Henry Kissinger 94 years old. His influence on US foreign policy is pure zero. But he decided to tackle the problem of lifting sanctions from Russia and even gave some interview, they say, it is possible. This is the usual lobbyism for money, the Americans do so, wrote on the Observer Russian businessman and politician Konstantin Borovoi.

And Kissinger, pronouncing the phrase on the lifting of sanctions, did a lot, but for propaganda. After all, this is the opinion of the 94-year-old former politician, who already has no ties to American politics. And for Putin it's such psychotherapy, auto-suggestion that maybe Kissinger will help him in some way. Although Putin will not hear from him the solution of the problem in the liberation of Ukraine - the Crimea and the east of Ukraine. This problem for today is not in the US and not in the obstinacy of Trump and the State Department. The problem of non-compliance with international agreements by Putin. And while this situation does not change - you can hire three more lobbyists. Money that will say that sanctions are not needed and you can do without them, while there is. These are phrases for which you have to pay a lot of money.

The current politicians will not engage in such lobbyism, understanding, firstly, its futility, and secondly, it is the loss of the image. Henry Kissinger is a person for whom the issue of image and reputation no longer matters. For money, he is ready to pronounce the necessary phrases. And for Putin it's self-deception. He has the feeling that with the help of Kissinger the situation can be changed. It's like with a serious illness, patients from despair turn to wizards, to doctors of alternative medicine. That's what Putin does, hoping that a meeting with Kissinger will help him somehow.

Although the economy is dying, the country is approaching the moment of disintegration. And our Russian conspiracy in what happened or will happen in the future, accuse the CIA or someone else there. Although the main reason is what Putin does, violating the state bases. And Kissinger, and psychotherapists, and wizards can not do anything.. Miracles do not happen, but Putin does not agree with this. He still expects a miracle. That the price of oil will rise by itself, that sanctions will be lifted. Here is the latest idea actively disseminated by Kremlin experts that Americans can agree to give Crimea to Russia, will help pay for economic recovery, agree that Ukraine will not join NATO and in general they will leave it in the zone of Russian influence. This is such a nonsense not very healthy people.

At the same time, objective events occur. For example, the US, together with the Western community, will strengthen aid for Ukraine. But our experts do not want to see this fact and do not even take it into account in their assessments. This is a deeply painful condition, when reality does not suit the patient. Then he begins to live in a fantasy world. You can still hire an artist and Henry Kissinger agreed to act as a psychotherapist and tell Putin that what he wants is possible. But for not a lot of money.
