The question of restoring the Soviet "empire" for the Kremlin has never stood; Aggression against Ukraine had a single reason: to "snub" that which lies badly.

This opinion was expressed to the "Observer" by the Russian publicist, blogger and analyst Vladimir Golyshev.

Answering the question whether there is an opportunity to restore the "empire", he assured: "The question is not worth it and never stood. In general, this entire plot, connected with Ukraine, has one single reason: to snub what lies badly. The Crimea closed up and thought that half of Ukraine would as well ".

Golyshev also assured that using the words "empire" and "war" in relation to the plans and actions of the current Russian president, Vladimir Putin, does not make sense. So, the mention of "high-flown words" about the "empire", "pickpocket thieves and gopnik from the gateway you attach that weight that should not be given". "The word" war "does not apply to Putin. He can only steal and squeeze, "added Golyshev.

In his opinion, today in power "in Russia there are people with melkougolovnym consciousness," who are currently concerned about "how to eliminate the consequences of this hapnical impact".
