Surkov spoke about his understanding of the "Russian world"

“For me, what is the“ Russian world ”.

This is wherever people speak and think in Russian.

This is where they may not speak or think in Russian, but where they respect Russian culture very much.

Where they see in the Russian model of national development an alternative to what they have at home.

There are more and more such people now, too, ”he said.

He also noted that for him the "Russian world" is also the place where "our Putin is respected."

“Where people are afraid of Russian weapons, this is also the“ Russian world ”.

This is our influence.

Where our scientists, our writers are respected, our art is all the "Russian world".

I believe these are elements of the Russian world everywhere.

This is our influence.

Not every nation has this kind of influence, ”he added.

Earlier, Surkov, in an interview with WarGonzo, spoke about the significance of the Munich speech of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
