The head of the Kremlin, who announced a “special operation” and partial mobilization, comes out of the same paradigms. Putin uses the same theses as before.
About this for Channel 24socio-political psychologist Valentin Kim said. According to him, it is very typical for Putin to attribute to other people, countries, nations what Russia itself does.
“They shell foreign cities and attribute it to Ukraine. They threaten with nuclear weapons, but argue that these are threats from Western countries. They even hit their cities and accuse Ukraine. This is a reaction called a projection. It is very typical for Putin in general, and if you take his speech in its entirety, nothing has changed fundamentally,” Kim said.< /p>
Continues to show strength
The psychologist believes that the path is upset and has features of non-verbal manifestations of insecurity. He gets excited when he talks about NATO. In particular, as Kim recalled, there was an interesting moment when he said that NATO countries are recording reconnaissance from the south of Russia.
For him it is very important. He fears that this will actually happen. However, the path has not completely changed, as it was a notorious person, squeezed, who is trying to demonstrate his strength to the world, at the same time feels insecure, so he remained so, Kim said.
Wants to calm the population
According to the psychologist, the head of the Kremlin made a decision earlier to prevent the possibility of a big war. In particular, there is an example of 2014, an example of 2008. Kim stressed that Putin is from the FSB, and not from the army, therefore he does not offer cardinal solutions, but partial ones. This is an attempt to calm the population and the fear of playing to the end.
“Although now Putin still has nuclear weapons. Nothing else. If the Ukrainians do not obey, what can he do? Will he announce full mobilization? This is not will be very different from what we see now. Therefore, the path has driven itself into a dead end. More and more people in the Kremlin understand that they do not want to stay with him, “added the psychologist.
