Prokhanov reflects on whether Putin can be considered the "fifth Stalin"

46
The originality of the historical path of Russia, its past, present and future have always been the subject of reflection and heated discussion of many famous and prominent figures of our country.

Prokhanov reflects on whether Putin can be considered the "fifth Stalin"




The writer, editor-in-chief of the Zavtra newspaper Alexander Andreevich Prokhanov, a guest of the Day TV channel, will talk about his vision of a thousand-year-old Russian stories, which was directly reflected in his new book, Fifth Stalin. In his book, the writer tries to consider the history of the Russian state not from a position of hatred of certain facts, but from a position of understanding and love for them.

Why, according to Prokhanov, is Russian history moving with jerks, jerks? What is the meaning of the author of the book in the concept of "fifth Stalin"?
Why was the figure of Joseph Stalin chosen for the ruler’s standard? Can Putin be considered the “fifth Stalin”? Did Putin give impetus to the development of the country? Why, according to Prokhanov, Russia has stopped in its development both socially and economically? Why is a dangerous moment now for Russia and for President Putin? Can Russia crawl through the eye of Russian history?

The answers to these and other questions are presented in the video on the Day TV channel.

    Don’t even think about comparing Putin and Stalin .. Putin didn’t do a thousandth for Russia what Stalin did. These are politicians of different levels, Putin is a yard kid, Stalin is a great statesman. It is enough to compare the result for the same period of time and everything will be obvious.

      And the "comparator" (Prokhanov) himself is also "so-so".
      Russia has stopped in its development

      Judging by how many hospitals and educational institutions have closed, this is not a halt in development, but degradation.

          Prokhanov in the video (I already managed to look at a speed of 2x) calls such whiners. See at 53:30.
          And we do not whine, we understand what should be better. And they tell us - start with yourself. We begin, and we are told - be patient yet. And we understand that they consider us terpils.

          If the presenter and Prokhanov showered with metaphors in the video, then I will try.
          You can drive a motor with a mileage of 350 thousand and add a liter of oil every 1000 km. Or you can supply a contract motor. Will it be expensive? You can also "capitalize".
          So, in my opinion, they will not let us supply a contract engine, and Putin also does not want to "otkapitalit" (that is, to change the government). So we will add to the engine (Sechin, Miller, Rothenberg, etc.) a liter of oil. But the car will not go better from this.

      The history of Russia turned Bogrov. All that is done then may not have historical significance.
      Information: Dmitry Grigorievich Bogrov (January 29 [February 10] 1887 - September 12 [25] 1911, Kiev) - Russian anarchist of Jewish origin, secret informant of the security department (pseudonym Alensky), personally committed the attempt on the life of P. A in 1911 Stolypin

    How can Putin and Stalin be compared, this is the exact opposite in all directions, nothing in common, Putin is no different from Gorbachev and Yeltsin, who are his comrades-in-arms, Kudrin, Sechin, Chubais, Medvedev, Gref, a bunch of oligarchs. List what they have done over 20 years?

    "Fifth Stalin"


    There is no and cannot be any second, third, fifth ... Stalin is alone and it is impossible to repeat it, and it is simply ridiculous to compare someone with him. K I.V. Stalin can be treated in every way, but this is everyone’s business. But he lived like he lived and did what he did. And Victory in the Great Patriotic War will forever be associated with his name. Not to mention the fact that he turned agrarian Russia into one of the industrial, leading countries of the world. At what cost - the question is different, but he did it.
    And Putin ... he passed a law on self-abuse, so I will not say anything. By the way, Stalin did not issue such laws, he somehow managed.

          This is where political satire "started to eat". Laughter devalues ​​real achievements (let's be honest - Putin has them), ultimately ruining the state. The ban on "swearing" by the authorities will lead precisely to the renaissance of the already forgotten subtle and intellectual satire. Honest to God - they are not at all fools sitting upstairs, but for some reason they do not learn elementary things. Sooner or later, the Russian Guard will laugh at them (those in power), and this is the end.

    If Putin left on time (rather than appointing the new-old Prime Minister Medvedev for the "breakthrough" he announced, moreover, after the failed May 2012 decrees), he could go down in the history of the Russian Federation as the most popular president. But he chose a different path and soon he may be compared not with Stalin, but with Brezhnev ...

      Putin is Stalin today. I asserted this ten years ago, and now I am even more convinced of this.

      And I am very glad that NePutin was in power in 1941 ... Thanks to NePutin, the Soviet people won the Victory, and did not disentangle the "professional-oligarchic" leadership and effective management ...
      Let Putin boast of success in demography ... Everything else is a paper gimp. Ask yourself the question - would Putin have appeared in the years of the first five-year plans and would the people follow him? Even today he does not have an idea and a direction for rallying society ... Degradation and collapse, the decay of morality held together by murderous poverty.

      I do not detract from the merits of Stalin (they are significant), but Putin was able to transfer the battlefield from Russia from the outside to the side of the enemy, and he was almost able to break the indestructible alliance of Europe and the United States. What Stalin did not succeed (the difference between the socialist and the cap.stroy prevented).

    Living on the backlogs of the Stalinist economy and comparing it with a variegated galaxy of figures, from outright thieves to simply banal effective managers, is, excuse me, cuckoo grunted at his grandfather. What great industrializers and victors in world wars did he find there, when over the past almost 30 years we still have not reached the level of industrial production dynamics even in the 89 pre-development year ?! If Putin had dispersed all this Medvedev-Chubais and other Kudrin cliques, then somehow it would be possible to understand and partially accept such a curtsy. But this is nonsense when there is a quiet, evil-minded fuss on the remnants of the empire with varying success in the import and export of capital, and they are trying to sanctify it in the name of Stalin! Truly there is no limit to clicks.

    -God - no fools are sitting upstairs at all, but for some reason they don’t teach elementary things

    Do you know what has become absolutely obvious to me recently?
    When a person comes into power in the Russian realities, a metamorphosis occurs with lightning speed with him.
    He seems to remain an adequate person, often and eagerly speaks at various talk shows, writes some laws ...
    And at the same time, completely loses the feeling of reality. As if instantly moving to a parallel world. In this world there are no problems of an ordinary Russian, there are no problems of medicine at the district level, there are no problems of pension provision.
    After all, it has long been said: they are terribly far from the people ... It turns out that the problem of misunderstanding the power of the aspirations of the people is not today. From the depths of centuries stretches. Maybe this is our main bond?
