Russian television stopped talking about the annexed Crimea and the war in the Donbass, including, due to the failure of the project of the so-called "New Russia".
This was told by Russian financier and blogger Slava Rabinovich, the Observer reports..
In his opinion, there are two reasons for ignoring the themes of Ukraine.
"Pseudo-patriotic frenzy from the annexation of the Crimea - or, as it is called in Russia," annexation of the Crimea "- has disappeared. Accordingly, the people covered the harsh reality of what happened in those four years. Including, of course, economic, financial and political consequences.

Rabinovich noted that the parameters of the "Novorossia" plan are well known.
"Putin, like Hitler, failed in these plans. Only they failed in different ways.

The analyst also added that the Kremlin's future plans are still unknown and it is impossible to forecast them.
"The Russian state is destroyed, the constitutional branches of power are destroyed, the institutions of free, fair and fair elections, the replacement of power. Decision-making is still in the hands of Putin and his closest minions, "Rabinovitch concluded..
