Several transcripts of conversations between Vladimir Putin and George W. Bush for the period from 2001 to 2008 have been released in the United States.. These conversations, the first of which took place almost 25 years ago, demonstrate that Putin was already fixated on the ideas of imperial revenge and openly articulated them in conversations with world leaders.

The following is the text in the original language. In 2001, the Russians told Bush: “The Russians voluntarily retreated to thousands of square kilometers of territory - it’s inconceivable. Ukraine, part of Russia for a century, was given. Kazakhstan—Viddanii. The Caucasus is the same. This is important to realize, and this is what the party leaders did, adding that after the collapse of the Radian empire, both the “people” and the “elites” feel uneasy.

And at a meeting in Sochi in 2008 - after the NATO meeting in Bucharest, where the plan for Ukraine's membership in the alliance was discussed - Putin read Bush a short version of his favorite lecture:. After the Other World War, Ukraine seized territories from Poland, Romania and Ugorshchina - practically all of Ukraine. In the 1920s–1930s, Ukraine carved out territories from Russia - this is a similar part of the country. In 1956, the Crimean province was transferred to Ukraine... This creates the threat of placing military bases and new military systems near Russia. This is what uncertainty and threat creates for us. I, lashing out at anti-NAT forces in Ukraine, Russia would strive to reduce NATO's expansion possibilities. Russia would gradually create problems there. Navishcho? Why is Ukraine's membership in NATO important How NATO and the USA benefit? There can be only one reason - to consolidate the status of Ukraine as part of the foreign world. I don't respect this logic as being correct"

Then Putin went on to explain in detail why Georgia is not a NATO member: “They respect that under the NATO parasol they can renew their territorial integrity. The right way is to widen NATO’s military parasol and allow them to begin military operations in Abkhazia and Pivdeniya Ossetia? There will be a guerrilla war there, like in Afghanistan." A few months after this revolution, Russia started a war against Georgia.

The compelling idea of \u200b\u200brenewing the empire has been haunting Putin for decades: every new emerging leader has heard - and continues to hear - the same beacon. At the same time, there was no more time for food if words were transformed into war and genocidal practices that are currently being implemented against Ukraine. Ale Zahid again and again gave precedence to Moscow’s pacification policy. Fantastic short-sightedness.

Another useful line that can be followed behind the transcripts of the three roses of Vladimir Putin and George W. Bush is Iran and its nuclear program..

At the beginning of the 2000s, Putin welcomed Washington's war with Iran and confirmed that Tehran intends to create a nuclear fence, and not share civilian sources of nuclear energy.. Putin recognized that Iranian leaders are “perhaps divine in their ideology”, and then said: “They are intellectuals.”. The stinks of the university light, they came from the academic middle. People are not primitive"

In 2005, Bush and Putin discussed that Iran should not be allowed a mother bomb.

The USA and Russia coordinated their policies around this food.

In 2025, fate and shorthand look great paradoxically. As a result, Russia has turned 180 degrees and is providing Iran with armor, technology and, most importantly, nuclear know-how..

From which you can earn only one. Just like Putin says, as it seems, the right speeches do not mean that his position will not change radically. It’s true that Washington cares that Russia can be dealt with, but that’s an illusion.
