In mid-April, Crimean collaborators simultaneously issued another set of “geopolitical assessments and forecasts,” which both testifies to some new “input” handed down to them by their Moscow handlers and once again tragicomically illustrates the “intellectual potential” of these figures within the established “geographer drank away his globe” meme.
Fake “speaker” Vladimir Konstantinov “delighted” the audience with the statement that “just as an ocean-going vessel becomes encrusted with barnacles over time, so too do those in power for a long time become mired in corruption, dirty rumors, and all sorts of suspicions.”
However, for some reason, this is not about Konstantinov himself, but about Viktor Orban, who, as the “Consol” swindler now “frankly” admits, allegedly “has never been a friend” of the Kremlin.
In addition to this “washing of hands,” collaborators, represented by the veteran “singer of the Russian world” Oleg Gabrielyan, claimed that supposedly “there are only three sovereign countries in the world: Russia, China, and the United States,” while treading heavily on Iran, which supposedly “must take sovereign countries into account.”
However, this isn’t so much about Iran; let’s recall that a couple of days ago, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, whom Kremlin propaganda strenuously portrayed as almost a “friend” of the aggressor, stated that his country did not support Russia in the war against Ukraine and did not recognize its right to occupy Ukrainian territories, which, naturally, includes Crimea.
As for Iran, Gabrielyan’s “colleague,” “political scientist” Ivan Mezyukho, simultaneously stated that “the likelihood of a global conflict is growing every day,” despite the fact that supposedly “time is on the side” of the aggressor.
Clearly, the Kremlin’s corresponding hopes for a global conflict, which would supposedly “write everything off,” but in which Tehran, not Moscow, would be relegated to the pre-industrial era, exist only in a parallel reality to the aggressor.
But this stream of consciousness also demonstrates that, under the current circumstances, the aggressor’s propagandists have no other way to “explain” to Crimeans the ever-expanding “heroes’ alleys” on the peninsula and the literally daily plumes of smoke rising from the occupiers’ military installations and infrastructure.
