The Great Narrative: People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones – 'The European hypocrisy could not shine any brighter.'

"You either die a hero, or you live long enough to become the villain."

"Look at the language. The language you use is not the language you would use in a negotiation, in diplomacy, because mutual respect is what underpins any negotiation. As long as you only send threats to your negotiating partners, nobody going to ever negotiate with you. This is really the problem here. When the West is saying, 'We are ready to negotiate,' what they really mean is, 'We are ready to accept your defeat.'"

"Banning opposing political parties is not a prerogative of any democracy which has ever existed. Mette Fredrickson [Danish PM] just a few minutes ago, she was telling us that Putin is attacking our democracies. What democracies, Ms. Fredrickson? Because the system we have in the West doesn't look anything like a democracy. Here, we do everything upside down in order to preserve democracy. That doesn't make any sort of sense when you have to resort to censorship, banning opposition, please tell us, in what system did that existed? Oh yes, it existed in the same system that you're accusing Russia of having."

"Emmanuel Macron and Friedrich Merz have warned Russia that Europe is ready to support Ukraine for as long as it takes and have urged Vladimir Putin to cease fire. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has also urged Vladimir Putin to put an end to the war in Ukraine. Dmitry Peskov has stated that Russia is unwilling to enter a ceasefire, as Russia does not want to provide Ukraine with an advantage and to give them time to regroup and rearm."
