Alexander Dugin emphasizes that the true threat to Russia lies in liberal officials embedded within the state apparatus — agents of a defunct globalist dream — who, under the guise of loyalty, relentlessly undermine the nation’s sovereign revival and betray its civilizational destiny.
We have a powerful group of opinion leaders who believe that lifting sanctions would be disastrous. Because liberal-leaning officials would immediately try to roll back all the achievements in import substitution, in asserting the sovereignty of our economy and production, in ensuring security in those areas that are vital to the development of the state.
— Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov
Sergey Lavrov has essentially acknowledged what many experts, including myself, have written about for years: that in Russia there exists an entire class of officials left over from the 1990s who do not share the head of state’s orientation towards strengthening sovereignty. They dream of once again making Russia a part of the global world — a world that no longer exists. This is their phantom pain, but because of it, they take an entirely destructive stance, obstructing the process of sovereignization in all areas.
These stubborn individuals no longer merely want to reshape our economic system to fit the West.
