Russia Sends Message to Americans via Twitter

Message to Americans Posted on Twitter [in the form of an image] Copied here verbatim [1]
From: Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin, March 26, 2022 

“My dear friends in America,
This is a special moment in history as I address you directly for the first time. As the President of the Russian Federation, I felt the need to express my views to you directly without the filter of media or governmental organizations who obscure the fact our two nations have existed peacefully for centuries. In fact, we were allies through not one but two world wars. We have cooperated, culturally and scientifically for years, including most recently, on the international space station. Russian rockets have taken Americans into space and American ships have delivered much needed medical and humanitarian aid to us in our times of need.
There is NO REASON for our two great nations to be adversaries. Unfortunately, there are powers that be who do not want such peaceful coexistence. Your current president represents them. He has steadfastly upped tension against Russia through direct personal attacks on me, calling me a ‘killer’, a ‘thug’ and a ‘butcher’ and has instituted punishing diplomatic, economic and political sanctions on the Russian people. These sanctions have not only cost us, but have cost you the American people. You need not look beyond your local gas pump, grocery store or rent payment to realize something is terribly wrong and you need not look back more than a year ago to realize you have been tricked into accepting an election result which has put an ILLEGITIMATE PRESIDENT into power.
President Biden is NOT and has NEVER been your TRUE representative. Just ask yourselves: Would anyone who cared about Americans do the things he’s done? The answer is clearly ‘NO.’ He:

• oversaw the disastrous Afghan evacuation causing the death of 13 brave American service members
• stranding billions of dollars of military gear
• sabotaged America’s energy industry by cancelling the Keystone pipeline
• passed punishing corporate taxes which have hobbled American companies
• warped America’s moral values by calling men women and women men
• robbed every citizen of their hard-earned money by unleashing a devastating wave of inflation
• dragging the United States and NATO, by extension into a disastrous military confrontation with us over Ukraine where the United States has no vested interests; adamant in stoking the Ukrainian crisis into a direct military confrontation with Russian forces which by all analysis could lead to WW3.

Please hear my words today. Take action today; rise up and say ‘NO’ to war; say ‘NO’ to President Biden. Rise up by thousands and tens of thousands and say ‘YES’ to peace. I salute you and bid you peace and happiness." [1]
                                                 Vladimir Vladimirovich, Putin, President of the Russian Federation.
