| [Newsweek] Attacks on European countries are beneficial for Russia, the leader of the nationalist Liberal Democrat party told Russian state television on Tuesday night. Vladimir Zhirinovsky, known for his anti-Western views, spoke on the popular panel show "An Evening with Vladimir Solovyev" hours after blasts killed at least 31 people in Brussels. In his trademark bombastic style, the former deputy speaker of parliament took the floor and urged Russians not to express sympathy for the victims. "Terrorists attacks are happening in Europe and they will spread all over it," Zhirinovsky shouted at other panelists. "That is beneficial for us. Let them perish and die." Zhirinovsky’s rationale was that after such attacks European countries would see Russia as an ally and align themselves with Moscow. “Let them then come to us and beg us,” Zhirinovsky said. |
