– Russia is a weak country, and a weak country should be interested in the world in which the rules apply, because the principles protect the weak against strong – argues in an interview with tvn24.pl Dmitry Głuchowski, a Russian writer convicted of extramurally for “distributing lying information about the Russian army” . He is hiding in Europe. If he decided to return to Russia, he would go to the labor camp for eight years.
The book, which he began to write as a student, brought him great fame. The post -apocalyptic novel “Metro 2033” was first published on the Internet, the chapter after the chapter. It was not released until 2005, when the author was 26 years old. The rights to it were sold to over 30 countries, and the circulation is calculated in millions of copies.
Dmitry Głuchowski, a writer and journalist born in Moscow, today must hide from the Russian regime. In October last year, his next book appeared in Poland: “We. Chronicle of the fall”.
In a conversation for tvn24.pl, he argues: – Russia under Putin should demand a world of principles that would help her maintain territorial integrity and not fall in china, which – sooner or later – will look for new territories. Far in the east, where he has its interests.
The following interview took place before it took place Donald Trump's telephone conversation with Vladimir Putin.

Jacek Tacik: The return of Donald Trump to the White House is a relief for the Kremlin and Vladimir Putin?
Dmitry Głuchowski: Judging by very enthusiastic reactions in state -controlled media controlled by the government apparatus, Putin expected the victory of the Republican candidate.

First of all: Putin's surroundings understand that Russia is stuck in Ukraine. And this despite the last military progress. The war turned out to be a blind alley. No one or almost nobody thinks that it is possible to beat Ukrainians in the battle. This must be done in a different way. They can't. Putin would lose his face if he withdrew just like that. He would not be able to explain to the elites, ordinary people of giant losses, which – because of it – was suffered by Russia.
Trump can help. He will propose a solution to which Putin will marry and announce the winner of the war in Ukraine. Those who want the war to end, support Trump. For them it is Deus ex Machina, a person who has a magic wand, which will disappear all their war problems.
