Soviet and russian human rights activist and dissident Valeria Novodvorskaya, answering the question of what is needed to curb Russia and bring it to its senses, is a small country that can no longer threaten anyone on such a scale. No nuclear weapons. Before her death or assassination in 2014, she said: “Today’s password for free people is “Slava Ukraini!”, and the answer is “Glory to the heroes!” Please save Ukraine, and this is the only thing that can save Russia.” She believed that if Ukraine follows the Western path, this means that Russia will inevitably follow the same path. Ukraine, with Maidan and the expulsion of Yanukovych, chose the Western path of development. And this is dangerous for the retention of power by Putin and his gang, when an Orthodox country, where they also speak russian, rushes to the West and abandons the soviet past and the russian protectorate. This can become a contagious example. That is why Putin decided to start a war with Ukraine, so that it would not know calm days and would not be able to carry out reforms to join NATO and the EU. It's simple. Elementary Watson.
Female opposition leader simply by a fact that she's a Navalny's wife? Are you for real? Leader's position by a birthright or something? People even didn't knew that he has a wife. For the most, their first impression was that Navalny has died and then, suddenly, his wife is on some conference in Europe in a full makeup a few hours later. Where she was while Navalny was in prison? - Not in Russia. Even other opposition didn't say a thing about her existence while Navalny was alive. This "charismatic, clever and strong woman" can continue sitting in Brussels or whatever and do her "meaningful" protests there. Putin will surely be scared after he sees a few dozens or hundreds of people in some EU country protesting against him, and Russians would surely see her as a leader of opposition too. Right? Russian society is a traditional one and it won't accept a female leader unless it's according to monarchy. In the recent hundred years there was whooping one woman politician who was respected - Valeriya Novodvorskaya (died in 2014, was respected despite having quite questionable opinions). Others? People even don't respect Nabiullina who does nothing short of a miracle by keeping Russian economy not only afloat, but also growing. And some random woman who just happens to be late Navanlny's wife? Yeah, sure, no. Maybe in a Russia from your fairytales, but not in an actual Russia. Even if she has some support, it would be teens who cannot even vote yet. Navalny was respected to some degree, his wife never was and never will be.

One can only feel sorry for those few there who, despite everything, retained their human appearance.
I would call this a feature of Russia, a protective mechanism developed over centuries of invasions and wars on Russian territory. The territory of Russia is huge and rich in resources, and the number of inhabitants is only 140 million. To defend this territory, we need men with strong willed qualities, ready to endure and die, all this is in Russian culture. Western people will not be ready to live in the trenches, kill and die, because they are accustomed to a high standard of living, consumption, and are well educated, but educated people are difficult to manage!

A lot of young people who are better educated and speak a second language are leaving Russia, including a couple of my cousins who have moved to England. They love it there.
Putin has very high popular support according to our American democratic standards. And will be elected democratically (like Trump will be). Navalny did not have any popular support but RIP to him.
I am Russian. I left my country because of Putin. Now I wonder how exactly Mr. Oreshkin calculated 80%? No objective surveys are possible under authoritharian rule which is transitioning to totalitarian one. Even I would rather lie or deny to respond to any such surveys if still in Russia.
Your report begins with nonsense: Navalny was neither up for election nor did he ever have the slightest chance of winning over serious sections of the population in elections. Putin, on the other hand, is a historical figure and a brilliant and strong leader who - unlike our elite in Europe - stands up for the interests of his people. If I were Russian, I would without a doubt vote for Putin.
Utterly laughable. Putin has literally killed tens of thousands of Russians, expanded NATO to include Finland and Sweden, brought on sanctions and is a corrupt, brutal kleptocrat.
Depends on who you ask obviously he is not hated by everyone but doesn't mean he is liked by everyone. It's more of who is willing to support Putin further that should be the real question.
With Putin in power, it was impossible for him to win, but he was meaningful in the sense that he opened the eyes of millions of Russians to Putin’s corruption.
In fact Navalny was _seriously_ meaningful opposition. - Putin refused to even say his name. - Putin tried to poison him, then imprisoned him, then moved him to the Arctic, then had him murdered. - Putin's regime tried to prevent his funeral, and when that failed they sent police to oversee the mourners. - Tens of thousands of those mourners laid flowers at the grave for several days. - Putin's propagandists like Solovyov and Simonyan talk about Navalny. - Despite all this, now the web brigade trolls are out in force trying to say that Navalny wasn't serious opposition. Web brigade trolls literally have to be paid to say their falsehoods. When will the Ukrainian military realize that web brigade offices are valid military targets?
Putin is not going to end this war. Even though we know both sides would benifit from it. Do you know how difficult it would be for him to change directions. This would be like me changing directions on supporting Ukraine. Or calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. To change directions requires one to see past where they are now. And realize the bigger picture and how it's going to affect things. Not only that with the statements both sides have made. It's not like both sides are slowly toning down their rhetoric and coming to a conclusion.
DW kindly conduct a poll in Germany between Putin and Scholz.. and ask the Germans who they would love to have as the president, this can be done across countries..This will answer your question
I live in russia and i can confirm majority of Russians like him and they have a huge respect for him, and Navalny is not that famous in russia they do not care about him
I hardly think that Pootin is liked, but he is feared and the bottom line is that he remains in power. But the price is very high and in the end a leader who is feared will go down in violence.
Of course Putin‘s approval rating is high,
I think Kim Jong Un's approval rating in North Korea is 100%

I don’t think so ❤
@@evaolah7621 I work in Vancouver, Canada. I know quite a few people who definitely support Vladimir Putin.
Myself included.
How popular is Kim Jong Un in North Korea? People cry in the presence of him as if they saw God (otherwise they would be tore apart by dogs hours later).
How popular is Xi Jinping in China? Only the best selected actors/actresses can approach him.
Exactly, it’s a matter of survival to praise these despicable creatures😮
How popular is Scholtz in Germany?

they can be (and are) elected out of power though, unlike putin.
Forget Putin.. where is Julian Assange?
He's alive. Serving sentence for leaking state secrets. That law exists in russia too. Now, where is navalny???
Putin's rating is 82%. And I'm one of them. You can burst with anger.
then its 83 persons.

Unlike Putin all those guys can be voted out.
They are leaders of democratic countries where votes matter (and voters can disagree if they fail to deliver) unlike in Russia, where everybody must support pootin
hmm but they will have general election in Russia next week.. you are aware of it ? be careful with mainstream media.. its like junk food for the brain. Furthermore i am pretty sure your definition of "democracy" is quite different from what we have here in the US.. you see here its quite seldom that the majority vote wins, often the winner is the candidate with less popular votes (due to electoral colleges etc). Last thing, his name is Putin not pootin@@maneshipocrates2264

Lol, it`s putin who`s destroying russia, not the west.
He has dismantled Russia long time ago between his fiends oligarchs, which steal profits from selling natural resources to buy yachts and to build big mansions meanwhile regular people lives in poverty. There are plenty of facts on youtube about this
Save? Only Jesus saves. The West cannot liberate or dismantle Russia. Russia has always been under the Khans, the Czar, the communist Party, and now your 24 year dictator.
Serf mentality. I pray you can see this and finally break free. Unlikely, most Russians live in fear and stay in the bread line.

At least they vote in Russia.
In the UK, I've seen 3 Prime ministers come into power just like that, no votes, no opinions, their parties just pick and select them, and boom, they are leading the country, regardless of the peoples opinions.
In these 2 scenarios, you tell me which is a greater scam?
Hi Agent Ivan, they cast a vote but they are not counted 🎉
You vote for political party in the UK, not the person. You've seen what happens to Putins challengers right ?
In the UK, political opponents are not assassinated or jailed.
In the United States, Trump was forced to play false accusations. False accusations during the elections are treason, but no one has been punished. As a result, not a single American knows who is running their country right now. Who pulls the strings of a crazy grandfather.😂

"Do Russians like Putin?"
They'd better, if they know what's good for them...!!
Putin has very high popular support according to our American democratic standards. And will be elected democratically (like Trump will be). Navalny did not have any popular support but RIP to him.
I am Russian. I left my country because of Putin. Now I wonder how exactly Mr. Oreshkin calculated 80%? No objective surveys are possible under authoritharian rule which is transitioning to totalitarian one. Even I would rather lie or deny to respond to any such surveys if still in Russia.
I'm Russia and I don't either like or dislike him.
Am I the only one rolling my eyes at Russians on the street?
No, your are not
Isn't this called nationalism? with a smooth transition to fascism.. Close your eyes carefully, otherwise stretch out your legs

What else could DW broadcast about President Putin??? Its obvious nothing else apart from this
Free Julian Assange
God bless Putin.
They have been protesting for two weeks? And you say Putin is a dictator, sad channel
Your report begins with nonsense: Navalny was neither up for election nor did he ever have the slightest chance of winning over serious sections of the population in elections. Putin, on the other hand, is a historical figure and a brilliant and strong leader who - unlike our elite in Europe - stands up for the interests of his people. If I were Russian, I would without a doubt vote for Putin.
Utterly laughable. Putin has literally killed tens of thousands of Russians, expanded NATO to include Finland and Sweden, brought on sanctions and is a corrupt, brutal kleptocrat.
Россия зоопарк.
Путин смотреть зоопарк.
Depends on who you ask obviously he is not hated by everyone but doesn't mean he is liked by everyone. It's more of who is willing to support Putin further that should be the real question.
Just stay home on the election date as the voting paper has only 1 name: Poo-Sin.
Right
Кто ты такой, что бы россияне слушали тебя? Думай о своей стране.

Navalney 2%
Free Assange
Pretending that N. was "meaningful opposition" is peak copium.
With Putin in power, it was impossible for him to win, but he was meaningful in the sense that he opened the eyes of millions of Russians to Putin’s corruption.
I think not even being able to say his name, is in fact peak ultra full copium.
@@HeathBlythe Avoiding YT censorship
When will the Ukrainian military realize that web brigade offices are valid military targets that their drones can reach?
In fact Navalny was _seriously_ meaningful opposition.
- Putin refused to even say his name.
- Putin tried to poison him, then imprisoned him, then moved him to the Arctic, then had him murdered.
- Putin's regime tried to prevent his funeral, and when that failed they sent police to oversee the mourners.
- Tens of thousands of those mourners laid flowers at the grave for several days.
- Putin's propagandists like Solovyov and Simonyan talk about Navalny.
- Despite all this, now the web brigade trolls are out in force trying to say that Navalny wasn't serious opposition.
Web brigade trolls literally have to be paid to say their falsehoods. When will the Ukrainian military realize that web brigade offices are valid military targets?
Russian know what happened because internet, Facebook, FaceTime
Russian people good people and need peace ✌️
Putin is not going to end this war. Even though we know both sides would benifit from it. Do you know how difficult it would be for him to change directions. This would be like me changing directions on supporting Ukraine. Or calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
To change directions requires one to see past where they are now. And realize the bigger picture and how it's going to affect things.
Not only that with the statements both sides have made. It's not like both sides are slowly toning down their rhetoric and coming to a conclusion.
Has DW ever report anything positive about Putin?

I live in russia and i can confirm majority of Russians like him and they have a huge respect for him, and Navalny is not that famous in russia they do not care about him
If they don’t like him, why do they vote for him.
Something is not right!
People all over the world love and support Putin
I hardly think that Pootin is liked, but he is feared and the bottom line is that he remains in power. But the price is very high and in the end a leader who is feared will go down in violence.
When have you been in Russia?
