ends with the Davos crowd in cuffs and the WEF headquarters a smouldering pile of rubble is fine by me.

  3. While I dont believe war is ever the answer to any issue, sometimes it is the only reaction left. US and their Western puppets have become too greedy and trying to dominate and take over the rest of the world with invasions and lies. They are the biggest hypocrisy ever, and can no longer be tolerated. Putin is right – major change is coming. It’s a sad time when you believe more truth is told by the leaders of another country (when you are taught they are evil)than the leaders of tour own country. The US are not the heros we are told to believe in – they are the evil aggressors.

  4. When I look at the people who are virtuously screeching their support for Ukraine, I wouldn’t trust most of them any further than I could kick them.

    President Putin’s has gone up in my estimation for these words from his speech today:

    “I want ordinary citizens of Western states to hear me too. They are now trying to convince you that all your difficulties are the result of some hostile actions of Russia. That from your wallet you need to pay for the fight against the mythical Russian threat. It’s all a lie!
    And the truth is that the problems faced by millions of people in the West are the result of years of actions by the ruling elites in the West. Their mistakes, myopia and ambitions. These elites are not thinking about how to improve the lives of their citizens, they are obsessed with their selfish interests and super profits.”

    • Yup, Putin knows what the plan is. After all, he was once a WEF young global leader…..he then obviously didn’t like the plan so is now using his knowledge to try and warn us citizens of the Western World who have been asleep as to what evil crimes and plans our own govts have for their citizens. Apparently Jacob Rothschild said in 2016 that Putin was a threat to the NWO. Now you know why they are constantly discrediting Putin. Remember Putin was formerly KGB…..think people, think…..

    • There are other young global leaders that are no longer young global leaders.

      Apparently their intake asked too many questions and was “cancelled”.

      • Interesting….could you name a few so I can look them up? I was wondering about Tulsi Gabbard – she seems to reasonable and normal to be a fully signed up YGL – or am I being fooled again? ????

        • Yeah, watch out for Tulsi – it’s just an act in my opinion. She says some good things every now and again like “Mr eyepatch” Dan Crenshaw (another “reasonable” YGL), but talk is cheap. Have a look at some of the awful legislation they’ve voted for and it’ll give you a much clearer picture.

          Like our own dear Mr Luxon, they talk a good game, but deep down you just know something is off.

    Jacinda Ardern is just a dumbed down version of Jen Saki, its time to break free from the flock and find our destiny.

  6. Madeleine Albright – The deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children was worth it for Iraq’s non existent WMD’s https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RM0uvgHKZe8
    Evil American deep state has no morality at all. Iraq is just one example. If Russia behaves like US/UK, they could have destroyed Ukraine in a week. Russia is very careful in its war; trains are still running for example. The current puppet regime is causing more harm to Ukrainans than Russia. Men are forced to remain by the neo-nazis, and the West is tunnelling weapons and mercenaries for the proxy war aided by the propagandist MSM.

  7. How many wars has the USA been involved in. What about korea, Vietnam, Lybia, Afghanistan, and so many others. Did any body cry foul when innocent people died. Where were the sanctions. What about Saudi Arabia beheading 80 odd people last weekend or Israels killing on Westbank, or Ukraine malicia killing and bombing the 2 eastern states for 8 years. Or weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and that invasion etc etc. Was their world sanctions on the USA. Those were wars. This is an invasion to destroy western Nato arms buildup and chemical labs in Ukraine, not a takeover. The USA wouldn’t tolerate it. They were prepared for war over Cuba having relations with Russia in the 60s.
    Its all western propaganda, and im sick of it.. Coming from English heritage, I’m fed up with American bullshit and always seeking world dominance and control and blame everyone else. The American dream is ending. Its now totally corrupted.

    At the end of the crisis, evil will be defeated in any case.
