Russian patriot says goal is to crash Russia's economy
Original: “My goal is to crash Russia’s economy - because I am a Russian patriot”
A self-described Russian patriot has declared that his aim is to crash Russia's economy, framing the effort as an act of loyalty to his country rather than betrayal. The statement, made in an interview published by Israeli business outlet Calcalist, is drawing attention for its striking inversion of patriotic rhetoric, tying opposition to the Kremlin's economic course to love of Russia itself.
Why now: The provocative claim that destroying Russia's economy is a patriotic act is striking and touches ongoing debate over sanctions and Russia's wartime economy.
