Anti-imperial Block of Nations

The head of the Main Directorate of Intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov, said at the Forum of Russian Volunteers that a real “ballot box riot” began in the Russian Federation during the so-called “elections” of the President – there was no such number of spoiled ballots and ballot boxes anywhere in the world.

Direct speech: “Putin understands that in the eyes of world leaders, primarily the People’s Republic of China, he is becoming an unstable ruler who is unable to ensure order in the elections in his country. He shows himself to be weak in front of his people and elites. Weakness is what he fears the most. What is currently happening in the Russian Federation weakens the regime in general and Putin personally. We must use this weakness and make it an additional weapon.”

Details: Budanov emphasized that Putin’s so-called elections are illegitimate.

“Whatever result the Russian Central Election Commission writes is fake, because the elections did not take place not only in the border regions. A large number of precincts will not be able to count the ballots, because Russian activists, aware of the vileness of these “elections”, are spoiling them,” the head of the GUR noted.

In his address, he also noted that the limited military operation of the Russian Armed Forces opposed to Putin in the Belgorod and Kursk regions of the Russian Federation is only the beginning of the struggle for their native country.

“Citizens of the Russian Federation have decided to liberate their country from the old man and his henchmen, who usurped power, illegally changed the Constitution and lives in an alternative reality with his cronies. The war against Putin’s regime is the legitimate right of citizens to demand justice,” said Budanov.

What preceded it: Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is “painting” a record victory in the presidential “elections” by the Central Committee of the Russian Federation.
