Putin believes that the republics "seized" Russian lands with them when leaving the USSR

489

Perhaps the "divorce and division of property" between the former Soviet republics did not happen quite rightly and fairly. After all, some of them, leaving, "seized what did not belong to them" - the land.

This opinion was expressed by the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin in an interview on the TV channel "Russia".




The leader of the country believes that, in fairness, the Union republics should have left the USSR with the territories with which they belonged to it:

If the republic became part of the USSR, but received in its baggage a huge amount of Russian lands, traditional Russian historical territories, and then decided to leave this Union, then I would leave, with what I came.

Putin drew attention to the fact that some errors were made in drawing up the union treaty during the formation of the USSR. In particular, it provided for the right of the republics to self-determination, but the procedure itself was not spelled out.

But many of them received from Russia part of its ancestral territories. Putin believes that they should not, after leaving the USSR, "carry gifts from the Russian people."

The collapse of the Soviet Union began around the mid-80s, and by 1991 took on an irreversible character. This led to the formation of at least 15 new independent states on the wreckage of the USSR.

    I've been waiting for this from the leaders of Russia for several decades...
    During the collapse of the Republic of Ingushetia and the USSR, it was Russia that lost most of its ancestral lands... in my opinion, the time has come for Russia to “collect stones” and Crimea, this is only one of the grains of the lost lands of Russia...

    A good statement for those who want to join NATO. Some people’s reaction to it is not adequate; one might say violent. I hope in Russia there are less than 5% violent, then there is no need to worry about the country and its future, everything will be fine. I didn’t say that, but a man smarter than me.

    The GDP has not forgotten that the Russian Federation, through the efforts of the EBN, was one of the first to leave the USSR. We had to first demand our own, and then break out of the Union. Why make claims now, and even hints.

    Russia has no territorial claims against its neighbors, said presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov, commenting on an interview with Vladimir Putin, which he gave to the Rossiya 1 TV channel https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/4389607
    I crowed, but at least keep the light...

    I'm not talking about Peskov.

    Funny. And most importantly - on time. Something like that old joke, where only a month later Chapaev discovered that the barn where he was held captive did not have one wall. Well, what “B” will be said after this “A”?

    They grabbed the lands of the USSR. Or, as they put it during perestroika, “they took over.” Only Vovochka’s fishing in this manner is a shock of air. What can our powerless government do with brazen thieves? Nothing, just wipe yourself off.

    Putin: the republics “took” Russian lands with them when leaving the USSR

    Bravo, Vladimir Vladimirovich!

    This TRUTH should have been told a long time ago, just as he told the truth about the true culprits and instigators of WWII, about the traitors of 1917-1918, about repressions, etc., etc.

    Due to the policy of LIES and SILENCE, which flowed in our country in a muddy stream for many, many decades, Russia was deprived of its real History, its lands, and its people.

    It’s wonderful that everything is finally called by its proper names and put in its proper place!

    The Balts were the first to leave. then Georgia and others like them. Well, and only then three drunks decided everything for everyone...

    Russia was the first to leave
    12 June 1990 year The Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) declared its own sovereignty.



    The Balts have demanded economic freedoms since 1988. There were also demonstrations in Georgia. and do not confuse sovereignty and a declaration of secession from the USSR.

    Why did you, President Putin, in 2014 stop the successful offensive of the DPR-LPR on Mariupol-Melitopol and further at the request of some Frenchman Sarkozy, whom no one remembers now? Why are you reproaching the leadership of the USSR for the loss of territories? The USSR did not lose its territories and its population. And you, Russian President Putin, lost them by continuing the criminal policy of the Belovezhite Yeltsin to liquidate the USSR, which led to the loss of huge Russian territories along with the population. Therefore, shame on you and everyone around you. And resignation.

    It took the president a long time to gather his courage—as much as 20 years—to publicly state this obvious truth. He's kind of shy!
