NATO first attempted to take down the President of Russia with petty insults and relentless persecution, but all in vain. Now they are resorting to something even more pathetic. Way to go, geniuses! Western leaders abhor Putin and Russia and this is a well-documented fact. From their constant criticism of his leadership style to their blatant disregard for Russian interests, it seems like they just can’t help but express their disdain for the man and his country.
But who can blame them? After all, Putin has made it clear that he doesn’t care about what the West thinks of him. He’s more interested in flexing his muscles and making bold moves that leave his opponents scrambling to catch up. So, while Western leaders may abhor Putin and Russia, it’s clear that Putin couldn’t care less. In fact, he’s probably enjoying the attention – after all, there’s no such thing as bad publicity, right? Now, western leaders have started giving Putin some really hilarious press attention.
Remember the ridiculous claims that stressed Putin is dying, he has many girlfriends, etc? Now, Western media is stressing that Putin is not the leader of Russia. Yes! There is no coup or any rebellion in Russia. Instead, Putin is being controlled.
By Whom? Well, Russia has a de-facto leader now! His name is Nikolai Patrushev. Yes, a really hilarious media report has got published on Spectator UK with the title, “Nikolai Patrushev, the man dripping poison into Putin’s ear”
The crux of the story!
According to a new media report by The Spectator, Nikolai Patrushev, the Secretary of the Security Council and a key figure in Vladimir Putin’s inner circle, is now one of the most influential and dangerous officials of Russia.
Reportedly, Patrushev shapes Putin’s nationalist impulses and dominates policy decisions, particularly in security affairs. Under his leadership, the Security Council secretariat has become one of the most powerful institutions in Putin’s state. As a result, Patrushev’s views have become increasingly aligned with state policy, particularly in relation to Western threats. As per the spectator, Patrushev believes that Russia is facing an insidious “Anglo-Saxon” conspiracy to bring down the regime of Russia , and the war in Ukraine is really only part of a wider struggle with NATO and the collective West.
Patrushev’s interviews in the Russian press have become indispensable harbingers of Russian policy. In his latest interview, he reaffirmed the line that the war in Ukraine is part of a wider struggle with NATO and the collective West. He warned that “American politicians trapped by their own propaganda” believe that in the event of a direct conflict with Russia, the United States is capable of launching a preventive missile strike. However, this overlooks the fact that no one in the West is actually making any such claims.
Patrushev exerts a subtle influence over Putin by controlling the information reaching his desk. He frames policy dilemmas and presents options to Putin, who is notoriously prickly about being “handled.” Patrushev’s talent lies in knowing how to manage a dangerous Tsar like Putin. Patrushev is considered to be the most dangerous member of Putin’s inner circle because he channels and shapes the worst impulses of Putin’s clique.

The One Man Army
The article is written in such a tone as if Patrushev is the de-facto leader of Russia. Do you think the above claims are enough? Wait for more. The report also highlights that Nikolai Patrushev, the Secretary of the Security Council, has played a significant role in Russia’s recent foreign policy decisions. He played a key role in the annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
Since then, Patrushev’s authority has steadily increased in Russian administration, and he now has more of a role in foreign policy than the foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov. Patrushev has been vocal in his response to recent allegations that the Nord Stream 2 bombings may have been conducted by pro-Ukrainian forces, implying that he still believes Washington is to blame. He was also involved in calling Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s recent visit to Moscow, hosting Wang Yi, director of the Communist Party’s central foreign affairs commission. Additionally, Patrushev has a busy schedule of foreign trips, most recently visiting Cuba to meet with both Miguel Díaz-Canel and former leader Raúl Castro.

Undermining Russia!
These are pretty big accusations. Still, it is more like a rant piece a man writes when he has literally run out of all options. Such reports are undoubtedly surprising, but definitely not new. NATO has been trying to take down Russia for the past year through some seriously lame tactics.
First, NATO allies imposed sanctions, but the economy of Russia didn’t move an inch and didn’t even break a sweat. Then, they attempted to seize Russia’s assets to scare Moscow. Surprisingly, even that didn’t work out. Next, they blew up crucial energy links between Russia and Europe, but that too failed. And if that wasn’t enough, they even tried to spread some rumors that Putin was on his deathbed with blood cancer. But surprise, he’s still alive and kicking. And now, they’ve come up with a new theory that Putin is being controlled by someone else.
If they’re making up a story, they could at least make it interesting. Maybe Putin is actually a shape-shifting alien or a secret agent for the Illuminati?

It is no hidden fact; western news portals are often accused of propagating a certain agenda that aligns with the views of their respective governments. Critics argue that these news outlets prioritize sensationalism over objective reporting, often relying on anonymous sources and unverified information to push a particular narrative.
The influence of western authorities on news portals continues to be a source of controversy, with many people doubting their ability to remain impartial and independent. Just wait until this news article appears in more western portals, such as the New York Times and Washington Post.
Here, NATO is really cooking stories out of thin air. They might as well concede that Russia is a difficult nut to crack and move on to more useful endeavours. For example, knitting, completing crossword puzzles, or anything else.
