Putin is in a difficult position: how Macron “nullified” the dictator’s main tool of blackmail Victoria Grabovskaya

Russian dictator Since the beginning of the war, he has constantly threatened the West with the use of nuclear weapons. However, Emmanuel Macron managed to put Vladimir Putin in his place.

However, Russian Z-patriots do not like the “balanced” position of the head of the Kremlin. Russian publicist and opposition politician from the United States Andrei Piontkovsky told 24 Channel about this, noting that Putin did not live up to the hopes of Russian propagandists.

Propagandists in panic

Emmanuel Macron managed to bring the Russians to panic propagandists with his “two-step”.

At first, according to Piontkovsky, he said that he was going to send French troops to Ukraine, and that the goal of France and its allies was the unconditional defeat of Russia.

Then Putin decided to scare with nuclear weapons again and ran into Macron’s second move. He said that the French military is already participating in the fighting in Ukraine along with the British military. They help maintain the Storm Shadow/SCALP-EG long-range missiles. He also reminded Putin that France is a nuclear power, noted the opposition politician.

After this, Russian Z-patriots expected Russia to attack France strike with nuclear weapons or conventional weapons, which have “no analogues” in the world.

“Putin found himself in a difficult situation , because the Z-patriots, who make up 10 – 15% of the Russian population, do not understand him and demand to answer for the “bazaar”. They were sure that Russia would throw a nuclear bomb, and when the moment came to do this, Putin introduces himself <. strong>“wise and balanced” statesman”,” he emphasized.

Putin's main task

Let us recall that during the economic forum in St. Petersburg, Putin said that Russia had allegedly never “rattled” nuclear weapons. According to him, its use is possible in the event of a “threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity” of Russia.

This statement, according to the publicist, was not calculated to the West, and to the Z-patriots who call on him to strike with a nuclear bomb.

“Putin understands that he lost the war with the West because Macron “nullified” his main tool – nuclear blackmail. Now his task is to remain in power in a country that has been defeated. For Putin, this means staying alive. his entire strategy is aimed at achieving a truce and “selling” it to the Russian population as an “honorable draw,” summed up Andrei Piontkovsky.
