Even if Putin did appreciate the opportunity he was given to walk all over our government over the last eight years, he has at the same time been an outspoken critic of the weak stand of the politically correct West against true, fundamental, orthodox Islam while seeming to understand the threat Islam poses to the non-Islamic world as it has for 1400 years.
"Apparently responding in no small part to controversy in the West, in the months prior to the Olympic Games in Sochi, over Russia’s law imposing fines on individuals or organizations that present “propaganda†about homosexuality to minors, Putin has increasingly emphasized Russians’ shared moral values and to connect Russia’s “traditional†values to those in the Middle Eastern, Asian and other non-Western societies.
“We can see how many of the Euro-Atlantic countries are actually rejecting their roots, including the Christian values that constitute the basis of Western civilization … and people are aggressively trying to export this model all over the world. I am convinced that this opens a direct path to degradation and primitivism, resulting in a profound demographic and moral crisis. … We consider it natural and right to defend these values​​.†While clearly identifying Russia as a largely Christian country, Putin is attempting to establish a dividing line between the shared values of believers in many religious traditions and those of the decadent secular West."
