Ilya Yablokov - about Patrushev’s article

in the Novaya Gazeta publication Historian Ilya Yablokov writes :

“Like any classic conspiracy theorist, Patrushev is sure that he lives at the turn of time and is personally involved in the battle of tectonic forces that are reformatting the system of international relations. “Within this model, a narrow group of states built a pyramid, establishing themselves at its top and endowing themselves with exclusive powers,” begins his article, full of allusions either to the global gang of Freemasons with a pyramid on the dollar bill, or simply to the global mafia.

The author paints a picture of a world in which an sinister minority destroys and ruins the lives of the majority of the population. All evil comes from them - the “Westerners” and globalists, who have subjugated the whole world and built the world as a global gang of robbers. “The essence of this system is simple: everyone who is on a lower tier must meekly and practically free of charge transfer to the top part of their own resources - material, financial, intellectual, human. In essence, we are dealing with a multi-level parasitic superstructure on a global scale.” They have been robbing colonies since the Middle Ages, and they hate and fear Russia because of the natural resources that they naturally want to get, and weapons. We have been hearing about this since at least 2006, and from Patrushev since 2015.

Patrushev’s text is also a manual for Russian strategic disinformation at the beginning of the 21st century. Everything you would like to understand about the ideas promoted by the Kremlin is here.”
