Editor update: After publishing the below in good faith we have been advised that it is a hoax from an unknown source. What a shame. It does at least remind us of what our leaders should be saying in Parliament!
“In Russia live Russians. Any minority, from anywhere, if it wants to live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, should speak Russian, and should respect the Russian laws. If they prefer Sharia Law, then we advise them to go to those places where that’s the state law.
“Russia does not need minorities. Minorities need Russia, and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell ‘discrimination’.
“We better learn from the suicides of America, England*, Holland and France, if we are to survive as a nation. The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of most minorities.
“When this honorable legislative body thinks of creating new laws, it should have in mind the national interest first, observing that the minorities are not Russians.”
Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, addressing the Duma, (Russian Parliament) on Monday 4th February 2013. The politicians in the Duma gave Putin a standing ovation for five minutes.

I wonder what he thinks about zionism?

Actually there is some speech on “YouTube” I think that he gives on the perils of zionism.
This is a different one.

This quote is fake. Putin never said that.

Here are the transcripts of all of Putin’s speeches. Can you find the speech in question?: https://eng.kremlin.ru/transcripts

There are a number of hoax reports that circulate periodically claiming that strident statements against immigration have been made by certain White leaders, in this case Putin, but usually the prime ministers of Australia or New Zealand. I believe these hoax reports originate from our enemies and their purpose is to fool people into emigrating from our European homelands and to create disillusionment by spreading ostensibly hope giving information which subsequently turns out not to be true.
.
In the vein of recent Carlsberg adverts I think we can say that ‘if Carlsberg created a European leader’, then the words attributed to Putin above are what such a leader would say.

“their purpose is to fool people into emigrating from our European homelands”
I don’t think it has quite that effect but does as you say create disillusionment when it turns out to be a false dawn.
It also helps put the more sheep like back to sleep, thinking “Something is being done” & they don’t realise that the opposite is true.

In view of Constantin’s comments we must be back to, “An enigma within an enigma.”
Steve

I think it was a riddle within an enigma wrapped in a puzzle or some such thing.
Personally I have found that not to be true.

Even if Putin did not say that, I still don’t see him welcoming sharia law.

It does say this is a replacement for an earlier one, albeit larger.

It may be a hoax, one of the best paragraphs I’ve ever read!

I want that to be true….. badly. We are not making any sense in our world today.

I agree that the speech is probably fake, there is a lot of stuff going about on Japan not accepting islam or moslems but I don’t know enough about Japan to know the truth of that one.

He here is talking to the UN.
“Do you realise what you’ve done?”
