when i read an article by nikolai platonovich patrushev, i heard you directly, but many things that youe directly involved were indicated. well, i'm glad that we read the information from the same ethical level that we have become a respected person. still, regarding the withdrawal from afghanistan, i would like to make one remark, of course, the united states became less vulnerable when they left afghanistan in the sense that the power that has spread its bases, so to speak, around the world and will take away representation, if from where -something their base, then quite imagine their troops. there will be invulnerable. maybe, well, here's what he said, damn it, about the fact that we brought out. afghanistan in order to resist russia is far- fetched to the extreme. for my ears. so you can say everything from cancer, that syria has not been removed - this is definitely an american formation much more than the perm explanation for the failure, that is, to come up with materials retroactively. i like this logic. i really like this logic, because the next time they leave from somewhere,

well i refer to the thought that nikolai platonovich patrushev formulated yes, he absolutely correctlyans quite uh, quickly, in fact, suddenly curtailed their military presence in afghanistan and one of one of the motives, of course. it is certain. so it was a concentration of forces. uh, for uh, countering russia to fight us on the ukrainian foothold. i 'm sure that's exactly the case, uh, but in a broader sense in a broader sense. uh, americans continue to live in a paradigm. e in the cold war paradigm. after all, right there the task was not so much to win. uh, in some kind of regional conflict, so to speak, in some region of the world, the task was to contain and weaken the soviet union as much as possible. well, to get their profits, so to speak, they got their profits in iraq, no doubt they cut the military budget there very well. uh, inside washington and budget, restoration and cow money. there they touched repeatedly, so to speak, yes, before these money even reached the un in afghanistan, approximately similar picture , so to speak, the same was in libya, uh, and then the sam
