Putins is more powerful

dermmy:
Putins is more powerful

hOw?

The US is more powerful than Russia,but Putin is more powerful than trump.

seanwilliam:
hOw?

He outsmarted the west by annexing crimea during the Ukraine crisis. He outsmarted them again by moving his forces to Syria and propping up Assad's regime, though Trump was not the president of America when he did all these. The way Putin plays politics is different from other western leaders you know he served in the Red army, he was a KGB spy and a judo champion so he's very smart. He's a brilliant tactician. Trump does not even have experience when it comes to international politics he plays politics with sentiments Putins has been in the business so he knows how to outsmart and deal with his perceived foes.

Putin does not bow to pressure. I believe Putin is feared by most western leaders.

As yourself, which of the two countries can sanction the other? I doubt if Russia has any economic power to sanction any country in her league.. Russia has been under US sanction up till now affecting some areas. You guys are the ones hyping up Russia. Take nuclear bomb out of the picture. Number one economic and military power belong to the US.

The same Putin that Trump flog with economic sanction anyhow and Putin can’t retaliate

The question is "Who is more powerful between Putin and Trump" not between Russia and USA. A lot of people fails because they jump to the answer without understanding the question being asked.

He also influence U S election for trump to emerge.

Putin is the most powerful world leader. He help trump to win election. The matter is under investigation in the US. They refuse to admit that Russian hacked into thier electronic voting system. But they to use the word 'influence'

Putin and Trump have been having sectret meetings after which Trump will destroy the interpreter memo. This has raise a lot of questions in U S.

Without controversy, great is Vladirmirovich Putin the servant of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, whom through various prophecies has used and will continue to use Russia and Putin to checkmate, frustrate and eventually destroy the United States of Abomination, abomicity, and abomilocal government.

Vladimir Putin is undoubtedly the most powerful of the two for obvious reasons.

First, when Putin came into power, Russia was a mess economically, and the Russian rubble isn't worth it's place in toilet papers in terms of value. The Russian military was also in a mess in the sense that while equipments are capable, many of them were old, out of date at some points , and personnel were ill motivated. Corruption was the order of the day and many Russians were not too willing to stay in the country, especially with oil prices down. People from nearby countries doesn't fancy going over to Russia for work.

But as soon as the only begotten son of David got to work, the fortunes of Russia started changing rapidly.

Putin went after many corrupt oligarchs and jailed a few of them like Kolomoisky. Many then fled Russia to avoid being sent to jail, and went to base in London, which is the world's official capital of money laundering and corruption.

Many sectors of the Russian economy started developing. Production capacity increased two folds as the government under Putin began prioritising the creation of high tech civilian products like civilian helicopters, passengers planes, gigantic civilian trucks for industrial use and for sport racing, and many other products.

No year goes by without Putin signing one or more landmark economic deals that enhances the prospect of the Russian economy and the general well being of Russia.

As the evil western empire saw that Russia was rising and feared a resurgent bear, they tried every means to stop the progress Putin is making.

First, they disrupted the peace in Ukraine and removed the Russian speaking President, whom accepted a Putin negotiated deal instead of moving over to the EU. This angered the empire and they overthrown Yanukovich in a coup encoded color coded revolution.

But Putin saw it all coming even before the west carried out their plans.

He allowed them to carry out their plans because he saw it as an opportunity to bring back Crimea, a strategic security peninsula to Russia. They thought Putin would take the bait by officially invading Ukraine. But to their surprise and out right bewilderment, he didn't. Rather, he cleverly outsmarted the western design by annexing Crimea without firing a single shot. That is something Trump can never do. .

Today, Crimea is back home and part of Russia without bloodshed.

Then the west, seeing that they have lost it all in Ukraine brought in sanctions under all sorts of lies. But the effects didn't even last up to a year. Putin cleverly steer the Russian economy away from the effects of sanctions, and instead of them to hurt, they became a blessing in so much that many Russians wishes the sanctions continue.

Sanctions allowed the Russian economy to become self reliant in many areas. For instance, engine parts for military and civilian projects that were dependants on Ukrainian industries started to be produced locally. Foreign finances that were cut in some critical areas by sanctions quickly saw replacements from China and other joint venture deals with nations from the East of Asia like India and the BRICS.

The people that actually felt the sanctions were Russian oligarchs abroad, not the Russian economy. And guess what Putin did with his cleverness again; he offered pardon to any of the haunted oligarch who is aufferring from western persecution, giving them the privilege to bring back their wealth home and become free again.

Trump doesn't have that kind of smartness. Putin knows when to make an enemy to become a friend.

Even in the middle of sanctions and counter sanctions, Putin didn't allow personal ego and state ideology to define reality as far as the existence of Russia is concerned. He knows how to separate political emotions from economic matters.

Hence inspite of the US sanctions, Putin never cut off the supply of Russian jet engines to the US, without which the US cannot go to space. Call it a genuine nationalist who puts the interest of his people beyond personal bravery. This is one of the traits Trump lacked, especially when dealing with US allies and China on trade issues.Putin will never miss an opportunity that put foods on the table of ordinary Russians, and now you understand why he is the only leader in the whole of Europe that enjoys more than 80% approval ratings by the common people.

Then enter Putin into Syria.

At this stage, Putin has redeveloped the Russian military economic. The military that was once a laughing stoke of the west is now the bug that plaques the evil designs of the West.
After he gave a resounding speech on the floor of the UN General Assembly in 2015, a speech that reveals so many geopolitical facts and secrets as such that the US decided to censored the speech in America to prevent their people from knowing the truth, the Russian military gave a one hour noticed to the US army zonal Headquarters in Iraq and immediately Putin started the bombardment of the western sponsored terrorists. The West said Assad must go, but Putin said he must stay, and till date, Assad is still in power, courtsey of the Russian military might.

Again, the west used Erdogan of Turkey to try draw Russia into a long standing and shooting conflicts by downing a Russian plane. Instead, Putin refused to take the bait. He cleverly outsmarted the US plans and instead turn Turkey from being an enemy into a friend. Today, the US can only cry foul as Russian made S-400 missiles system moves into Turkey, a NATO member.

I can go on and on, but let me stop here. Putin is the most powerful leader by a thousand miles.
