The imperial syndrome is progressing: what mission did Putin come up with for himself Angela Figin

Russian President Vladimir Putin has become the embodiment of the law of empire and expansion. He was completely taken over by the manic idea of ​​becoming the master of a large territory.

The first manifestation of the dictator's imperial syndrome was the Munich speech, where he challenged the West and the United States and declared that he was going to fight for the redivision of the world. Russian opposition journalist Igor Yakovenko told Channel more about this

What Putin is obsessed with

At first, Putin had the goals of the St. Petersburg criminal – to steal as much money as possible. Before the presidency, the current head of the Kremlin was involved in corruption, and after becoming the head of the country, he still perceived this position as an opportunity to steal.

Over time, the dictator I realized that the most valuable thing is power. The imperial syndrome, the feeling of his own greatness and the fact that he dominates a large territory led to the fact that Putin received an impulse to expand this territory, Yakovenko said.

Nor for It’s no secret that the dictator dreams of at least a partial restoration of the Soviet Union in the form of three states – Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. Of course, Putin will not stop there. Further in the dreams are Kazakhstan and the Baltic countries.

By the way, before the full-scale invasion, Putin repeatedly repeated that the biggest tragedy of the 20th century was the collapse of the USSR.

The head of the Kremlin perceives himself as a messiah who must restore a giant empire. Perhaps this happened as a result of a kind of cult of Putin, when those around him hammered into his head that he was supposedly “great” and could realize his mission, added the Russian opposition journalist.

Unfortunately, hundreds of thousands of people became victims of Putin’s socio-psychological illness. The closest example is Adolf Hitler, who was obsessed with the idea of ​​the Third Reich.
