the “Order of the 25th World Russian People’s Council, ‘The Present and Future of the Russian World’” — and it makes for terrifying reading.
The special military operation [SMO] is a new stage in the national liberation struggle of the Russian people against the criminal Kyiv regime and the collective West behind it, waged … since 2014,” says Part One. “During the SMO, the Russian people, with arms in hand, defend their lives, freedom, statehood, civilizational, religious, national and cultural identity, as well as the right to live on their own land within the borders of a single Russian state.”
Readers may wonder just how a poorly armed small state such as Ukraine could possibly threaten a well-armed giant state such as Russia and force it to defend itself “with arms in hand” by launching a limited invasion in 2014 and a full-scale invasion in 2022. Not even foreign policy “realists” like the University of Chicago’s John Mearsheimer would make such a preposterous claim.
Readers may also wonder how church leaders could have reached the following astounding conclusion: “From a spiritual and moral point of view, the special military operation is a Holy War, in which Russia and its people … fulfill the mission of ‘Restrainer,’ protecting the world from the onslaught of globalism and the victory of the West, which has fallen into Satanism.”
After the completion of the SMO, the entire territory of modern Ukraine should enter the zone of exclusive influence of Russia. The possibility of the existence in this territory of a Russophobic political regime hostile to Russia and its people, as well as a political regime controlled from an external center hostile to Russia, must be completely excluded.”
