【Shoigu publishes a new article (3): The West tries to split Russia into dozens of small countries】

Moscow time October 27, 2025, Russian Federal Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu wrote in an article published in the Russian newspaper "Facts and Arguments":

Today, Russia, our entire society is suffering from aggressive external pressure. A strong anti-Russian propaganda campaign has been launched against us. Attacks on our history, culture, and spiritual values have not stopped, and they also try to create divisions among the harmony and brotherhood between the people of Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States.

Russia's enemies mistakenly believe that Russia's multinational nature is its weakness, and they stubbornly try to split the country. Their goal is the de-sovereignization of our country. They want to divide the Russian Federation into dozens of small country organizations so that it can be subjugated to their will, used, and exploited for their own interests.

The Western bloc does not understand the nature of ethnic relations, the spirit, moral strength, and unity of the multi-ethnic people of Russia, which allows the country to confidently resist destructive geopolitical techniques. It is in unity that the opportunity for freedom and the comprehensive development of the state is found.
