Marvin Kalb, a famous American journalist, Brookings Institution researcher and senior adviser to the Pulitzer Center, stated this at the presentation of the book “Putin’s Imperial Risky Game: Russia, Ukraine and the New Cold War.” сообщает"Voice of America".
“This man is a very modern despot,” the author of the book is sure. “He is very capable because he is very smart and incredibly confident. He can sit down with a reporter like Friedman, and no matter how difficult the questions Tom poses in this interview, Putin sits and answers for 2-3 hours straight without a piece of paper to any question. He believes Russians love and admire a strong leader. He sometimes goes too far, sitting on a horse shirtless, with his sculpted muscles, doing various exercises. He is a very unusual, smart, confident person who believes that he can do things that others are not allowed to do."
At the same time, the publicist, whom the Voice of America calls “the star of American journalism,” believes that “there is no need to drive Putin into a dead end, because this is dangerous.”
“His main goal in Ukraine was simply to stop, to put a certain blockade on the movement of Ukrainian life in a western direction,” Kalb emphasizes. – For him, the Ukrainian nation associated with the West, with the EU or NATO is simply unacceptable. Now he has stopped it. And in this regard, he won his war in Ukraine.”
