“There’s something about the human being – whatever it is that makes us conscious that interacts with the chaotic potential that constitutes reality and extracts out from that the order within which we live and that there’s something divine about that, and that’s the value of the human being."

Apparently, part two of the 'Putin' documentary will be aired shortly according to Russia Insider: https://russia-insider.com/en/its-here-putin-extraordinary-new-documentary-english-subtitles-video/ri22884

In "PUTIN', Kondrashov spent over a year digging into the Putin family story. It is a highly personal film, switching back and forth between Putin talking about world events, and vignettes from his childhood, interviews with school teachers, childhood friends, stories of his parents, his grandparents, the villages they came from, etc. There are interviews with world leaders like Gerhard Schroeder of Germany and Silvio Berlusconi of Italy, his inner circle, and with everyday people who encountered him in one capacity or another.

The first part was very good or so I thought. The documentary showed amongst others life after the Soviet Union collapsed with all the heartache and poverty this entailed. At the same time I think it holds up a mirror for the West, for instance some young Russian people are really motivated and dedicated to Russia and wish to contribute. Their parents suffered greatly, but life has changed now and the kids are an example of that change. It also reminded me of how little motivated we are in the West (no surprise) and why we need Jordan Peterson (and Putin's Russia) to show us the way. Just some thoughts.

Russian General and political figure, Konstantin Petrov was a doctor of technical sciences and a member of the NGO “International Informatization Academy.". He was fired from the Russian Armed forces in the 2000s for unknown reasons. Then, he became one of the first scholars to tour Russia as a lecturer, with a special set of talks titled “Secret World Governance” – in which he told all of that, which is today considered “conspiracy”, including the programme for the “Golden Billion” (something along the lines of eugenics that seeks to preserve the wealthy population of the world.)

But as we know, the word “conspiracy” itself was propagated by the CIA in order to make all those who speak up seem like loonies. In this outtake, General Petrov speaks of the general structure of world governance by the elite. At that – he makes it clear, that current Russian president Putin never entered the equation as any kind of competition. However, having come from a Soviet intelligence background, he was able to play by the rules just long enough, to establish his own.

Petrov mentions the position of current Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu – which could be viewed detrimentally. However, his statement must be evaluated in the context of time, before Shoigu became the Minister of Defense, under Putin. Petrov died suddenly in 2009 – his lectures are difficult to find on the internet, but they are there, many hours of them. I encourage you to make up your own about this.

Thanks for posting this video, C.a. It's one of the better video's I have come across - that nicely sums up the Political climate that Putin stepped into when Yetsin handed over "Command" to Putin and gives a good overview of the (foreign) elite who were operating and manipulating the economy and Russian resources for their own benefit. The video even describes the current situation between Russia and the U.K. and the apparent reasons behind it - to destabilize Russia and neutralize Putin.

It deeply troubles me, to recognize, that those "same foreign elite and International players" have also destabilized "my own Country" - as their private playground and home base, by stripping our own economy and precious resources, while they orchestrate their Power-plays of greed, for self entitlement and possession of wealth.

I can only pray, that the Diplomatic efforts, put forth by Russia, might be adopted by more Countries in the International arena, so that we can finally come to our senses and find Peaceful solutions to disagreements, so as to unify our efforts, as Citizens of these Countries - hopefully towards World Peace.

Маленький эпизод, произошедший по окончании парада на Красной площади.
Ветеран Великой Отечественной войны генерал-майор Дмитрий Сыркашев рассказал подробности того, как после Парада Победы охрана намеревалась оттеснить его от президента России Владимира Путина, но глава государства дал «отбой» телохранителям и сам подошел к 93-летнему орденоносцу.

Когда мы с трибуны сошли, между нами втиснулось человек 20 фотографов, охраны... Он увидел, как меня там чуть не затоптали… И меня, так сказать, спас. И я вместе с ним пошел к Могиле Неизвестного Солдата…

«Это, конечно же, была непреднамеренная случайность. Президент уже обратил внимание на необходимость исключения таких ситуаций впредь», — пресс-секретарь президента России Дмитрий Песков прокомментировал произошедшее.
От себя добавлю, что налицо потрясающе своевременная и очень правильная реакция на ситуацию.

Translation
A small episode that occurred at the end of the parade on red square.
A veteran of the great Patriotic war, major-General Dmitry Syrkashev told the details of how after the Victory Parade security intended to oust him from the President of Russia Vladimir Putin, but the President gave the "all clear" the guard and himself approached the 93-year-old decorated.

When we came down from the rostrum, between the two of us squeezed 20 people photographers, security... He saw how I almost got trampled... And I was, so to say, saved by him. And I'm with him went to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier...

"This is, of course, was an unintended accident. The President has already drawn attention to the need to eliminate such situations from now on," — the press Secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov commented on the incident.
From myself I will add that there is a stunningly timely and very correct reaction to the situation.

May 24. 2018 - Direct Line with Vladimir Putin to take place ahead of 2018 FIFA World Cup
Direct Line with Vladimir Putin to take place ahead of 2018 FIFA World Cup

There will be certain innovations, both technological and informational ones, the Kremlin spokesman noted.

The Direct Line with Vladimir Putin will take place ahead of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, that will be held on June 14 - July 15 in Russia, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in an interview with TV channel NTV.

"It [the Direct Line] will be held ahead of the World Cup, and we will tell about it in due time. There will be certain innovations, both technological and informational ones," he said, but did not disclose any details.

Peskov noted that the idea of the event will be the same: the president’s communication with citizens and feedback. The presidential spokesman reiterated that the Direct Line is a unique format in the world.

Peskov commented on the World Cup, saying that it "will be the best football championship that has even been organized on the Earth."

The Direct Line with Vladimir Putin is an annual question and answer session during which the president answers Russians’ questions live. This Q&A session was first held on December 24, 2001, on national TV and radio channels. It has been held annually since then, except for 2004 and 2012. In 2017, the Direct Line was held on June 15.

The format of the 2018 televised Q&A marathon with Russian President Vladimir Putin, dubbed The Direct Line, will include various technological innovations, however, the essence of this unique event will remain the same, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov informed journalists.

"This year, The Direct Line will include various innovations. The essence of this unique world event with regard to its content and technology will remain the same, but it will be somewhat fine-tuned regarding the geographical and communication scale, using the technological achievements available to us," the Kremlin spokesman said.

He added that more details on the format of the upcoming Direct Line would come later.

Путин призвал Запад одуматься

Putin urged the West to come to their senses
27.05.2018 - 5: 30
For a long time, Western States have been trying unsuccessfully to destroy the Russian economy, imposing sanctions against the Russian authorities, businessmen and the state as a whole.

Vladimir Putin drew attention to this failed policy. He criticized colleagues from abroad in a firm form.

On the sidelines of the St. Petersburg international economic forum, Russian President Vladimir Putin tried to put out the aggressive attitude of foreign politicians who advocate the preservation and/or tightening of sanctions against Russia.

The Russian leader demanded not to cross the "red line" in relations with Moscow.

In particular, Putin called on the international elite to respect the interests of Russia, and also expressed fears that the North Atlantic Alliance commanders have "played" in the development of the organization to the East.

"Not only has NATO approached our borders, we have a suspicion that tomorrow Ukraine will also be included there and there will put some radars and missile defense systems," the President said.

In addition, during the forum, Vladimir Putin reminded the guests of the role of the West in the coup in Ukraine.

He wondered why it was to promote the change of power, if the state and so there are Pro-Western policies in the face of Yulia Tymoshenko and Viktor Yushchenko.

"Well, there are some boundaries, you know, the "red line" can not be crossed. Let's also respect our interests, " he added.

Thus, it is reasonable to assume that Putin thus gave another chance to international politicians to think again and start developing rational, profitable relationships.

As for those politicians who are trying to tarnish Russia's reputation by all means, the message for them was much harsher: the Russian leader clearly explained that Moscow "will not kneel".

Putin to hold Q&A marathon on June 7

Russian President Vladimir Putin will hold a televised Q&A marathon, dubbed The Direct Line, on June 7, the Kremlin press service said on Sunday.

This will be Putin’s first Q&A marathon during his new six-year presidential term and the 16th since 2001. Putin has answered the questions of the country’s citizens 11 times as the president and four times as the prime minister.

According to the Kremlin press service, The Direct Line will start at noon Moscow Time and will be broadcast by Russia's TV Channel One, Rossiya 1, Rossiya 24, OTR, radio stations Mayak, Vesti FM and Radio Rossii.

Starting from 8 a.m. on Sunday and until the program’s end, the questions may be submitted by phone, through SMS and MMS messages, the website or a special mobile app. Users of VKontakte (VK) and Odnoklassniki social networks may also send their questions and video addresses. Users of Moskva-Putinu and OK Live mobile apps will be able to contact with the studio via a direct video link-up. The president will answer the most interesting questions live.

Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters earlier that this year’s Q&A marathon would include various technological innovations. "The essence of this unique world event with regard to its content and technology will remain the same, but it will be somewhat fine-tuned regarding the geographical and communication scale, using the technological achievements available to us," the Kremlin spokesman said.

The annual Direct Line with Vladimir Putin is a live TV broadcast, during which the head of state answers questions from the residents of Russia and other countries. The very first Q&A session with the Russian president was held on December 24, 2001. Since then, Direct Lines have been held annually, except for 2004 and 2012. Last year, The Direct Line was held on June 15.

In 2001, Putin received 400,000 questions, and later their number has been increasing and now stands at several millions. The record of The Direct Line was set in 2013, when Putin answered questions during 4 hours and 48 minutes. In 2017, the conversation took 3 hours 56 minutes.

Putin Owns Macron like a boss!

Russia Insight Published on May 25, 2018

A single Finnish company invested the equivalent of almost half of all French investment in Russia, President Vladimir Putin told his counterpart Emmanuel Macron at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF).

“Finland’s Fortum invested €6 billion in Russia, while the whole of France invested €15 billion,” Putin said jokingly. Moments earlier, the French President boasted about the figure, proudly stating his country was second among Russia's foreign direct investors.

Russian President Vladimir Putin (R) shakes hands with French President Emmanuel Macron during a meeting in St. Petersburg, Russia May 24, 2018. Kirill KudryavtsevFrance signs contracts for €1bn direct investment to Russia According to Putin, the Finnish energy firm was an example that the Russian economy is open to foreign investment, pointing out that the company was given access to sensitive objects in Siberia.

The Russian president said France is an old and reliable partner of Russia, as well as Germany. "We very much count on the fact that our French friends, companies will develop in Russia, will receive income and profit.”

Putin also noted that Russian-French business ties are diversified since the countries work in many spheres from space to pharmaceuticals. But Russia's leading economic partner is now China, not France or Germany, Putin pointed out.

“Trade with Europe was worth $450 billion once, now it has fallen by half. With China, trade is going to reach $100 billion soon,” the president said.

Macron, who spoke before Putin at SPIEF, said that France wants to become the largest direct investor in Russia. "The source of motivation is that our French enterprises now employ 170,000 Russian citizens,” he said. The French president added that, in the last 10 years, no French company quit the Russian market despite the troubles in the Russian economy, it is a “strong signal”.
