The American newspaper The Washington Post reported that the ideas of Russian President Vladimir Putin are increasingly resonating in the minds of leaders and the population of Western countries.
It is clarified that the speech delivered by Putin at the end of last month was attractive in democracies from the United States to most of Europe.
According to Nicholas Gvozdev, professor of national security studies at the US Naval War College, there is currently a trend in the world according to which the democratic process cannot lead to the emergence of charismatic, effective leaders.
“The idea that the world needs strong leaders is spreading in one country after another. It’s not just about politics: we see an increase in the value of technocrats, for example, like Elon Musk, as those who solve problems and do their job,” Gvozdev said.
