The Kremlin officially confirmed the presence of Vladimir Putin at the wedding of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Austria Karin Knaisl and financier Wolfgang Malilingure. It is difficult to call the Russian president a close friend of the Austrian couple, so his presence on marriage speaks rather about the desire to act as a wedding general, or rather a lieutenant colonel. You can understand the ambitious motive of Knaisl - a person who has only recently settled in great policy at the national level will be Putin himself at the wedding. It is more interesting to understand why this is the presence of "Putin himself."
But if you think about it, the "wedding lieutenant colonel" is completely logical. His wedding trip is a demonstration of support not only Knaisl, but also to all Western political forces focusing on the Kremlin.
Putin’s trip once again recalls what kind of strength it is. Knaisl became the head of the Austrian Foreign Ministry of the Austrian Freedom Party. In Soviet terminology, which Putin loves so much when he recalls victory in the Second World War, this party would easily be called neo -Nazi. Now they are called ultra -right. Nevertheless, both the leader of the Khinz-Cristian Straha party, and its other leaders and activists have been repeatedly seen in poorly disguised sympathies to Nazi times.
Knaisl herself, who wants her to be considered an independent intellectual, is no exception. The researcher of the Middle East, she is published by a book in which anti -Semitism, as is customary in modern Europe, ultra -right and ultralery, is only disguised as antisionism.
You can, of course, not notice anything of this. You can pretend that in fact the Freedom Party has long abandoned sympathy for Hitlerism and fights for Austrian sovereignty and against migration. But the truth is that she is different. It is that the head of state, whose ideology is built around the victory in the Second World War, will be at a general holiday with those who would not mind if a completely different country would defeat in that war. And this does not bother Putin - as Stalin did not embarrass the agreements with Hitler and the "friendship fastened with blood."
Yes, this is the continuation of the same long-standing tradition: hatred of democracy, for the values of the free world, the desire to take revenge and achieve the expansion of the empire invariably bring the Kremlin to the camp of madmen, make Russia the patroness and ally of this camp. In the late 30s, these were the Nazis. After the war, the ultra -terrorists who were trained in special camps of the Soviet intelligence services. Today, the Kremlin supports the ultra -right, with the other - Levakov, if only they were determined to destroy the European Union and untie Putin's hands in his dreams of reviving the Soviet Empire and the taming of its former republics and satellites.
So we can say that in the approaches of the Kremlin there is no obvious ideology, one desire for chaos and destabilization. But the trip of the "wedding lieutenant colonel" to Austria proves that Putin's heart is nevertheless given to the ultra -right European politicians - thereby, against the like -minded people of which "grandfathers fought."
