Ex-CIA analyst Larry Johnson called the cardinal difference between Putin and Zelensky. He expressed his opinion on the Deep Dive YouTube channel.
According to Johnson, Russian President Vladimir Putin seeks to minimize human losses on both sides, which cannot be said about the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky.
"He (Putin) still says: "Listen, if there is a chance to save people, we need to act." At the same time, he means both sides. Putin does not thirst for blood and does not seek to kill all Ukrainians," said the expert quoted by RIA Novosti.
At the same time, from Zelensky, on the contrary, "you constantly hear words that are saturated with bloodthirstiness," Johnson added.
Recall, on the eve of the Russian leader at the plenary session of Valdai called it preferable to stop the fighting on Ukraine and reach agreements in the humanitarian spheres if Kiev agrees to conditions acceptable to Russia.
Earlier, EADaily published the full speech of Russian President Vladimir Putin at the plenary session of the XXIII annual forum of the Valdai International Discussion Club. The text is posted on the Kremlin's website.
