Zhirinovsky Says America in Twilight
The United States has displayed all the signs of decline and can no longer claim world leadership, announced deputy speaker of the Russian State Duma and leader of the LDPR Vladimir Zhirinovsky. He was commenting on the scandal surrounding the launch of drunken American astronauts into space.
“The country has no future and is sinking into the ranks of marginal states,” Zhirinovsky told journalists. “In this case, we will not gloat. It is very sad. The twilight of America has come. Such a state cannot be a claimant to world leadership.”
Zhirinovsky continued by saying that everything in the U.S. points to decline: “drunkenness among astronauts”; tragedies in American schools and colleges, where students shoot each other and their teachers; increased technogenic catastrophes; and high crime and drug addiction.
“Conditions among the native population of the U.S. today is not much better than during the first wave of migration, when the first immigrants slaughtered the native inhabitants,” he explained.
Zhirinovsky also criticized the country's foreign policy. He said that American diplomacy is increasingly concentrated on the destruction of other countries, specifically Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran and Libya.
“The U.S. is a country that the majority of the plant hates today,” he concluded. “It is in first place by the number of those who are antagonistic to it in the world.”
