I guess the name "Putler" fits. An evil man. At least his Ukraine conquest is faltering badly.

Vladimir Putin 'wants to build pro-Russia empire from Vladivostok to Portugal'

Russian President Vladimir Putin is endeavouring to build a pro-Russian empire stretching from "Vladivostok to Lisbon", a former Russian president has warned.

"The goal is for the sake of the peace of future generations of Ukrainians themselves and the opportunity to finally build an open Eurasia – from Lisbon to Vladivostok."

TRANSLATION: "All of Europe, the former Soviet countries, and of course Russia, must become Communist, or we'll declare war on all of them and trigger an actual World War III, not just a war with one or two countries like the newspapers are trembling and mewling about."

Note, though, that it's not Putin saying this. According to the linked article, it's a "former Russian President".

That ex President hasn't been president for 10 years. How much "inside" info would he even know.

I would not be surprised if Putin "wants" that but to actually make it happen is another thing.

Seems like fear mongering to get more involved. Zero chance it could happen either.

And one the media source can't even name. When you see media outlets referring to unnamed sources, you can be 90% sure the story was simply fabricated to promote an agenda.

Typical both ways. Russia is losing the war , can't beat Ukraine but Russia is an existential threat on his way to the Atlantic and beyond.



I might die of BS poising from this conflict.

Just like people think that Hitler wanted to take over the world,
far from the truth.
