👨‍🦲💬 Key quotes from Putin in the documentary by Saida Medvedeva and Pavel Zarubin "Russia. The Kremlin. Putin. 25 Years," which aired on the "Russia" channel:

➡️ "At the core of Western culture, whether it's Catholic or Protestant, material well-being always takes precedence. Yes, there are spiritual aspects there too, but ultimately, material success is the measure. This leads to the West's constant desire to 'bite off' something from Russia, to subjugate it in some way, to make it more compliant."

➡️ "The civilized world has decided that Russia is weak, that historical Russia, known as the Soviet Union, has collapsed and now they need to finish off the remaining parts. The largest of these is the Russian Federation, and it too must be divided into 4-5 parts. The responsibility for the future of the country rested on my shoulders, and I, of course, started working to ensure that this would never happen."

➡️ "In 2014, we had no choice but to decide to support the people of Crimea and Sevastopol, because any other course of action would have meant handing them over to be torn apart."

➡️ "As it turned out, we were simply deceived. They took a pause under the pretext of the need to comply with the Minsk agreements to rearm Ukraine and prepare it for war with Russia."

➡️"Peter the Great didn’t want us to merely copy everything that was best. As I understand it, we were supposed to take the best, and then, based on our own foundation, move forward to create something even better."

➡️ "For a country to be stable and to create conditions that ensure its development and security, one very important condition is needed—trust of the people in the highest officials of the country."

➡️"It is recognized in the West, and they are currently speaking about it in the US; they say directly: we are in a state of existential war with Russia."

➡️"Regarding reconciliation with Ukraine: It seems to me that this is inevitable, despite all the tragedy we are experiencing now. It is just a matter of time."
