[I appreciate Putin's plain, honest, direct, logical and intelligent way of thinking and speaking]
[from a Gab posting]
On Croatian TV Channel 4, Vladimir Putin got permission to speak. He addressed the Europeans: “The Russia has never been and it will never be your enemy!
We don't want European commodities and wealth, we have our commodities and richness, we absolutely don't need your commodities. Russia is the richest country in the world in terms of raw materials.
We dont want your land or your territory. Look how big Russia is on the map. Russia is as big as the whole of Europe in one place. What would we use your land for, what would we do with it?

"Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord" Is1:18;
