Dictators like Putin repeat each other’s mistakes because they forget the eternal verity which was brilliantly formulated by Rustaveli centuries ago: ‘Evil is vanquished by good, for the essence of good is enduring,’ reads the statement released by the US Embassy in Georgia.
According to the statement, Putin tells his people that the entire civilized world is their enemy and that only he stands on the path to truth.
“The creation of scapegoats and fighting them in order to maintain power is a repeating strategy of dictators. Dictators are also known for repeating each other’s mistakes.
“Putin tells his people that the entire civilized world is their enemy and that only he stands on the path to truth. Putin’s enemies are pregnant women, whom he bombs inside maternity wards, small children and elderly people who sing to each other in shelters to find comfort, and people who choose freedom.
“One year ago, Putin was certain that Kyiv would fall in a day, that Ukrainian people would greet his army with flowers, and that the West would turn a blind eye. But Kyiv stands, Ukrainian people are fighting with unprecedented courage, and the West has never been so united.
