I’m going to guess most people and articles that commented about Putin’s speech didn’t actually listen to it or read it. Most of them didn’t even touch on the key parts. I think they read a paraphrased version or the end point and just ran with that.
It doesn’t make Putin’s speech right or wrong…but one might as well read it if they want to say things about it. I read one whole article about how it gives a false version of history that didn’t even mention one quote from it or discuss the false aspect
I think wading through 8,000 words of the speech is probably difficult and obviously listening to it takes time (I listened to it during a drive and then read it later)…but then just deal with the key issue…don’t pretend to really challenge all its points if you don’t read it
If one wants to oppose Russia’s policies, it’s good to at least know what they are or what they claim to be
