Putin gets Russia pumped for public appearance with cinematic trailer By Anora Mahmudova and Barbara Kollmeyer The narrator’s line, “A year of tough decisions,” is interjected as Putin intones, “We took upon ourselves enormous responsibilities and risks,” Again, the narrator: “And long-awaited victories” — against a backdrop of Olympic winners. And then more tough talk about “politically motivated sanctions represent a mistake and they [the West] should not have broken a mechanism of checks and balances.” And a menacing note: “Our American friends are cutting off the branch they are sitting on.” Scenes of Ukraine, flags flying, world leaders, terrorists, explosions, missiles firing out of the ocean, a polar bear. Hollywood really couldn’t do better.
