Neoliberalism Has “Become a Totalitarian Ideology” — Vladimir Putin
At the Valdai Forum Putin said that neoliberalism stifles national sovereignty and traditional values and erodes national cultures, thus eliminating diversity. “There is no room for difference in the neoliberal order. It seeks to flatten diversity rather than celebrate it.” Washington’s unipolar system “only serves a small number of powerful elites.” Now that Putin has come to these realizations, perhaps he will replace his neoliberal central bank director.
Putin thanks Washington for the economic sanctions that forced Russia off the mistaken path of globalism. “The sanctions have forced us to look inward, to focus on developing domestic industries.” Globalism is a one-way street to economic death. For Americans the consequence was the offshoring of American industry and middle class jobs, pressure on state and local budgets, and the loss of a trained work force.
Putin says that he respects Western civilization–probably more than do graduates and professors of Western universities. The problem is not Western culture. The problem is with the aggressive policies of Western governments. Putin is puzzled that such weak political and military countries are so aggressive toward such a powerful unified country as Russia.
Putin said Trump was a capable leader who has shown courage and resilience. Putin declared willingness to work with Trump to normalize relations and put them on a more constructive path.
Now that both powers have capable leaders perhaps the world can escape from war. Peace is possible if Trump can escape from the US military/security complex and the warmonger neoconservatives.

I prefer this more realistic and less partisan version of Putin’s Valdai speech and I appreciate the fact that PCR recognizes the paradox between Putin’s words and actions:
“Now that Putin has come to these realizations, perhaps he will replace his neoliberal central bank director.”
Indeed, and what about the totally globalist CDBC Russia is preparing to enslave its population and remove cash?
What about the digital id’s promised (first for immigrants, then for everybody)?
What about removing another neoliberal western puppet in the person of Moscow’s mayor/
Etc…
Fortunately Putin also talks about nationalism, looking inward and sovereignty, otherwise one could be confused.
When he will denounce the WHO, IMF, UN, the ‘sustainable development’ grabbing agenda, the Ai, 5G, Iot forced deployment, the cdbc agenda and all the plans which are the same as its western rivals, then I will buy into the Putin’s narrative.

Fully agree with your last paragraphe
Dont forget at some point Putin was in or went to the WEF meetings
Or am I mistaken in thinking that ?

Yes, Putin was, with Merkel and Bill Gates, one of the first WEF “young global leaders” (promotion 1992 I think even if at the time they had another name for their infiltrated agents program).
He went many times to Davos and was quite friend with Klaus Schwab .
Then something happened, maybe Putin ran with the money or they disagreed on the objectives, or it’s kabuki theater, who knows?
