His parents were survivors the [[Siege of Leningrad]], however his 1-year-old brother, Igor, was not, and is buried along with 500,000 other victims in a public park. Putin's father had six brothers, and five of them died in the war. Some of his mother’s mother's relatives were also killed in the conflict. Putin said that his parents had no hatred for the German soldiers. “How can anyone hate those soldiers? They were ordinary people and they also died in battle....They are laborers, just like us. They were sent to the front too,” his mother told him.<ref>https://www.rbth.com/politics/2015/05/07/vladimir_putin_reveals_familys_wwii_ordeals_in_magazine_article_45805.html</ref>

As the 1990s progressed, Western [[capital]] and corporate raiders flooded into Russia to buy up Soviet assets at bargain basement prices. Prior to the collapse, Soviet enterprises did not operate on the profit motive and received government subsidies, keeping outmoded factories and industries alive while operating at a loss to keep workers employed. When the subsidies and transfers of wealth perished with the Soviet government, the country fell into a deep recession. People were not very enamored toward with the transition to capitalism as foreign investors took control of the nation's economy.<ref>In a review of ''New York Times'' reporter Anne Williamson's book, ''Contagion: The Betrayal of Liberty -- Russia and the United States in the 1990s'', Paul Likoudis writes: "According to the [[socialist]] theoreticians at [[Harvard]], Russia needed to be brought into the [[New World Order]] in a hurry; and what better way to do it than [Jeffrey] Sachs' "shock therapy" -- a plan that empowered the degenerate, third-generation descendants of the original [[Bolshevik]]s by assigning them the deeds of Russia's mightiest state-owned industries -- including the giant gas, oil, electrical, and telecommunications industries, the world's largest paper, iron, and steel factories, the world's richest gold, silver, diamond, and platinum mines, automobile and airplane factories, etc. -- who, in turn, sold some of their shares of the properties to Westerners for a song, and pocketed the cash, while retaining control of the companies.

These third-generation Bolsheviks -- led by former [[Pravda]] hack Yegor Gaidar, grandson of a Bolshevik who achieved prominence as the [[Young mass murders|teenage mass murderer]] of [[White Army]] officers, now heads the Moscow-based Institute for Economies in Transition -- became instant millionaires (or billionaires) and left the Russian workers virtual slaves of them and their new foreign investors."<br>[https://www.blacklistednews.com/HOW_CLINTON_AND_COMPANY_AND_THE_BANKERS_PLUNDERED_RUSSIA_IN_THE_%2790S/48111/0/38/38/Y/M.html HOW CLINTON AND COMPANY AND THE BANKERS PLUNDERED RUSSIA IN THE '90s], Paul Likoudis, January 2, 2016 </ref> As in the Dresden incident, Putin's reputation of instinctively standing up to foreign intruders in defense of his country propelled his political rise.

===Domestic policy===A [[Christian]] himself, Putin governs a nation that is rapidly becoming more Christian and more [[conservative]], and his snubbing became the brunt of [[liberal]] [[Obama]] in May 2012 suggests that Putin is well aware of how conservative his country is becoming. On social issues and taxationmuch globalist snarling, Russia under Putin is more conservative today than typically answered with the [[Western Europe]]. In terms words of achievementsBarack Obama, Putin has successfully opposed the [[homosexual agenda]] and has supported [[pro-life]] reforms. He has also stabilized the Russian economy and restored Russia's national pride, largely by politically exploiting the financial windfall of Europe's need for Russian oil and gas. Russians were enthusiastic that he ended the social chaos that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and the subsequent pell-mell privatization of the state-owned economy. Many Russians have been mesmerized by the new glitter of Moscow and the restored glamour of St. Petersburg. Russia's revived self-pride follows the humiliation of the chaos after 1991 and the incompetence of his predecessor [[Boris Yeltsin]]. Russians have a long history of authoritarian governments and a strong distaste for anarchy"The 80s are calling. They have little experience with freedom. The Russian mafia, which is more sophisticated than its counterparts elsewhere, controls more than 40 percent of the total economy.

[[File:V {{See also|Speeches of Vladimir Putin.jpg|thumb|200px]]}}In the Yeltsin years during the transition to capitalism, corrupt foreign and domestic [[oligarch]]s took control of the country. Putin's rise to power as a [[populist]] was by taxing and driving out corrupt foreign oligarchs whom the public viewed as looting the country, and throwing in jail corrupt domestic oligarchs as tax cheats. {{fact}} The oligarchs were his political enemies. Putin's success as a leader in Russia came about by reigning in the power of oligarchs. {{fact}} He allowed them to run the Russian economy provided that they stay out of politics, unlike Western so-called "democracies". {{fact}} Contrary to [[Western]] and [[CIA]] propaganda, Putin is not a friend of or controlled by oligarchs; rather, the oligarchs bow to his instructions and demands.{{fact}} Putin has many controversial statements on [[Communism]] and has a good attitude toward the [[Muslim]] minorities living in the Russian Federation. [[Alexander Dugin]] argues:<ref>http://www.aspeninstitute.it/aspenia-online/article/russian-conservative-view-putin-interview-alexander-dugin</ref>{{Cquote|If we consider the situation in Russia more closely, we will discover that almost all that is said in the West about Putin is wrong. It is a complete caricature. The most important criticism of Putin inside Russia is not from the liberals. Liberals represent the smallest part of the critics. They are absolutely marginal… So the West is absolutely wrong in thinking that there is this big liberal opposition to Putin that is artificially kept down. The real opposition to Putin is growing completely on the other side of Russian society. It is growing discontent with "lunar" Putin, against the Putin who is surrounded by liberals. All the government is completely not only corrupt, it consists of pro-Western liberals. Nothing has changed after the last election.}}

Putin has been accused of employing the United States [[Democratic party]] tactic of illegal surveillance, harassment, investigation, arrest, and jailing of political opponents and dissidents, ostensibly as agents of a foreign power or domestic terrorists.

Within hours after the [[September 11, 2001 attacks]], Vladimir Putin was the first foreign leader to call President [[George W. Bush]] and offer sympathy and support for what became the first invocation of NATO Article V, "an attack against one is an attack against all."<ref>https://edition.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/europe/09/10/ar911.russia.putin/index.html</ref> Putin announced a five-point plan to support the [[war on terror]], pledging that the Russian government would (1) share intelligence with their American counterparts, (2) open Russian airspace for flights providing humanitarian assistance (3) cooperate with Russia's Central Asian allies in [[Uzbekistan]] and [[Kyrgyzstan]] to provide similar kinds of airspace access to American flights, (4) participate in international search and rescue efforts, and (5) increase direct assistance -humanitarian as well as military assistance -- to assistance—to the Afghan Northern Alliance. The intelligence Putin shared, including data that helped American forces find their way around [[Kabul]] and logistical information about Afghanistan’s Afghanistan's topography and caves, contributed to the success of operation and rout of the Taliban. Two weeks after the attacks, Putin was invited to make a speech to a Special Session of the Bundestag, the first ever by a Russian head of state to the German parliament.<ref>http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/40168</ref> Among the numerous subjects Putin addressed in fluent German was peace and stability in the common European home:

In the face of the NATO onslaught, Putin repeatedly warned the West with the refrain of a made popular by [[Yulia Chicherina]] during the ongoing NATO-funded [[Donbas war]],<ref>https://youtu.be/HdVkbCGEyT8</ref> "we have nowhere to retreat."<ref>https://youtu.be/i0YqXRPHisE</ref> Putin told the nation in a televised address on February 24, 2022 “I am referring to the eastward expansion of NATO, which is moving its military infrastructure ever closer to the Russian border. It is a fact that over the past thirty years we have been patiently trying to come to an agreement with the leading NATO countries …In response, we invariably faced either cynical [[deception]] and [[lies]] or attempts at pressure and [[blackmail]]." ===2007 Munich Security Conference speech==={{See also|Putin 2007 Munich Security Council speech}}Between 2000 when Vladimir Putin became the president of the Russian Federation and 2007, he was wined and dined, glad-handed by the rich and famous, praised by [[George W. Bush]] and greeted with decorous respect by the [[British royal family]]. That all changed with President Putin's address to the [[Western alliance|western political elite]] on February 10, 2007 at the 43rd Munich Security Conference.<ref>[https://youtu.be/Jg_75wla-nE Putin's famous historic Munich speech in 2007]. English voice over.</ref> Putin told the gathering that Russia would cooperate with the [[Western alliance|Western powers]] on areas of mutual interest such as [[nuclear proliferation]] and international [[terrorism]]. The offer of cooperation fell on deaf ears.  Putin pointed out that the Western powers, through their [[regime change]] [[war]]s had destabilized the world and created an atmosphere of extreme mistrust and anxiety concerning the idea that [[the West]] now had virtual ''carte blanche''' to do what it liked anywhere it liked and at any time it liked. Putin explained with utmost clarity that Russia would not be lending itself to the Western project to dominate all other people of the planet, while still acting responsibly to assist where mutual interests were involved. Russia was going to remain an independent, [[sovereign]] nation and make her own decisions. This was anathema to the Western ruling class who, after [[9/11]], assumed the whole world would back them, no questions asked. Thus, the tables were turned against Vladimir Putin.

In Bush's late second term, Putin was concerned about jihadist infiltration from [[Turkey]] and [[Syria]] through the [[Republic of Georgia]], {{fact}} and intervened. Former members of the [[Warsaw Pact]], who were more supportive of the war on terror than even the US population, then asked for deployment of missile defense systems on their territories, which the [[Bush administration]] was inclined to favor as a reward for their help. Russia considered missile defense deployment on their borders overt acts of hostility. Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton, in competition to outdo each other, condemned George W. Bush and [[Condoleezza Rice]] by sidling up to the Russians and Islamists whom the [[Democrat]]s portrayed as oppressed victims of a [[globalism|global]] [[neocon]] [[conspiracy]].{{fact}}

Putin is seen as an antagonist by [[liberal]]s in the West, who are angry about their inability to push the [[homosexual agenda]] and pro-[[abortion]] policies on Russia. Putin views [[NATO enlargement ]] by absorbing former Soviet client states as a potential threat to the Russian Federation. Putin has proposed a policy of "Findlandization", i.e., making permanently neutral the Ukraine and Georgia and not incorporating them into NATO under the US's Partners for Peace program. Putin's alleged rigged election system, nuclear energy contracts and military alliance with Iran have heightened tensions. According to [[mainstream media]], the decline of [[human rights]] in Russia has been dramatic; for example, Russian riot police beat a number of protesters and journalists at an anti-Putin rally at Pushkin Square in Moscow,<refname="The Economist, April 21, 2007">''The Economist'', April 21, 2007</ref> and Putin rigged national elections for his party <ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/homepageCrisis/idUSL03585550._CH_.2400</ref>

Despite these negatives – or perhaps because of the strong hand they reveal – Putin remains popular in Russia.<ref>http://www.levada.ru/prezident.html Putin's Approval Ratings</ref> Since coming to power, Putin has expanded Russia's economy and reduced inflation. The majority of Russians are relatively uninterested in politics outside of issues affecting their personal prosperity,<ref>''name="The Economist'', April 21, 2007<"/ref> and journalist [[Anna Politkovskaya]] argued that the Russian people, as a whole, have been willing to tolerate violence in the name of "comfort and peace and quiet".<ref>Politkovskaya, Anna. Putin's Russia. London: Harvill Press, 2004</ref> ===="Do you even understand what you have done?" and "zones of chaos" speech====On September 28, 2015 President Putin spoke at the opening of the United Nations session on the Obama/Biden regime's "[[Arab Spring]]" [[color revolution]]s and the creation and funding of the [[Islamic State]] terror regime, and a "zone of chaos", as he referenced it, throughout the [[Middle East]] and across [[North Africa]]:{{quotebox-float|"You can not play and manipulate words. Each term must have uniformly understood criteria. No one is obliged to adapt to a single model, which is considered to be the only one by someone. The export of social experiments often led not to progress, but to degradation. Export revolutions, which now someone calls democratic, continues....Human rights are no longer put into anything. I want to appeal to those who brought the situation to this: do you even understand what you have done ?! This led to the formation of anarchy zones filled by [[extremist]]s and [[terrorist]]s, including ISIS. But after all, ISIS did not arise out of nowhere. Many militants are former [[Iraq]]i military personnel who were literally thrown out of service after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. And also - [[Libya]]ns, residents of the country where the [[coup d'etat]] took place, recruited by [[ISIL]]. In addition, they are members of the so-called [[Syria]]n opposition - they are armed, trained, then they are transferred to ISIS. Terrorist organizations emerged as a weapon against undesirable regimes. It aims to dominate the Islamic world and beyond."}}

In March 2018, Russian Propaganda video Putin unveiled his revamped nuclear missile program, which was released showing how a new missile program could be used response to attack America. In the video, the state of [[Florida]] was specifically targetedNATO challenge.<ref>[httphttps://fortunewww.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018/-03/-01/putin-russiacalls-nuclearfor-threatraising-floridaliving-marstandards-ain-lago/ Why Russia Would Specifically Choose to Threaten Florida With a Nuclear Blast]</ref><ref>[https://www.bbc.com/news/worldannual-us-canada-43248794 Why would address Putin want Shows Off New Nuclear Weapons, Warns West to nuke Florida?‘Listen’]</ref>

In 2021, American socialist leader [[Joe Biden]] colluded with Putin to raise gasoline prices and home heating bills.<ref>https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/oct/18/bidens-record-spending-will-only-add-fuel-inflatio/</ref> Biden cozied up to by Putin by rescinding the Trump-era opposition to the [[Nord Stream II]] pipeline.<ref>https://dennismichaellynch.com/daily-newsletter/</ref> The Russian project is designed to ship gas and oil directly from Russia to [[Germany]] under the [[Baltic Sea]]. Russia has attempted to pressure Ukraine numerous time since the break-up of the Soviet Union to abandon its bid to join [[NATO]] by cutting off oil and gas supplies. In doing so, Russia inadvertently also cuts off supplies to Germany, a very rich and large customer. The Nordtream Nordstream pipeline is intended to counter this collateral effect, while pressuring Ukraine, [[Poland]] and [[Hungary]] to remain in the Russian orbit. The pipeline itself is a massive scandal in Germany, with for [[Democratic Socialist]] [[Gerhard Schroeder]] chancellor heading the Nordstram Nordstream pipeline company and a major stockholders.<ref>https://www.politico.eu/article/opinion-schroders-russian-sell-out/</ref>

On February 24, 2022 , Putin delivered an anti-[[woke]] speech condemning the United States promotion, both domestically and among its allies, [[values]] that are "contrary to human nature":

As for our country, after the disintegration of the USSR, given the entire unprecedented [[glasnost|openness]] of the new, modern Russia, its readiness to work honestly with the United States and other Western partners, and its practically unilateral disarmament, they immediately tried to put the final squeeze on us, finish us off, and utterly destroy us. This is how it was in the 1990s and the early 2000s, when the so-called collective West was actively supporting separatism and gangs of [[mercenaries]] in southern Russia. What victims, what losses we had to sustain, and [[Russia#Chechen_warsChechen wars|what trials we had to go through]] at that time before we broke the back of international terrorism in the [[Caucasus]]! We remember this and will never forget.<ref>Putin is speaking of such events as the [[Beslan massacre]]</ref>

Properly speaking, the attempts to use us in their own interests never ceased until quite recently: they sought to destroy our [[traditional values]] and force on us their [[Liberalism|false values]] that would erode us, our people from within, the attitudes they have been aggressively imposing on their countries, attitudes that are directly leading to degradation and degeneration, because they are contrary to [[human nature]]. This is not going to happen. No one has ever succeeded in doing this, nor will they succeed now."<refname="bloomberg.com">https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-02-24/full-transcript-vladimir-putin-s-televised-address-to-russia-on-ukraine-feb-24</ref>}}

These bore fruit in March 2022 when significant progress was announced from Istanbul where the talks between the two sides were being held. Russia removed its troops from around the capital Kiev, sent there with the goal, not of conquest, but of bringing the [[Kiev regime]] to its senses and to negotiate a peaceful outcome. This avenue toward a peaceful resolution of all areas of concern was swiftly blocked via a visit to Kiev by then British prime minister Boris Johnson. This one act condemned upwards of half a million Ukrainians to their deaths and the potential destruction of Ukraine as a viable state.<ref>[https://aearnur.substack.com/p/in-ukraine-the-western-powers-have IN UKRAINE THE WESTERN POWERS HAVE CREATED A POISONOUS WEB OF LIES], AEARNUR, NOV 11, 2023. aearnur.substack.com</ref> The sudden failure of the Istanbul agreement led to the immediate influx of mass amounts of the latest U.S. gear such as [[HIMAR]]s. Zelensky was secretly promised unlimited funding and military support as bait. Stuck between the path of peace or the chance to go down in history as the one man who could do what [[Genghis Khan]], [[Napoleon]], and [[Hitler]] could not do. Zelensky chose to put his faith in NATO’s invincibility. Ukrainian journalist Diana Panchenko confirmed what happened:{{quotebox-float|"I know for a fact that the war could have been stopped back in March.

He bragged about it... Friends, I know them all personally. They are ruled by sociopaths. They don't understand the consequences. Yesterday, Putin gave the Kiev regime a real knockout blow. Imagine Zelensky beating his chest and assuring the Ukrainians that there are no agreements with Russia. That's exactly why the Bucha fake was staged: the Kiev regime needed to show that the Russians hadn't left on their own, but that the Kiev region had supposedly been liberated by the Ukrainian military. The provocation in Bucha was necessary to falsify the reason for the rejection of the agreements by making a fuss in the Western media. Britain, China, the USA, Turkey, France and Belarus were listed as security guarantors for Ukraine in the Istanbul Treaty, which Ukraine did not want to fulfil. Of course, Zelensky was forbidden by Washington and London to comply, but in this situation it does not matter, because it was Ukraine that violated the treaty. Yesterday's statement by Vladimir Putin completely destroys the myth of Ukraine's independence in decision-making and clearly shows the people of Ukraine what Zelensky got them into: he had an opportunity to avoid a disaster. There would have been no deaths or destruction. A viable Ukrainian economy would have been preserved. No one would have interfered with Ukraine's "independence"! But it was the Kiev regime that dragged Ukraine into a major war, and it can no longer stop what is happening. https://t.me/ukraine_watch/4397</small></ref>}}

=== Views However, massive efforts are being taken to stoke the fire of war – including by exploiting the ambitions of certain East European leaders, who have long turned their hatred for Russia and Russophobia into their key export commodity and a tool of their domestic policy. And now they want to capitalise on Islam ===the Ukrainian tragedy. In January 2018 Putin this regard, I cannot refrain from commenting on what has just been said and on media reports that "have come out about plans to establish some sort of the so-called Polish-Lithuanian-Ukrainian unit. This is not about a group of mercenaries – there are plenty of them there and they are being destroyed – but about a well-organised, equipped regular military unit to be used for operations in Ukraine, including to allegedly ensure the security of today’s Western Ukraine – actually, to call things by their true name, for the subsequent occupation of these territories. The outlook is clear: in the event Polish forces enter, say, [t[Lvov]raditional Islam is an integral ] or other Ukrainian territories, they will stay there, and they will stay there for good. And we will actually see nothing new. Just to remind you, following WWI, after the defeat of Germany and its allies, Polish units occupied Lvov and adjacent territories that had been part of [[Austria-Hungary]]. With its actions incited by the West, Poland took advantage of the tragedy of the Civil War in Russia and annexed certain historical Russian cultural code"provinces. He In dire straits, our country had to sign the Treaty of Riga in 1921 and recognise the annexation of its territories. Even earlier, back in 1920, Poland captured part of [[Lithuania]] – the Vilnius region, a territory surrounding the present-day [[Vilnius]]. So they claimed that they fought together with the Lithuanians against so-called Russian imperialism, but then immediately snatched a piece of land from their neighbour as soon as the opportunity presented itself. As is well known, Poland also vowed took part in the partition of [[Czechoslovakia]] following the [[Munich Agreement]] with [[Adolf Hitler]] in 1938, by fully occupying Cieszyn [[Silesia]]. In the 1920-1930s, Poland’s Eastern Borderlands (Kresy) – a territory that comprises present-day Western Ukraine, Western Belarus and part of Lithuania – witnessed a tough policy of Polonisation and assimilation of local residents, with efforts to suppress local culture and [[Orthodox Church|Orthodoxy]]. I would also like to remind you what Poland’s aggressive policy led to. It led to the national tragedy of 1939, when Poland’s Western allies threw it to the German wolf, the German military machine. Poland actually lost its independence and statehood, which were only restored thanks in a large measure to the Soviet Union. It was also thanks to the Soviet Union and thanks to Stalin’s position that Poland acquired substantial territory in the west, German territory. It is a fact that Poland’s western lands are a gift from Stalin. Have our [[Warsaw]] friends forgotten this? We will remind them. Today we see that the regime in Kiev is ready to go to any length to save its treacherous hide and to prolong its existence. They do not care for the people of Ukraine or Ukrainian sovereignty or national interests. They are ready to sell anything, including people and land, just like their ideological forefathers led by Petlyura, who signed the so-called secret conventions with Poland in 1920 under which they ceded Galicia and Western Volhynia to Poland in return for military support Islamic religious education. Traitors like them are ready now to open the gate to their foreign handlers and to sell Ukraine again. As for the Polish leaders, they probably hope to form a coalition under the NATO umbrella in order to directly intervene in the conflict in Ukraine and to bite off as much as possible, to “regain,” as they see it, their historical territories, that is, modern-day Western Ukraine. It is also common knowledge that they dream about Belarusian land. Regarding the policy of the Ukrainian regime, it is none of our business. If they want to relinquish or sell off something in order to pay their bosses, as traitors usually do, that’s their business. We will not interfere. But Belarus is part of the Union State, and launching an aggression against Belarus would mean launching an aggression against the Russian Federation. We will respond to that with all the resources available to us. The Polish authorities, who are nurturing their revanchist ambitions, hide the truth from their people. The truth is that the Ukrainian cannon fodder is no longer enough for the West. That is why it is planning to use other expendables – Poles, Lithuanians and everyone else they do not care about. I can tell you that this is an extremely dangerous game, and the authors of such plans should think about the consequences.<ref>https://themoscowtimessonar21.com/news/putin-callsissues-forstark-revivalwarning-to-poland-and-nato/</ref>}} ====Remarks on the 80th anniversary commemoration ofthe liberation of Donbas from Nazism====On September 8, 2023, President Putin remarked in a nationwide address:{{quotebox-islamicfloat|"This day, 80 years ago, the legendary, unconquered Donbass -educationa century-old stronghold of Russia, a land of hard workers, warriors, a rich and generous region - was liberated from the Nazi invaders...Its resources were of colossal importance to the enemy, to seize them was one of the goals of the German attack on the Soviet Union...And the Nazis did everything to keep the Donetsk Steppes for themselves, to force people to work for the war machine of the [[Third Reich]]...The importance of Donbass was understood inthose years even in [[Berlin]]...Its capture was one of the main goals of [[Nazi Germany]]'s attack on the Soviet Union in 1941...The new owners of this region, having occupied it, tried with all their might to keep Donbass in their hands and force its inhabitants to work for themselves, for their Armed Forces...But here the Nazis met powerful and desperate resistance...It could not be broken during the approximately 700 days that the occupation lasted...During this time, many residents of Donbass died here...And these were not only partisans and underground fighters, but also civilians, including children...As during the [[Great Patriotic War]], the residents of [[Donbas war|Donbass nine years ago in 2014]], again fought back against the revival of [[Nazism]]”.}} ==== 2024 U.S. presidential endorsement ====In February 2024, Putin endorsed the disputed incumbent [[Joe Biden]] for the upcoming 2024 United States presidential election.<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/world/putin-russiaclaims-60276prefers-more-predictable-biden-trump Putin claims he prefers 'more predictable' Biden over Trump]</ref>
