Putin is preparing people for nuclear war

How far will the Kremlin go in its confrontation with the West? Russian Nobel Prize winner Dmitri Muratow (61) expects the worst. He fears that Kremlin boss Vladimir Putin (70) could order a nuclear attack.

«Will Putin press the nuclear button or not? Who knows? No one knows, no one can say for sure,” he told the BBC. But it is not inconceivable.

This is not the first time Muratov has warned of nuclear escalation. As early as March last year, the government-critical journalist said during a hearing in the European Parliament: “I do not rule out that at some point there may actually be a temptation to press the nuclear button.”

Russia wants to cause a “nuclear tsunami”.

A year later, Muratov made a surprising remark. “We see how government propaganda prepares people to think that nuclear war is not a bad thing,” he explains. Nuclear war and nuclear weapons would be advertised “as if they were advertising animal food.”

“They are talking about attacking Britain and France, to create a nuclear tsunami that will wash away America. Why are you saying that? So that people are ready,” said the editor-in-chief of Novaya Gazeta, which is in Russia has been temporarily stopped.

He also has bad news to report on relations between Russia and Ukraine. “Never again will there be normal relations between the people of Russia and Ukraine. Never,” he explains.

Older people in particular support Putin

Only the young Russians make him optimistic at this time. “Our younger generation is great,” explains Muratov. ‘She’s trained. Nearly a million Russians left the country. Many of those who have stayed are categorically against what is happening in Ukraine. They are against the hell that Russia has created there.”

He hopes that the younger generation will survive Putin. Because: Putin’s supporters mainly consist of the elderly. (nad)
