Even without Putin, Russia will still covet my homeland

New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman in his article “Vladimir Putin is the World’s Most Dangerous Fool” concludes that the president of Russia never had a plan B. “Putin has put himself in a situation where he can’t win, can’t lose and can’t stop,” Friedman writes. If there will be no Putin, there will be another “good” Russian who will fulfil the will of his nation, about the greatness of Russia and the constant conquest of new territories. After the Second World War, the whole world chose peace. But at the same time, I immediately catch myself thinking that I don’t want to go back to the past, we have already come a long way.
