19th September, 2023. Tweets, youtube, links. 60 minutes interview and Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy. To those fatigued by the Ukraine war I would urge you to listen to President Zelenskyy’s and ask if we hear from him emotional intelligence, empathy, compassion, rationality, which people have come to doubt. UN gathers … it is time to assess what drives Putin? Is he a warmonger because he believes he is Ivan the Terrible, Peter the Great or for that matter Catherine the Great” all of whom he respects as leaders of an expanding Russian Empire over centuries. Yes tells us; even if defeated, he will rise again like a Phoenix from the ashes, he sees himself as a Messiah (the complex too)
