As passengers on the United States' self-sabotaged and sinking ship . . .

 

. . . watch (in contrast) what one of History's genuinely competent leaders looks like.

 

Here, answering press questions — without notes or previously crafted sound bites:

 

 

Michael Rossi Poli Sci, Vladimir Putin Press Conference - Astana Kazakhstan - October 14, 2022 - English Subtitles, YouTube (15 October 2022)

 

 

For a quick sampling . . .

 

. . . see the video sections entitled:

 

 

08:28 - The role of Germany in the Ukraine War and Russia's relations

 

15:46 - The explosion in Crimea and the consequences of grain exports

 

29:06 - Russian counterstrikes after the Crimean blast

 

29:56 - Will NATO send troops to Ukraine?

 

 

The moral? — A country led by viciously grasping and immoral dullards . . .

 

. . . (like ours) will begin to collapse.

 

In contrast, one led by manifestly competent and historically aware people — like Putin and China's Xi — most probably will grow its strong and societally impressive foundation(s).

 

We in the West have abandoned ours. You see the result.
