The Russian soldier Ageyev, who was captured during a sabotage operation on the territory of Ukraine, admitted that he was a contractor. Russian authorities denied that the serviceman Ageyev was taken prisoner. Lying and denying the obvious are the main elements of Russian politics.

The Empire of Lies and its main liar
"You are to blame for it,
That I want to eat "
I. Krylov
These words of Krylov surprisingly accurately reflect the predatory nature of the Russian Empire, as evidenced by the current dangerous situation around Ukraine created by the Kremlin. Words no, the acquisition of freedom by the Ukrainian people, the most ethnically close of all the numerous peoples of the empire, a very painful blow to the self-esteem of the state-forming people (1) with its imperial worldview. The loss of Ukraine and the Crimea as a result of the collapse of the Soviet Union affected the geostrategic situation of the South-Western part of the Russian Empire. However, all this does not give any right to the Kremlin for a military invasion of Ukraine and the annexation of the Crimea, which, incidentally, has never been the original territory of Russia, as well as the entire Black Sea coast, and the numerically predominant Russian population of Crimea is the result of the genocide by Russia of the indigenous Tatar people And settling it by Russians. Turning to the recent past, an identical situation led to World War II, when England and France, following their obligations, declared war on Germany for the invasion of German troops into Poland. Strictly speaking, Russia's aggression should be followed by a declaration of war on the part of the United States and Great Britain, which, in accordance with the Budapest Memorandum, are guarantors of the security and integrity of Ukraine. However, this did not happen, either they were puzzled by the unusually blatant lie of President Putin about the non-involvement of Russian troops in military events in Ukraine, or again the blatantly documented lie on the international scale - after all, Russia also subscribed in the same Budapest memorandum to be a guarantor of security Ukraine. It is clear that between the nuclear powers, when every second is expensive, no declaration of war is to be expected, but it must be said that the similarly unexpected monstrous impudence of Moscow, bordering on some wild savagery, was perceived by the West rather restrainedly.
It would seem that the days of Hitler's fascism have sunk into oblivion, but no, Putin's aggressive actions have returned Western politicians scratching their heads to reality. Krylov's fables "The Wolf and the Lamb" they certainly did not read, but I hope they know that calling a wolf for justice is a hopeless business. Perhaps, at last, they realize that the "friend Putin", who loudly declared his regret at the disintegration of the USSR and compared it to the catastrophe of a universal scale, intends to recreate the Soviet Union and differs little from Hitler, who started building the "Great Reich". I want to note that Putin's intentions for Hitler even have an advantage, because unlike Hitler, Putin relies on the imperial people's worldview and Great Russian chauvinism present in the people. Putin does not need to build a party, create an ideology, it is enough to throw a cry "to wet Chechnya" or "give the Crimea" and he is provided with the support and full understanding of the Russian people. It is simply amazing with what popular unanimity that Putin's lies were perceived and supported, about the non-involvement of Russian troops, the so-called "green men", without identification marks, with the annexation of the Crimea. This is exactly the case when words Fazil Iskander "universal stink taken as consensus among the people."
It is necessary to note the unique feature of the Russian people, namely, its acceptability to lies. In the minds of the Russian, without causing any damage, truth and lie get along perfectly. Somehow during the time of the Soviet Union in a student company, a Swede, who trained at Moscow State University, told about her important discovery, she said, "in your country everyone says one thing and thinks different." This familiar state of ambiguity for our mind caused her bewilderment. She, who grew up in a free society, could not understand how this could happen, that everyone has the same opinion on any issue. What we, accustomed to the general lie, seemed to take for granted, seemed to her unnatural, and perhaps herd savagery, which she of course kept silent about. Hence it is clear how easily the lies of the Russian president, which responds to the imperial worldview of the people, are instantly accepted by the consciousness of every Russian, without thought, regardless of the country in which he lives. The latter says that even changed circumstances can not change the imperial worldview of the Russian people.
Maybe I'm wrong, but in my opinion, the Russian society, accustomed to the Lying of the Soviet Union, plus the pathological inability of the Russian people to live in a democracy, combined with its imperial worldview, is in itself a kind of embodiment of the Universal Evil , Bringing the burden to the World. And it's not about Putin, Putin is only a good conductor, the organizer of the splash of this Evil. Thus, to the generally accepted, well-known definition of Russia as the "Evil Empire", the "Empire of Lies" can equally be added, for "lies" and "evils" are concepts concomitant and there is no one without the other. So the aggression of Russia against Ukraine was compounded by the massive invasion of the Russian media by an incredible amount of misinformation and outright lies from the Kremlin and personally President Putin - the main, I would say, unsurpassed for today the liar of Russia. There is no point in bringing a long record of lies to the Russian president, for in every word lies a lie. Perhaps after Putin dealt with Ukraine, it is difficult to find a diplomat who would assume the responsibility to negotiate with Putin. It is not for nothing that friends of Putin have all the rabble in the person of the Belarusian father Lukoshenko, the bloody Syrian dictator Asad, the former prime minister of Iran Ahmadinejat and the departed Hugo Chavez.
The Lies Empire today has one strategic ally - Armenia, annexed with the support of Moscow 20% of the territory of Azerbaijan and awaiting Moscow's wake-up call for the resumption of aggression, with the undisguised goal of creating "Great Armenia" from the sea and to the sea in conjunction with a historical lie in which there is no Places neither to Azerbaijan, nor to its people. There is neither Turkey nor part of Georgia. Armenia, with its numerous Armenian enclaves in the North Caucasus, the Kuban, the Crimea, Ukraine, Syria, Libya, is possible, and now in California, which may form part of the "Great Armenia" in the future.
In its territorial claims to the South-East of Ukraine and the Crimea, where there is a Russian diaspora, is the result of the forcible eviction of the indigenous people and the settlement by the Great Russians, Putin unwittingly copies the ideology of the Armenian Dash party "Dashnaktsutyun", created in 1890, that is, long before Hitler's ideology Superiority of the German nation. All Nazi ideologies, in which national supremacy and "greatness" are heard, primarily give rise to the historical lie about "Great Germany" and "Great Armenia", which serves as the basis for territorial claims and as a result of military aggression. A very accurate picture of the national "superiority" of Armenians is represented by Vasily Grossman ("Banner", n.11, 1988.):
"With an insidious ease, the nation's nationalism loses its noble foundation, it does not become threatening, it becomes pathetic, does not cause, but humiliates. So trying to prove some kind of inferiority, a person discovers his own. Some of my interlocutors in all areas of human creativity first of all emphasized the Armenian national priority in architecture, science, poetry. They emphasized the superiority of the architectural merits of the temple in Garni over the seemingly primitive architecture of the Acropolis: speaking of the poet, the Tumanyans persistently assured me that Tumanyan's genius is superior to Pushkin's genius. The essence of course is not whether Garni's architecture is more perfect than the architecture of the Acropolis, Tumanyan's genius is more than Pushkin's, the essence, and of course the sad thing, is that poetry, architecture, science, history itself Their essence in the conversations of some of my interlocutors cease to mean. They mean only to discover the superiority of the Armenian national character over the national character of other peoples. Not poetry is important, but it is important only to prove that the Armenian national poet is above, say, a Russian or French poet. My interlocutors, without even noticing it, impoverished their souls and hearts by stopping enjoying poetry, the perfection of architecture, the greatness of science, and saw in poetry and science only a means of asserting their national superiority. This desire is so fanatical, narrow, that minutes seems like a manifestation of insanity. "
A glance at national superiority generates Nazism and Falsehood, and in the end pours out into Evil. Thus, the ideology of the Dashnak party contained a point in which terror was represented by the method of achieving the creation of "Great Armenia". Following this program point, the Armenian Nazis exposed the civilian population of Turkey and Azerbaijan to brutal terror, literally clearing the territory under "Great Armenia", which brought untold misfortunes to the peoples of Turkey and Azerbaijan, and to the Armenian people themselves. The Nazi ideology of the German fascists also led to a global catastrophe, from which the German people themselves suffered first.
Today, Putin opened the floodgates to Great Russian chauvinism, more and more often the fascist rhetoric Great Russian People and The Great Russian Language are heard, when the word "great" means not so much quantity, but as much quality. It is interesting that in Russian sources from all the peoples of the World only the Russian people are defined by the "great", even the Chinese people, is not allowed to be so. How Great Russian with this approach will allow himself to speak Ukrainian in Ukraine! How dare Ukrainians ignore the great Russian language, without making it public! Remember what kind of smirk and disdain among Russians living, for example in Baku, caused an Azerbaijani who does not know Russian well or speaks Russian with an accent, and this despite the fact that the Great Russians themselves did not even bother to learn the language of the indigenous people. They did not keep in mind either, how tactless they were in their ridicule. Only an inferior sense of personal inadequacy and a lack of culture leads to self-exaltation. By the way, if one is honest about the richness of the language, then in the Russian language there are a lot of borrowed Turkic words, while, for example, there is not one word of Russian origin in the Azerbaijani language, and this despite the Moscow's policy of Russification. Here it is appropriate to note that the Russians are forced By depriving the Azerbaijani people of the alphabet, overnight making it illiterate, introducing the Cyrillic alphabet. Imagine that Russia will suddenly be translated into the Chinese alphabet. I would like to look at the Russians who read Pushkin in Chinese characters.
Supporting the chauvinistic frenzy of the Russian separatists in Ukraine, Putin throws another historical lie about the fact that Ukraine as a state did not exist. In this case, how should treat the treaty on the reunification of Ukraine with Russia, signed by Bogdan Khmelnitsky? If there was no Ukraine, as Putin asserts, with which country the treaty? It seems that one Bogdan Khmelnytsky without the Ukrainian people and became a Russian citizen in a single, so to speak, specimen. Thus, President Putin in his historical excursions completely denies the Ukrainian people the right to their country, thus motivating the actions of Russian separatists in Ukraine.
So, the Chechens who fought with the Russians for the freedom of their homeland are all like one bandits, robbers, in a word - separatists, worthy of Putin in the toilet. In this case, how to call the Russians who settled in Ukraine, and who now want to tear away part of Ukraine where they live, and attach it to Russia? Either there are separatists bad, and there are good separatists, who should be helped by secretly transferring to Russia Russian fascists equipped with the latest weapons, up to anti-aircraft installations and tanks. In short, returning to the same fable of Krylov:
"A strong man is always to blame:
Tom in History we hear the darkness of examples, "
Having transferred nuclear weapons to Russia, Ukraine was defenseless against the Evil Empire. The question arises involuntarily whether Putin would dare to attack Ukraine if it had a missile with nuclear warheads. Of course not. The Empire of Evil, having promised to be the guarantor of the integrity and independence of Ukraine, in fact, deceived both Ukraine and America with Great Britain, which gives the right to call Russia and the "Empire of Lies." Therefore, all countries, especially the former colonies of the Russian Empire, should treat with extreme caution the treaties, allied obligations and other agreements with Moscow, dooming themselves to be a victim of deception. Hence the fears of Finland's peaceful neutral until now and the sudden desire to join NATO.
Without any doubt, we can assume that if it were not for NATO, the Fuhrer Putin did not hesitate to revive the Russian Empire in its former borders, including Poland and Finland.
