Click to enlarge<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The recent Russian invasion of Ukraine has garnered a lot of attention from both the mainstream and alternative media.<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of theories floating around about what\u2019s really going on, the true reason behind the invasion and the true motives and allegiances of Russian President, Vladimir Putin.<\/p>\n<p>Among this entangled mess of assertions, ill-conceived opinions and downright false assumptions is a certain theory that has gained traction in alt media circles, and that is the idea that Putin is some kind of saviour, and that his moves in Ukraine represent an attack against the Western, globalist elite.<\/p>\n<p>When I first saw this claim circulating on the web, the immediate thought that came to my mind is that this must have originated with the QAnon crowd. You see, in the Q-niverse, Vladimir Putin is one of the good guys and he is given the same messiah status as the God-king himself, Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the QAnon \u201cdecoders\u201d are still very active online and they are the driving force behind the Russia-went-into-Ukraine-to-save-us-from-the-biolabs theory, itself a curious idea that seemed to have originated on Twitter, and was ardently censored before circulating widely in the alternative media.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, Victoria Nuland, the US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/_InThisTogether\/status\/1502323394796265472\">admitted<\/a>\u00a0that Ukraine houses \u201cbiological research facilities\u201d and expressed concern that Russia would commandeer them. Um\u2026 Okay. Anyone else think this narrative seems eerily similar to the whole Covid lab-leak hypothesis?<\/p>\n<p>In both cases, the theories have followed a similar life-cycle:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Originated at the beginning of the event but exact origins unclear<\/li>\n<li>Widely promoted in alternative circles<\/li>\n<li>Heavily censored on social media and denounced by fact-checkers<\/li>\n<li>Finally accepted into the mainstream narrative<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newbraveworld.org\/addicted-to-hope-the-qult-of-qanon\/\">my article on the Q phenomenon<\/a>, I endorsed the idea that Q was actually a military intelligence Psy-op being run from within the Western intelligence establishment. This is an idea I derived from the excellent research of Bernard Grover, Joseph Farrell and Catherine Austin-Fitts.<\/p>\n<p>Although \u2018Q\u2019 the entity hasn\u2019t posted anything for over a year, I don\u2019t believe that such a sophisticated operation merely vanished into thin air.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, I have a hunch that the powers behind Q learned everything they needed to learn about how information circulates in alternative circles and are now using that data to \u201cpoison the well\u201d as it were by subtly introducing bits and pieces of misinformation into the picture in an effort to infiltrate and discredit alternative media. However, that is a subject for another article altogether.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice it to say that many people are pushing the idea that Putin is trying to fight back against the Western globalist elite, thereby implying he is NOT on board with the overarching WEF\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newbraveworld.org\/your-guide-to-the-great-reset\/\">technocratic control<\/a>\u00a0agenda.<\/p>\n<p>However, the facts seem to indicate otherwise. Here are ten reasons to question the \u201cPutin vs Davos\u201d narrative.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. RUSSIA\u2019S COVID VACCINE IS THE SAME AS THOSE IN THE WEST<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Russia played along with the Covid-19 nonpandemic just like most other countries in the world. They even developed their own vaccine called \u201cSputnik V\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The vaccine was created by the Russian Health Ministry\u2019s Gamaleya Center, an institution that describes itself as \u201cthe world\u2019s leading research institution\u201d, yet doesn\u2019t even\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edwardslavsquat.substack.com\/p\/sputnik-v-is-a-scam\">have enough money<\/a>\u00a0to install an elevator!<\/p>\n<p>Sputnik V uses an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news-medical.net\/health\/What-are-Adenovirus-Based-Vaccines.aspx\">adenovirus vector<\/a>\u00a0to transport synthetic genetic material into cells, causing the cell\u2019s machinery to manufacture the viral \u201cspike protein\u201d (so they say). Although different from mRNA technology, vaccines utilizing Adenovirus vectors are arguably still a form of gene therapy (\u201cAd\u201d vectors have been used as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41541-021-00356-x\">gene delivery vehicles<\/a>\u00a0since the introduction of gene therapy).<\/p>\n<p>So yes, Russia\u2019s vaccine is based on the same\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newbraveworld.org\/mrna-vaccines-eugenics-and-the-push-for-transhumanism\/\">transhumanist technology<\/a>\u00a0that all the other injections use. In fact, according to Gamaleya\u2019s director, Alexander Gintsburg, there are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edwardslavsquat.substack.com\/p\/sputnik-v-what-youre-not-being-told\">no significant differences<\/a>\u00a0between Sputnik V and the adenovirus-based vaccine produced by the Oxford-AstraZeneca bunch.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, in December 2020, Russia\u2019s Gamaleya research centre\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sputniknews.com\/20201221\/russias-gamaleya-research-uk-swedish-astrazeneca-sign-memorandum-of-cooperation-in-covid-19-fight-1081524451.html\">signed<\/a>\u00a0a \u201cmemorandum of cooperation\u201d with AstraZeneca, in the \u201cfight against COVID-19\u201d. Not only did Putin participate in the signing ceremony, he stated that he was<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">absolutely convinced that such an attitude towards partnership today can serve as a good, convincing example of combining scientific forces, technologies, investments for a common goal \u2013 to protect the life, health and safety of millions of people on the planet as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>(Let\u2019s not forget the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newbraveworld.org\/gatekeepers-of-medical-research\/\">links between<\/a>\u00a0the Oxford-AstraZeneca researchers, the Wellcome Trust and the British eugenics society).<\/p>\n<p>Putin himself has\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edwardslavsquat.substack.com\/p\/2-doses-in-2-days-putin-is-officially\">openly endorsed<\/a>\u00a0both Russia\u2019s vaccine as well as their peculiar \u201cintranasal vaccination\u201d booster.<\/p>\n<p>That brings us to the second point\u2026<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. RUSSIA COLLABORATES WITH BIG PHARMA<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The developers of Russia\u2019s Sputnik V vaccine have conducted join trials not only with AstraZeneca but with Pfizer and Moderna as well!<\/p>\n<p>In October 2021 Kirill Dmitriev, head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), said that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edwardslavsquat.substack.com\/p\/sputnik-v-what-youre-not-being-told\">he thought<\/a>\u00a0the Pfizer and Sputnik injections would be \u201ca very successful combination\u201d. One of Sputnik V\u2019s lead developers also voiced his support for the rollout of foreign vaccines in Russia.<\/p>\n<p>Just recently, this March, Russian pharmaceutical company R-Pharm\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edwardslavsquat.substack.com\/p\/russia-pushes-for-astrazenecasputnik\">applied for registration<\/a>\u00a0of the AstraZeneca Vaccine in Russia. This comes off the back of a new report published by the RDIF claiming amazing benefits from combining \u201cSputnik Lite\u201d and the UK-Swedish AstraZeneca shot.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on these two points, I highly recommend checking out\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edwardslavsquat.substack.com\/\">Edward Slavsquat\u2019s blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. VACCINE PASSPORTS ARE MANDATORY IN RUSSIA<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Russia was an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bignewsnetwork.com\/news\/267641751\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-covid-19-passports-in-russia\">early adopter<\/a>\u00a0of vaccination passports. By early 2021, residents were able to receive a Covid passport, proving their vaccination status. The passes contain a QR code that can be scanned at various venues and allow residents to receive discounts and other benefits.<\/p>\n<p>The passports remained voluntary for some time, until, in November 2021,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.themoscowtimes.com\/2021\/11\/12\/russia-to-introduce-vaccine-passports-amid-record-virus-surge-a75551\">the Moscow Times reported<\/a>\u00a0that:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">The Russian government said Friday it had submitted to parliament two bills that will introduce mandatory health passes to access restaurants and public transport, amid a new wave of coronavirus cases.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the article, the new legislation was aimed at \u201cboosting Russia\u2019s sluggish immunization rates amid strong anti-vaccination sentiment\u201d. Sounds familiar.<\/p>\n<p>The measure is supposedly in place until June 1, 2022.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. RUSSIA IS DEVELOPING ITS OWN CENTRAL BANK DIGITAL CURRENCY (CBDC)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This year the Bank of Russia\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.coindesk.com\/policy\/2022\/02\/16\/bank-of-russia-proceeds-with-digital-ruble-renews-push-for-crypto-ban\/\">began piloting<\/a>\u00a0their \u201cdigital ruble\u201d, its version of a central bank digital currency. The central bank also called for a total ban on cryptocurrencies, stating that the digital ruble would become an alternative to decentralized coins.<\/p>\n<p>Three banks in Russia are already supporting pilot transactions using their existing mobile app banking technology with nine more banks expected to join them soon.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re unfamiliar with \u201ccentral bank digital currencies\u201d, they are a centralized form of digital,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2021\/10\/01\/programmable-digital-currency-the-next-stage-of-the-new-normal\/\">programmable<\/a>\u00a0money, issued and controlled by the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.technocracy.news\/day-8-technocracy-and-global-banks\/\">central banks<\/a>, allowing for complete surveillance across all transactions, giving the banks the ability to control\u00a0who can spend what and where.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, the introduction of CBDCs is a key part of the technocratic control grid that the WEF globalists seek to construct and Russia is fully on board with the plan.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. RUSSIA\u2019S COVID LOCKDOWN WAS JUST AS STRICT AS THE WEST\u2019S<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Like most countries around the world,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.themoscowtimes.com\/2021\/03\/30\/one-year-on-how-russias-coronavirus-lockdown-hit-the-economy-a73410\">Russia instituted a draconian lockdown<\/a>\u00a0as a measure to \u201cfight\u201d the Covid-19 \u201cpandemic\u201d. The initial lockdown began in April 2020 and lasted approximately six weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Russia\u2019s capital, Moscow instituted\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2021\/10\/21\/europe\/moscow-lockdown-october-2021-covid-intl\/index.html\">another lockdown<\/a>\u00a0in October 2021 and also ordered all unvaccinated citizens over 60 to remain home for four months.<em>\u00a0Four months<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p>Granted, Russia\u2019s lockdowns haven\u2019t been as long or as many as certain other countries. However, according to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ourworldindata.org\/grapher\/covid-stringency-index?tab=chart&amp;time=2020-09-20..latest&amp;country=USA~GBR~CAN~FRA~ITA~DEU~JPN~CHN~IND~IDN~RUS\">Covid-19 Stringency Index<\/a>, Russia\u2019s Covid-19 measures were just as strict as their Western counterparts and sometimes more so.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, Russia played along with the phoney pandemic narrative.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. PUTIN HAS DECLARED SUPPORT FOR GLOBALIZATION AND AGENDA 21<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Last month, Russia and China issued a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/en.kremlin.ru\/supplement\/5770#sel=13:1:W2k,13:15:v3x;16:104:Lx3,16:159:lrj\">joint statement<\/a>\u00a0on <em>\u201cinternational relations entering a new era and the global sustainable development\u201d,<\/em> in which they expressed support for globalization, Agenda 21, vaccines, pandemic control, financing for climate change, the digital economy and more.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some key snippets from the report (emphasis added):<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">The ongoing pandemic of the new coronavirus infection poses a serious challenge to the fulfilment of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

In 2007, Putin appointed Kissinger to co-chair a bilateral \u201cworking group\u201d aimed at improving US-Russia relations.<\/p>\n<p>Kissinger and the team that accompanied him to Moscow were all\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thenewamerican.com\/kissinger-putin-and-the-new-world-order\/\">high-level members<\/a>\u00a0of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), one of the prominent Western \u201cthink tanks\u201d leading the charge for a New World Order. Kissinger is also a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Henry_Kissinger\">member<\/a>\u00a0of the Bilderberg Group and the Bohemian Club.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>8. PUTIN HAS TIES TO THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Putin has been attending events organized by the WEF since the early 1990s.<\/p>\n<p>Just last year, WEF head Klaus Schwab invited Putin to give a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurasiareview.com\/27012021-vladimir-putin-at-davos-online-forum-transcript\/\">special address<\/a>\u00a0at the WEF annual meeting (held in digital Davos).<\/p>\n<p>During his address, Putin called for more testing and vaccines as measures to combat the coronavirus, stating that<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">It is essential to\u00a0join and\u00a0coordinate the\u00a0efforts of\u00a0the\u00a0world in\u00a0countering the\u00a0spread of\u00a0the\u00a0virus and\u00a0making the\u00a0much needed vaccines more accessible. We need to\u00a0help the\u00a0countries that need support, including the\u00a0African nations. I\u00a0am referring to\u00a0expanding the\u00a0scale of\u00a0testing and\u00a0vaccinations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He then went on to emphasize the role of central banks in rebuilding global economies \u201caffected by the pandemic\u201d, in what was seemingly an endorsement of Schwab\u2019s Great Reset agenda:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">So, the\u00a0key question today is how to\u00a0build a\u00a0programme of\u00a0actions in\u00a0order to\u00a0not only quickly restore the\u00a0global and\u00a0national economies affected by\u00a0the\u00a0pandemic, but to\u00a0ensure that this recovery is sustainable in\u00a0the\u00a0long run, relies on\u00a0a\u00a0high-quality structure and\u00a0helps overcome the\u00a0burden of\u00a0social imbalances. Clearly, with the\u00a0above restrictions and\u00a0macroeconomic policy in\u00a0mind, economic growth will largely rely on\u00a0fiscal incentives with state budgets and\u00a0central banks playing the\u00a0key role.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schwab even\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bitchute.com\/video\/hKH7c6UbCHDP\/\">claimed<\/a>\u00a0that Putin was a member of his \u201cYoung Global Leaders\u201d program, graduates of which include Justin Trudeau, Angela Merkel, Tony Blair, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and Emmanuel Macron.<\/p>\n<p>However, apart from Schwab having said so, there is no other evidence to support this claim, and Putin would have been too old to join when the program was launched anyway.<\/p>\n<p>So, did Schwab just make a mistake? The man is in his 80s so it\u2019s understandable if he did, or was his slip a sign that the two share a rather close relationship? Putin did begin his WEF address with an intimate \u201cDear Klaus\u201d after all\u2026<\/p>\n<h3><strong>9. PUTIN\u2019S WAR IN UKRAINE IS ACCELERATING THE RISE OF CBDCS ALL OVER THE WORLD<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Kit Knightly at OffGuardian recently published\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2022\/03\/19\/ukraine-crisis-accelerating-rise-of-central-bank-digital-currencies\/\">an article<\/a>\u00a0titled \u201cUkraine crisis accelerating rise of Central Bank Digital Currencies\u201d, highlighting the fact that governments around the world are developing and trialling CBDCs.<\/p>\n<p>As stated earlier, CBDCs would give the state absolute control by allowing them to track individual transactions, restrict people\u2019s spending and ensure people only purchase goods and services that the state deems to be acceptable.<\/p>\n<p>As Knightly rightly points out,<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Western governments are currently declaring financial war on dozens of private citizens who have not been charged \u2013 let alone convicted \u2013 of any crime, just because of their nationality. It\u2019s being done under the guise of \u201cpunishing dirty Russians\u201d, but what can be done to an oligarch can be done to anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><strong>10. THE WAR IN UKRAINE IS AIDING THE GREAT RESET<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Part of the globalist agenda is the destruction of the current economy, allowing for the introduction of a new economic system (the \u201cGreat Reset\u201d), one based on CBDCs, surveillance and run by artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n<p>As I said in a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newbraveworld.org\/your-guide-to-the-great-reset\/\">previous post<\/a>,<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cThe elites dress it up with buzzwords and catch-phrases like \u201csustainable development\u201d and \u201cinclusivity\u201d, but at the end of the day, the \u201cgreat reset\u201d is about the creation of a digital surveillance state run on artificial intelligence where we all transact with \u201ccentral bank digital currencies\u201d (that can be fully tracked and traced).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Putin\u2019s war in Ukraine is aiding this goal by helping to further destabilize the world economy and destroy the middle class (exactly what COVID was meant to do).<\/p>\n<p>Sky News is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/news.sky.com\/story\/ukraine-war-increases-in-food-prices-inevitable-as-conflict-hits-production-costs-12569861\">reporting<\/a>\u00a0that an increase in food prices is \u201cinevitable\u201d due to the rising costs of fertilizer, animal feed and fuel, raising concern for food security in the UK. Likewise,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pressnewsagency.org\/russias-war-is-raising-gas-prices-and-roiling-financial-markets\/\">the New York Times reported<\/a>\u00a0that \u201cRussia\u2019s war is raising gas prices and roiling financial markets\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>According to the article,<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">If the effective closing of Russian financial markets and rising commodity prices lead to a steeper stock market decline, or have other, unexpected consequences, the Fed will be in a tough place. It is moving toward tightening monetary conditions but might have to reverse itself and engage in another rescue operation, as it did in March 2020.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This comes alongside\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.advisorperspectives.com\/commentaries\/2022\/03\/15\/war-in-ukraine-recession-in-europe\">predictions of a recession<\/a>\u00a0in Europe.
