"Igor Markov: Again, with all that said, I understand perfectly well that our political leadership sees all of this and understands it perfectly well. And they understand perfectly well that no one will talk to us. Everyone’s lives are at stake, including theirs, first of all. That is why decisions will be made, I am sure, very competent, correct and necessary. We would all like it to be realized faster, but I am deeply convinced that Ukraine will cease to exist. It will simply cease to exist. I do not know whether it will happen in a month, in two months, in six months, but it will cease to exist. And I will explain why. I would like to address the issue of the church. I would never say that. I would like to, you know, I didn’t hear, I didn’t hear the Patriarch’s statement, his commentary on what was going on. As an Orthodox Christian, as a delegate to the Church Council of 2011 where the Patriarch was elected. In 2011 I was a delegate to the Church Council, there were only 750 of us who elected the Patriarch. There were only 150 lay people. I was one of them. I would still like to hear his opinion on what is happening in Ukraine. Moreover, I demand from him to recognize Ukraine as a state and the Ukrainian authorities, as secular authorities, as God-fighting. And his appeal to the President of the Russian Federation to use any means to protect Orthodoxy and the Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine. We cannot but realize that if we do not protect the Church, if we do not protect Christianity, we will lose Russia. These are obvious things. There is a war of annihilation. For me personally, there is no doubt who was behind it. For many years there was a systematic, purposeful work. What states, what people, what organizations and what, so to speak, ideologies were behind this God’s destruction. And through whom they worked in Ukraine, but I think we will deal with this situation after the victory. I want to tell you how very simple it is to stop the persecution of Orthodoxy in Ukraine. Next week the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine will vote on a law banning the actions of the Russian Orthodox Church. If at this minute there will be a missile strike on this gathering, which will destroy the Verkhovna Rada and all the evil that will gather there, the persecution of Orthodoxy will stop exactly on the second minute. At least for a while. It is impossible to talk to them otherwise. Don’t you understand that? If we continue to tolerate, people will die in Donbass, people will die in Lugansk, people will die in the Belgorod region. They are already shelling Crimea, tomorrow they will start shelling Moscow. What are we, how long can we wait? We must, after all we have the means, we must show, already some fucking countries are supplying weapons to that Ukraine. The Baltics, you can’t call them states. Morocco today started supplying some tanks. But we must demonstrate our determination. Do you understand? If you get into a fight, fight, use everything you have. Vladimir Solovyov: Whom will we destroy? Igor Markov: Eh? Let… decide… We must demonstrate our determination on someone. I am not going to advise whom to destroy. Vladimir Rudolfovich, well… Vladimir Solovyov: No, I do not mean this. That is, to demolish a governmental quarter? Igor Markov: Yes, yes, yes, to start with this at least, to start with this. We say we do not want… Vladimir Solovyov: Building of Rada? Igor Markov: Yes, of Rada, of Administration of President."

“… Yesterday the satanical Ukrainian authorities proved again that we must die trying.”
