Vladimir Putin continues his propaganda line. The head of the Kremlin often recalls the past and tries to impose it on the current war.
Journalist Roman Tsymbalyuk told Channel 24 about this. Putin considers this war to be patriotic, the journalist noted.
At one time, Putin's press secretary Dmitry Peskov said that the civilian population would continue to suffer in Ukraine, by which he actually recognized Russia as a terrorist. Over time, he took his words.
Tsymbalyuk called this statement by Peskov almost the only truthful one. Even ordinary Russians believe that even though they may be doing something bad, they must go all the way.
Putin talks about the past
The day before, Putin was expected to make “crushing statements” during his speech, but he unexpectedly spoke about the blockade of Leningrad.
In my opinion, this is called a mutation, a mutation of Vladimir Putin,” Tsymbalyuk noted.
The journalist suggests that the generation of Russians born under Putin and dying under him believes that he also liberated the concentration camps, and under his leadership a military campaign was carried out in 1945.
According to the journalist, in Russia the history of the Second World War is deliberately “pulled up” to the war they are now waging.

Why Russia calls the war “SVO”
Tsymbalyuk remembered how Putin traveled to Bashkortostan. There he said that they were not Buryats, but the Bashkirs were very good warriors. Then Putin mentioned 1812, 1941 and the present. also a Patriotic war, – added the journalist.
He noted that Putin is now talking about the Patriotic War in a situation where virtually the whole world is against him. Recently, even Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said that Crimea is Ukraine. Although, it would seem, Serbia is on very good terms with Russia.
According to Tsymbalyuk, in Russia, probably, critical thinking worked for someone, and they decided that to declare war on everything the world is inappropriate. Therefore, it is still called a “special military operation”.
