“We Can Only Hope that Putin and Xi Will Be Removed from Power Before They Can Destroy Our Civilization.“ – George Soros Releases Stunning Message on Ukraine

We Must Stand with Ukraine, as They Stand for Us

February 26, 2022

I have witnessed Ukraine transform from a collapsing part of the Soviet Union to a liberal democracy and an open society. It has faced countless acts of Russian aggression, but has persisted. Brave Ukrainians are now on the frontline and risking their lives. The horrible images coming out of Ukraine remind me of war torn Budapest in 1944 and the siege of Sarajevo in 1993. It is important that both the transatlantic alliance (the United States, Canada, the European Union, and the United Kingdom) but also other nations do whatever is in their power to support Ukraine in its time of existential threat. Putin’s actions are a direct attack on the sovereignty of all States that were once in the Soviet Union, and beyond. Russia is in clear violation of the United Nations charter and should be held accountable. Allowing Putin to succeed on his quest will send a message across the world that nations can simply be created or dissolved by brute force. We must stand with Ukraine, as they stand for us.

Soros is adamant that the US get involved in Ukraine and then take on Russia and China.

Soros wants Russia’s Putin and China’s Xi removed from power.  How should we take this?  What’s in it for George Soros?

This morning Soros allegedly wrote an article for the Japan Times.  Here are some pieces from that article.

The invasion was preceded by a long meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping on 4th February — the beginning of the Chinese Lunar New Year celebrations and the Beijing Winter Olympic Games. At the end of that meeting, the two men released a 5,000-word, carefully drafted document announcing a close partnership between their two countries. The document is stronger than any treaty and must have required detailed negotiations in advance…

…I don’t know Putin personally, but I have watched his rise very closely, aware of his ruthlessness. He reduced the capital of Chechnya, Grozny, to rubble, just as he is currently threatening to do to the capital of Ukraine, Kyiv…

…Russia may well lose the war. The United States and the European Union are both sending defensive weapons to Ukraine, and there are efforts to buy Russian-made MIG fighters that Ukrainian pilots know how to fly. These could make all the difference. Regardless of the outcome, Putin has already worked wonders when it comes to strengthening the EU’s resolve and unity.

Meanwhile, Xi seems to have realised that Putin has gone rogue. On 8th March, one day after Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi had insisted that the friendship between China and Russia remained “rock solid,” Xi called French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to say that he supported their peacemaking efforts. He wanted maximum restraint in the war in order to avert a humanitarian crisis.

It is far from certain that Putin will accede to Xi’s wishes. Soros ended the article by saying, “We can only hope that Putin and Xi will be removed from power before they can destroy our civilisation.“

So why is George Soros, who has done all he can to weaken Europe and the United States over his career suddenly care about removing Putin and Xi? It is not that we all disagree with him but what is his motive here?
