Parallel reality in this morning’s Russian papers. #ReadingRussia

A chilling message there to those nations unfortunate to share a border with Russia.

This sounds like the insane propaganda from Goebbels, Hitler. Where did Russians get such a high sense of self worth & sick desire to inflict their suffering on others - instead of ending their own? Most of Russia is run down, archaic, and disadvantaged.

When is reality finally going to hit ruzzia that there will never be another USSR and that they are not the centre of the universe, that their continual lies and propaganda will be the downfall of their country including their economy. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🙄🙄

@wartranslated Russia is delusional.

Anecdotal observation from friends in Moscow this week - average Russians now publically express disillusionment at the Ukraine invasion, stating the people of Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia are Ukrainian - not Russian.

In Poland, under Russia's dominance I remember hearing the same propaganda: it is impossible to survive without Russia, our great brother who provides... blah, blah, blah - some people seemed to believe that.

@Helcarax1 Russia is a Nazi State, it’s that simple and just like it predecessor needs to be crushed and broke apart.

Careful Steve... It is impressive how the likes of yourself and your colleague @StephenMcDonell walk the fine line and still manage to produce profesional journalist content in the face of such repression of foreign western media in these countries. Thank you.👏
