Feigin on comparison with Peter I/Channel 24 Collage
Comparing Putin to Peter I is completely inappropriate. The Russian president ruined almost everything the emperor aspired to.
This was stated by Russian human rights activist Mark Feygin during a YouTube stream on Channel 24. He explained that everything in Russia would finally fall apart the morning after Putin's death.
“Comparing Putin with Peter I is a thankless thing. Because Peter still left a huge legacy, albeit an imperial one. After Putin, nothing will remain of what Peter created (after him, something existed for 200 years),” said Feigin.
Russians are not going to change
At the same time, the Russian human rights activist noted that now the West is not going to somehow radically change Russians . They demand only one thing – to give up the imperial seizures of other countries.
If you just want to give up everything progressive in your country, live like this, but leave other peoples who do not want to live like that alone , – the human rights activist admitted the position of the West.
In addition, Feigin noted that it would be really correct to compare Putin only with Hitler. But the Russian president is not even up to him.
The Russian human rights activist called such statements by Putin a so-called act of lack of self-sufficiency, ideological in particular. The Kremlin dictator actually no longer has time to change his position in the geopolitical arena.

Putin compares himself to Peter the Great: briefly
- At a meeting with young entrepreneurs, the Russian president announced another of his painful convictions. It turned out that Putin considers himself a follower of Peter I and “returns territories” just like the emperor.
- At the same time, at the corresponding meeting, the Russian president voiced his propaganda theses and absurd views on the world order. In particular, Putin actually stated that Peter I waged the Northern War in order to win back “his” territories. Of course, he did not tell the truth about the capture of Sweden.
- However, this is not the last statement about Peter I. On June 12, during a speech on the so-called Day of Russia, the dictator suddenly began to praise the emperor.
- Russian journalist Igor Yakovenko suggested that Putin's statements about Peter were a signal to Kremlin propagandists. After that, they were actually instructed to “press the thought” of the dictator into the heads of the Russians.
