The formula of the collective West “those who are not with us are against us” is very dangerous, because there is a saying about it: “As it comes, so it will respond.” This was stated by Russian President Vladimir Putin at a meeting of the Valdai Club.
“Rather than realizing the futility of their aspirations and the objective nature of change, some Western elites seem willing to do anything to prevent the emergence of a new international system that meets the interests of the world majority.
In the politics of the United States, for example, and its allies in recent years, the principle “Don’t take it from anyone!”, “If not with us, then against us!” has become increasingly noticeable. Well, listen, this formula is very dangerous. Because both here and in many countries around the world there is a saying that says: “As it comes, so will it respond.” — Putin said, quoted on the Kremlin’s telegram channel.
