As for genocide and the destruction of Ukraine. Look, there are two differences, indeed.

First: as for the destruction of Ukraine as a Nazi state, I believe that this is a perfectly normal goal. Ukraine as a neo-Nazi state should be destroyed today the latest. It should no longer exist on the world map. It seems to me that this would be absolutely correct. It will be called Ukraine, but in its current state it should not exist.

As for the genocide of Ukrainians, it has nothing to do with the destruction of the Ukrainian state. Because in fact we are not going to do anything like this regarding the civilian population, yes, we are not going to do, and this is proved by the activities that we are carrying out in those territories that are under our control.

In addition, there is no Ukrainian population at all. There is actually a people who is ethnically.... Genocide is the extermination of someone on ethnic grounds who is ethnically no different from Russians.

I’m as Ukrainian, by and large, as most of the population of Ukraine itself. And they are as Russian as most of the population, of the Russian population of Russia.

There is no ethnic distinction. There is a political distinction. Those who are politically active, those who are supporters of this neo-Nazi regime here, those are probably subject to extermination.

Everyone else, everyone else, can hope for a quiet peaceful life. And, by the way, this hope for a quiet peaceful life should, in theory, be given by some shaping of the political model that we would like to see at the end of the special military operation. So far, I personally do not see this model, because as long as we have, so to speak, they say, well, you know, that negotiations with Zelenskiy are possible, you know, so to speak, anything is possible.

From that we conclude that this state will remain as it is. In this case, for all those who live here, including those who live in these territories, it is unclear how all this will end.

I think this is fundamentally important. And here again, the point is not my fears, but the point is what people who are in these territories will think. And if they do not understand what is going to happen, then Bidens and other, so to speak, Shmidens will tell tall tales, and who knows what kind of.
