Russian Viktor Bout, who is serving a sentence in an American prison, told about the life of citizens in the US. According to him, the country has now completely turned into the USSR because of bureaucratization and war among politicians who are ready to tear each other's throats for a better place. "America reminds me of the last years of the USSR. And political life, look what they have going on. They have a virtually civil war already going on in the power structures, "- quotes him" Ridus ". Booth noted that the rallying of the American people is formed only at the expense of accusations and the image of Russia as the main enemy of the state. At the same time, the prisoner stressed that Washington repeatedly interfered in the elections of other countries, arranged coups and revolutions, but no one pays attention to this. Supporting the national idea, local authorities and journalists constantly accuse and see the Kremlin's entire hand. "Whatever the US politicians have touched, it turns out that Russia is to blame for this. Everywhere they shout: Rasha, Rasha, Rasha, Rasha. ", Said Victor. Booth also talked about the reaction of the White House to the message of Vladimir Putin to the Federal Assembly.

The Russian stressed that at first all were in great shock, but moving away from him at the Pentagon said that all this was a bluff and an unsuccessful attempt to intimidate. Viktor pointed out that Putin never speaks out with false reports. "He's not Trump, who can blurt out something, and then try to win back," the prisoner said.. Victor Bout was captured by US agents in Bangkok in March 2008. Then he was taken to the US, where he was found guilty of conspiring against American citizens. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison. Extradition to the homeland is denied.
