Putin called the attempts to blame Russia for fomenting unrest in Europe excessive nonsense. The president said this in an interview with the Vesti program. The first reaction when I saw it was surprise. Because, well, really, but to say that we are provoking mass demonstrations in the major European cities is a clear exaggeration, which I think is obvious to the ordinary citizens of European countries. At the same time, the accusation against Russia of provoking mass unrest in Europe did not come immediately; Initially, European leaders placed the blame on the current US administration. And it also surprised the president: what surprised me: the first reaction was not anti-Russian at all, it was anti-American, if you noticed. Fakes immediately began that the events taking place in Europe are the result of the activities of the American government today, the result of support for right-wing parties, right-wing movements. I did not expect that European leaders would attack their ally and their main protector, so to speak, in the military sense of the word.
