On July 17, 2014, it became the most important day in the political career of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.
From the first day of this career, which had begun unexpectedly at the dawn of the new millennium, a cautious executive official realized that in order to achieve his goals and distract the attention of the public from the true motives of his actions, one must be hybrid. And time went back.
At first he was a hybrid Yeltsin. The US President looked into his eyes and saw something there. The oligarchs came to the "arrows". The television channels respectfully spoke of the first mistakes of the young leader. But soon there were no more perky oligarchs, nor too bold television channels.
So he became hybrid Brezhnev. Life stopped, but petrodollars flowed into the country. The party was alone. Television talked about labor achievements. The Russians congratulated each other on victories. Vladimir Vladimirovich was old and approached the end of the second period.
So he became the hybrid Khrushchev. The nominal head of state, a sort of hybrid Malenkov, fussed and spoke of reforms, and he steamed the apparatus, special services, financial flows, placed people in the right places and prepared for return. But again, he was no longer interested in the role of hybrid Brezhnev, and impossible - because in this case the shooters of history would go forward, but he did not want to go ahead.
He decided to become a hybrid Stalin. His power is strong, the rating grew up, his enemies turned out to be enemies of the people. His victorious troops without a single shot and a single identification sign “squeezed” Crimea. New anonymous battalions went to the Donbass, preparing for the conquest of all of Ukraine. The soldiers died, they burned at home, the children cried. He stood at the mirror, tired and majestic, and straightened the imaginary Marshal star on a tie. And at this time, the Unfortunate Installation "Buk", ready to destroy the enemy’s aviation, was crossed by the Russian-Ukrainian border, which was actually captured by his well done. Vladimir Vladimirovich had no doubt that after a few days, the "dill" would not have a single combat aircraft.
On July 17, 2014, he became a hybrid Hitler.
