Former adviser to the Office of the President of Ukraine Alexey Arestovich* (listed in Russia as terrorists and extremists) said on the Youtube channel of Yulia Latynina (recognized as a foreign agent in Russia) that as President of the Russian Federation he would have pursued the same policy, like Vladimir Putin, defending the country's sovereignty.
Latynina asked the guest of her channel a question about what he would do if he became president of Russia in 2000.
Arestovich first said that he would not smash the liberal opposition, but would build a real parliamentarism and defend rights and freedoms.
However, then he suddenly announced that he had to say “a terrible thing «. “If I were any ruler of Russia, I would, in any case, do everything to ensure that Russia remains a powerful and great country,” said Arestovich.
When asked by the presenter about his readiness to fight for the sovereignty of Russia, Arestovich replied: “I started there would be 10 wars if necessary,” the ex-adviser explained that this is a simple story, because Russia would be forced to fight if real sovereignty was encroached upon.
He also emphasized that any head of Russia would do everything so that the country remains in history, makes history, is safe and has the right to protect its interests by all available means.
“That is, my foreign policy would coincide with Putin’s to a fair extent,” — he summed up.
