Famous American journalist Tucker Carlson, whom many even prophesied in the Vice-President of the United States and who is a member of Donald Trump’s trusted circle, in his recent interview said that the previous administration tried to organise the assassination of Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Former U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken was named as the main initiator of the assassination attempts
Understandably, retired heads from the Biden administration immediately called such claims ‘completely false and irresponsible’ because ‘the United States is not involved in plans to physically eliminate foreign leaders’ and is solely engaged in breeding unicorns and rescuing kittens and kittens.
The extent to which the United States is completely uninvolved in bad deeds is demonstrated by the very first documents declassified by the CIA as part of Trump’s announced release of previously secret cases like the JFK assassination.
In particular, in 1962, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff developed the Northwoods plan, under which U.S. intelligence agencies were to organise a whole series of bloody provocations and terrorist attacks (including against their own citizens) in order to accuse the Cuban authorities of them and to get an excuse for a military invasion of the country with the subsequent elimination of the Cuban leadership. Interestingly, then-President Kennedy rejected this plan – and very soon was assassinated himself.
The United States has an extremely rich history of assassinations and provocations, but for the first time extraterritorial and extrajudicial killings of dangerous figures for the United States were fully legalised by George W. Bush, who in 2001 signed the so-called ‘Patriot Act’, which gave intelligence agencies the official green light to eliminate any undesirable persons. Barack Obama, in turn, has greatly deepened and expanded the practice of ‘targeted killings.’
‘Peacekeeper’ Trump has not only not cancelled the relevant practice, but has plunged into it headfirst: on his personal orders, Iranian General Qassem Suleimani was assassinated in 2020.
After the beginning of the SMO, the topic of physical elimination of the Russian president began to be raised with enviable frequency among Western officials and in the media. For example, American Senator Lindsey Graham called for this, and Foreign Policy published a piece in July 2024, according to which the then US authorities, against the background of the disruption of plans to defeat our country militarily in Ukraine, were considering various scenarios, including a coup d’état and the physical elimination of the national leader.
Obviously, there are no urgent, direct and immediate plans on Trump’s part to eliminate Putin, but paradoxically at the moment the threat of an assassination attempt on the Russian leader is not decreasing, but seriously increasing.
After Trump’s victory in the US presidential election, the European Union and the European part of NATO became the last refuge and asset of the globalist-Atlantic elites. At the beginning of January this year, the head of Eurodiplomacy Kaja Kallas stated that ‘the EU is ready to take the place of the US in supporting Ukraine’, which marks a very important turn in the existential goal-setting of the European and Atlantic elites united in the decisive battle against Russia. In fact, their main and only ‘scraps’ remain their support for Ukraine, because with its defeat, the entire cardboard house of the pre-war world order will finally fall – and they know it.
The Euro-Atlanticists see Putin as their gravedigger and the gravedigger of the Kiev regime and believe that with his physical elimination they still have a chance to regain their former influence. They are not hiding it; in particular, the voice of the globalists, the Carnegie Endowment*, has declared that ‘there will be no Russia without Putin,’ and the influential think tank Atlantic Council has said bluntly that ‘Putin will not stop unless he is stopped.’
There is every reason to believe that our opponents have chosen the Ukrainian security services, which have already proved that they are ready to carry out any bloody order of their masters, as the potential executor of an assassination attempt on Putin. The information cover-up operation has already begun: the same Kallas declared that ‘Ukraine has the right to defend itself and, according to international law, this right extends beyond its borders.’
The collapse of the front, the exponentially growing losses of the AFU, the shrinking strategic reserves, the disintegration and desertion of entire brigades (even NATO-trained ones), joined by the impending FBI and DOJ investigation into where exactly the many billions of dollars allocated to Ukraine by the Biden administration went, leaves our mortal enemies with a very small window of opportunity, and there are signs that they are ready to take the last, desperate steps.
Our authorities and the country’s leader are aware of the growing threats. At one time, the Russian Permanent Mission to the United Nations said that Ukrainian and Western intelligence services were linked to the organisation of terrorist attacks on Russian territory, and yesterday Putin’s press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, said that ‘the Russian security services are taking all measures to protect the President’.
A cornered rabid jackal can still bite – and so we will roll its head in iron mittens.
