Addressing MOSCOW NEWS 26 April 2006:- “The United States is placing its occupation troops in one country after another. This is the de facto situation in Bosnia for 9 years, in Kosovo and Afghanistan for 5 years each, in Iraq for 3 years so far, but it will be a long time there. There is little difference between NATO’s actions and individual US actions. Clearly seeing that Russia poses no threat tothem, NATO is methodically and persistently developing its military apparatus to the East of Europe and into the continental reach of Russia from the South/ There is open material and ideological support for ‘colour’ revolutions and the paradoxical introduction of North Atlantic interests – in Central Asia. All of this leaves no doubt that a complete encirclement of Russia is being prepared, and then the loss of its sovereignty. No, Russia’s accession to such a Euro-Atlantic alliance, ,which conducts propaganda and the violent introduction into various parts of the planet of the ideology and forms of current Western democracy would lead not to expansion, but to the decline of Christian civilisation. In an interview with the German Weekly Der Spiegel of 23 June 2007 Solzhenitsyn said:- “What is happening in Ukraine, even from the falsely-constructed wording if the 1991 referendum (I have written and spoken about this before) is my constant bitterness and pain. The fanatical suppression of the Russian language (which in past polls was recognised as its primary language for more than 60% of the population of Ukraine) is simply an atrocious measure and also directed against the cultural perspective of Ukraine itself. Huge expanses of land that never belonged to historical Ukraine, like Novorussia, Crimea and the entire eastern region, have been forcibly squeezed into the Ukrainian state and its policy of greedy NATO membership.
During Yeltsin’s entire tenure, not a single meeting with Ukrainian Presidents was without capitulations and concessions on his part. The expulsion of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet from Sevastopol (never ceded to the Ukrainian Soviet Republic even under Khrushchev) is a base and vicious desecration of the entire Russian history of the 19th and 20th centuries. Under all these conditions, Russia dares not…..betray the many millions of the Russian population of Ukraine” Of President Putin , Solzhenitsyn said:- “Vladimir Putin – yes, he was an officer in the intelligence services, but he was not a KGB investigator, nor was he the head of a camp in the Gulag. AS for foreign intelligence- that is not a negative in any country – sometimes it even draws praise. George Bush, Senior was not much criticised for being the ex-head of the CIA”. |
