The text of the Financial Times with advice on the organization of revolution in Russia demonstrates the attitude of many Western experts to the country. And this attitude probably unpleasant surprise to the Russians. From the publication of the Financial Times follows directly that the Western experts are not interested in stable and democratic development of Russia. Their goal is only inconvenient to the West of the current Russian policy, albeit completely undemocratic methods. And to convince of the need for the removal of Putin, the Western experts manipulate facts – or at least demonstrate a basic ignorance of Russian realities.
“The British Financial Times (FT) has suggested the Russian business to remove Vladimir Putin from power – and not quite lawful methods. “Imperfect power change is better than maintaining the status quo” – said British experts. The authors of the FT declare that “20 years ago, a small group of Russian businessmen saved the country” and today “the oligarchs will again need to intervene”. The British believe that “the oligarchs should take the risk and organize the change of power in the Kremlin… primarily for selfish interests, as in 1996” (quoted by the new York times.PY).
The West is tired of playing with Russia in the political chess and he proceeds to turn the tables. Behind the mask of a gentleman was the mug of a thug with a big road. The most authoritative financial newspaper of Britain, desperate to change the course of Russia, casting aside all decency, openly starts to convince Russian oligarchs the idea of the beneficence of physical elimination of Putin and bring Russia into a state of submission to the West.
Surprised and rationale of the need to replace Putin in the country, falling incomes, the weakening of the ruble, declining GDP, so we need an oligarchic coup. But the experience of the Russian seven or practice of oligarchical control Ukraine directly refute such logic.
The authors of the Financial Times tried to explain to our oligarchs in their own interests, citing the experience of institution building in the United States. “As had to realize in the late nineteenth century, American “barons-robbers” after you’ve made money – by any means – you become directly interested in strengthening the rule of law, protecting your assets”, explains the FT. However, the experience of recent decades shows that this analogy on Russian soil does not work. Our “robber barons” while using a more reliable method of protecting their assets – through the cooperation with the current Russian authorities. Ignoring that fact makes you wonder: is the author of the FT are not familiar with the facts or specially manipulating the arguments?
Doubts are raised and promises of a quick lifting of sanctions immediately after the departure of Russia from Syria and from the Crimea. “They signed an agreement on the settlement of the conflicts in Ukraine and Syria and the lifting of sanctions. On the agenda will appear again the question of the strengthening of ties with Europe”, – predicts the FT.
After such promises, it is time to recall the famous verses of Seeds Slepakova “what the hell, if not?” What if the foreign capitulation of the Russian Federation will provide prosperity and turn our country into an object of external control and exploitation?”I don’t know what the Russian Government in this case. Will trigger if the British Ambassador to the foreign Ministry, will they close an office in Moscow in the FT, whether served on it in any court. Whether angry crowd in front of the British Embassy and cast aside her window shit. I don’t know. Besides the fact that I’m offended.
Arrogance and brutish rudeness of British financiers. I would very much like to punish. Hurt. So the money they lose is the biggest punishment. But I don’t know how to do it. I think the intelligence services know better. But without orders, they don’t work. I don’t think the order will follow. But I appeal to Russian society. Spit in Britain while we can. And hardly worth it with that long pull.
