Ju sämre det går för Putlers imperium, desto svulstigare blir Dugins uttalanden, desto flagrantare blir hans äktryska herrefolkstänkande och urryska rovlystnad. För en dryg vecka sedan satt han som gäst i TV, med den ökände
Vladimir Solovjov / Solovyev som programvärd, och förklarade "pedagogiskt" varför de kaukasiska och centralasiatiska republikerna inte kan tillåtas utforma sin egen politik.
"Putin's brain" says Moscow cannot accept sovereign Armenia, Georgia and Central Asian states
https://www.intellinews.com/putin-s-brain-says-moscow-cannot-accept-sovereign-armenia-georgia-and-central-asian-states-421200/Russian far-right propagandist and ideologist of the "Russian World" concept, Aleksandr Dugin, has said that Moscow should not "agree with the existence of sovereign Armenia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, or Kyrgyzstan" and that the former Soviet republics should become part of Russia.

Arguing that Moscow must become a "centre of power", Dugin said Russia must take control of the countries.
"All territories we don't bring under our control will not remain neutral, they won't remain such sweet, quiet Switzerlands. They will become outposts of other poles, and first and foremost, of the most conflict-ridden pole—the United States. Therefore, we cannot accept the existence of a sovereign Armenia, or a sovereign Georgia, or a sovereign Azerbaijan, a sovereign Kazakhstan, a sovereign Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, or Kyrgyzstan. Nothing sovereign can exist in this new model. Either they will be in our camp, part of our united union, or they will become a foothold for the West, or the European Union, or America, or, under certain circumstances, China," Dugin said.
I de berörda länderna har man naturligtvis reagerat med förtrytelse, sorg och ilska på den skäggige fascistryssens fantasier. Men hans sladder ska naturligtvis tolkas mot bakgrund av de svidande motgångar som det senaste året har drabbat gangsterregimen i Kreml. Erövringskriget i Ukraina går inte som det ska, vasallerna i Syrien och Venezuela har störtats. Man måste på alla vis upprätthålla illusionen av att krackelerande Rossiiskaja Pederastsija alltjämt är en stormakt, som har rätt att styra över en massa andra länder.

What do the threats from Kremlin propagandists toward Central Asia mean?
https://old.asiaplustj.info/en/news/tajikistan/politics/20260123/what-do-the-threats-from-kremlin-propagandists-toward-central-asia-meanRustam Azizi, an expert on countering violent extremism, told Asia-Plus that the statements were more of an attempt to shift the internal propaganda agenda in Russia.
"Against the backdrop of Russia's loss of influence in several areas — such as the fall of Assad’s regime in Syria, the crisis with Maduro, and uncertainty in Ukraine — propagandists are forced to seek new themes and ideas," Azizi explained.
According to Azizi, the goal of figures like Solovyov and Dugin is primarily to create the illusion that Russia is still a great power, at least on the regional level. "This is a symbolic effort to maintain the image of a superpower in the minds of the domestic audience," he said.
Azizi believes that while these statements may not be preparing the ground for immediate intervention, they could be testing reactions and preparing for possible future actions.

Shuhrat Latifi, an expert on migration, believes that Solovyov and Dugin are voicing what the Russian leadership does not want to publicly acknowledge, but what is, in fact, part of their plans.
Latifi warned that the propagation of such ideas is part of a strategy called "the Overton window," where shocking ideas are introduced to prepare the public for more extreme actions. He highlighted that Russian propaganda has long claimed that "these states were artificially created" and "should be returned." This is a real threat, according to Latifi, who fears it could lead to actions such as raids or even the loss of citizenship.
