Dear subscribers and guests of the channel! Yesterday, #Russian President #Putin was presented with several reports on the current situation in #Georgia, where the local parliament approved in the first reading a bill on "foreign agents", which caused a massive protest. 1/8
We have already talked about the attempted secret visit of the First Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration, Kiriyenko, to #Georgia, about the poisoning of the former President of Georgia, #Saakashvili, with the assistance of the current Georgian authorities,... 2/8
with poison transferred by the Russian special services and on the personal instructions of the President of #Russia, and about the preparation of an assassination attempt on Prime Minister of #Georgia Irakli Garibashvili from Russian interested parties. 3/8
Now #Putin, as an observer, is watching the development of chaos in #Georgia, in which he is directly involved. There are very few chances that Putin will decide to use the unstable situation in Georgia to solve his problems. 4/8
The president of #Russia is a notorious coward and a very insecure person. To decide on drastic steps, he needs support and encouragement from a number of key people, while support should not be too obvious so that #Putin does not feel he is being led. 5/8
Besides, there should be 100% guarantees from the people responsible for the operation, and in the light of the #Ukrainian events, there are simply no fools in #Putin's circle who are ready to take on such responsibility. 6/8
#Putin can wreak havoc in #Georgia or another state dependent on #Russia, but he will almost certainly not be able to use the situation to his advantage. Georgia's ability to independently and adequately overcome the current crisis will deal a significant blow to... 7/8
#Putin's plans to destabilize the Caucasus as a whole, which, of course, due to the pathological dependence of the current #Georgian authorities on the #Russian leadership, seems doubtful. 8/8

#Putin has a different situation with #Chinese leader #XiJinping. Putin sends messages to the Chinese leadership: "either you, dear Xi Jinping and comrades, give us weapons to win the war, or we have no choice but to use nuclear weapons in the conflict with #Ukraine." 1/6
#China does not want a nuclear conflict in #Europe at all, but they cannot really help #Russia either. Also, they cannot oppose Russia, risking losing a huge and weakening neighbor from their sphere of interests, and, in the very near future, from their sphere of influence. 2/6
#XiJinping is trying to build a complex system of keeping #Chinese positions in contact with the West and, at the same time, get #Russia, like an overripe apple that has fallen to his feet, without allowing a nuclear conflict. 3/6
#Russian President Vladimir Putin uses different methods to achieve his goals. Sometimes, they are effective. Sometimes, they are not. In rare cases, these methods begin to live their own, separate and independent of their author lives. 1/7
So, the former (possibly soon future) #USA President Donald #Trump was captivated first by the illusions of Vladimir #Putin and now by his own illusions. Putin, through insinuations and with the help of intermediaries, quite simply, managed to convince Donald Trump... 2/7
back in 2016-17 that he became president solely due to interference in the #USA elections by #Russian special services on the personal order of the Russian president. #Trump did not believe in his own strength and a fair victory so much that... 3/7
But this is not all #Putin's telephone entertainment for yesterday. Recently, the closest person to the #Russian president, judging by the number of contacts, is #Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi. A telephone conversation with Raisi for Putin, although an ordinary event, is... 1/5
nevertheless important. So the #Russian president does not give up trying to get the promised deliveries of weapons from the president of #Iran, and above all, ballistic missiles and launchers for these missiles. 2/5
Despite all the previous unfulfilled or partially fulfilled promises and missed deadlines, Ebrahim Raisi continues to instill hope in #Putin for the speedy delivery of everything that the President of #Russia asks for. 3/5
Dear subscribers and guests of the channel! Yesterday, #Russian President Vladimir #Putin had a telephone conversation with Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. The main topic of conversation was "strengthening trade and economic cooperation". 1/5
#Putin was trying to find ways to bypass the sanctions imposed by the West on #Russia. The Russian president is trying to persuade the leaders of the Central Asian countries to cooperate in this area. 2/5
Realizing all the risks, both Tokayev and the President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, with whom #Putin had a similar telephone conversation yesterday, are in no hurry to fully agree with the proposals of the president of #Russia. 3/5
On Saturday, #Putin held a meeting via video call with representatives of the leadership of the military bloc. It can be called a meeting rather conditionally. Putin scolded the participants, practically accusing them of sabotage and a complete lack of professionalism. 1/5
The president demanded to explain where the results of the "big offensive" at the front were, and without waiting for an answer, he summed up the result with the expression: "the result is fucked up." 2/5
All the promises of the leadership of the military bloc turned out to be "empty", and the only thing they know how to do is "to bullshit". #Putin did not listen to excuses and simply poured over the military with selective abuse for more than fifteen minutes. 3/5
On Friday, March 3, #Russian President #Putin held an operational meeting via video call with the permanent members of the Russian Security Council. The meeting was empty in content if you do not take into account the report of the Minister of Internal Affairs Kolokoltsev. 1/4
From the report followed that Kolokoltsev's ministry, with its own incredible efforts, practically eliminated the terrible threat to the regime that came from teenagers from the legendary or rather mythical PMC Redan. The meeting, as expected, ended in nothing. 2/4
Contrary to the established tradition, the president did NOT continue to communicate in a narrow format because, without the secretary of the Security Council and the director of the FSB, there was not even anyone to confer with properly. Director of the SVR... 3/4
