Propaganda and Repression: How Putin Controls His Population? - UATV



Propaganda to prevent protests. The authorities of the Transbaikalia region of Russia are holding so-called ‘Talks about the most important things’ with residents to prevent the emergence of popular discontent. The Kremlin regime is not only trying to suppress any expression of the will of the Russian citizens, but is once again accusing the so-called ‘collective West’ of undermining the situation.

The Russian government is very bad. They were caught bombing their own citizens around 20 years ago in order to increase public support for a war in Chechnya. Plus they kill journalists and others from time to time. Putin is the point-man for Russia's military industrial complex. Imagine if we had the same problem here in the USA. A ruthless president working primarily for the interests of big defense companies would be terrible. Now thousands of Russian soldiers are being killed and injured in Ukraine. Russia's big war industry enterprises are likely making a lot of money from this tragedy. It makes me sad for the Russian people. They need a USA-style government so that they can finally be free.
