War as Russian political technology

Because the very purpose of its authors is changing.

To be more precise, the real goal simply comes to the surface, and becomes obvious to everyone (including the people in the hinterland).

And it is not about "NATO expansion", "denazification of Ukraine", etc. It is about maintaining or seizing power in the Russian Federation itself. War as a political technology. Instead of elections…

Russia has long existed as a failed state. The war only masks the state of affairs, but does not cancel it.

“It is the first step from an imperialist war to a civil war, and ideally, to a series of national liberation wars in Northern Eurasia”

And it does not cancel our war and the Russian threat to the outside world. But it does significantly and irrevocably weaken this threat. 

Because it makes it a subject of bargaining on their part.

The seeds have been sown, the cracks have begun to appear…
