It's pretty clear Putin was giving a detailed background. Tucker was worried Putin was trying to run out the clock. But there ended up not being a time limit on the interview. If Tucker knew that going in he probably wouldn't have interrupted.

It shows the difference in mindset between Eastern Europe/Asia and the West. They think in terms of history and the long game future. The West thinks about the current 5 seconds they're living in.

Yeah but so far Putin is blaming everyone else for why he has to do what he is doing. I just made it to the part about hypersonic weapons development and he says they had no choice and wanted to go the other way.

I do think Russia wanted to be left alone and I get not wanting NATO on his borders.

That explains why Russia has had such a stable system of government over the last century plus , how they have lived so oeacefully, and how they have prospered; while the West has languished far behind.

It’s the attention to the long game which brought the Czars, Russia, the Reds, the USSR, and now the Russian Oligarths. I never realized that.

I love America, but we are such a young country and there's not much history here. Hell, and what does exist is being torn down en masse.

A lot of other countries have thousands and thousands of years of sacrifice, blood, sweat, and tears built into the fabric of their societies.
