French Historian: Russia Is Not Invading Ukraine, It Is Liberating Europe

The English, the Germans, and the Jews need to get over their historic hatred of Russia. Their thirst for revenge has destabilized Europe and spread Ukrainian-backed terrorism around the world. This isn’t the 19th century when imperial adventurism could be contained. You start a fire in Ukraine and it quickly spreads to Brazil and Bangladesh.

Russia can’t be vilified as easily as it was in the past.

Russia is not the enemy of Europe or world Jewry. Russians in the 21st century shouldn’t be punished for what the Tsar did to Jews in the 19th century or what the Communist regime did to the Germans and Eastern Europeans in the 20th.

Russia is not perfect. I don’t fully trust Putin. I think he’s part of the conspiracy to depopulate Ukraine and resettle it with Jews. But Russia didn’t start this war. And it’s not overthrowing regimes half way across the world. It is clearing and protecting its front lawn. What it has done in Ukraine has been tame and completely justified. 

In fact, a stronger, a more moral, and wiser Russia should have already been in Kyiv. Zelensky should not be breathing. The only explanation for why its not in Kyiv is because it wants to ensure that Ukraine won’t be able to raise armies against it in the future. What Putin is pursuing is extermination via war, not just a simple military victory. 

The longer he stalls in taking Ukraine the worse off Russia will be. The West has so far succeeded in turning this conflict into another Iran-Iraq war, where both sides bleed each other to death. 

I don’t know if Putin can’t take Kyiv out of military incompetence, or he’s made promises to his Jewish allies to give them Ukrainian land. But Russia needs to figure it out for the sake of global stability. This open wound has to be closed soon. If Putin can’t do it then a new Russian leader will have to.

Emmanuel Todd (born 16 May 1951) is a French historian, anthropologist, demographer, sociologist and political scientist at the National Institute of Demographic Studies (INED) in Paris. His research focuses on family structures across the world, and explores how they relate to beliefs, ideologies, political systems, and historical developments. He has also authored several political essays, which have received wide coverage in France.

. . .Among other books, Emmanuel Todd wrote The Invention of Europe (1990) and Le destin des immigrés (1994) (The fate of immigrants), in which he defended the “French model” of immigrants integration.

. . .Todd opposed the Maastricht Treaty in the 1992 referendum. In 1995, he authored a memo for the Fondation Saint-Simon, that gained widespread attention; the media subsequently credited him with coining the phrase “fracture sociale” (social crack or social gap), which was notably used by Jacques Chirac during the 1995 presidential campaign to distinguish himself from his rival Édouard Balladur. However, Todd denied originating the term and attributed the expression to Marcel Gauchet.

In The Explanation of Ideology: Family Structure & Social Systems, Todd explores how diverse family structures influence beliefs, ideologies, political systems, and historical development. As anthropologist David Kertzer summarises: “Building on both Le Play and Freud, Todd argues, that ideological systems are products of family concepts with family organization being the true infrastructure, not itself determined by any other social, economic, or cultural forces”. Susan Greenhalgh characterises the book as “deliberatively provocative and at once annoying and impressive” and states that “although the author’s argument needs substantial conceptual and empirical shaping up, the book contains many rewarding insights and deserves to be given serious consideration by anthropologists and political scientists alike.” In Lineages of Modernity: A History of Humanity from the Stone Age to Homo Americanus, reviewed by James C. Bennett, he offers a compelling reinterpretation of modern history—mapping how family systems ripple through religion, politics, economy, and cultural attitudes. Bennett sees it as a vital contribution for rethinking globalization with deeper cultural sensitivity and warns against ignoring these underlying dynamics. And Alan Barnard considers it as a “thoroughly interesting and unusual text” 

. . .In La défaite de l’Occident (The defeat of the West), Todd claims that Putin’s Russia has triumphed over a deindustralised and nihilist West, weakened by the decline of Protestantism. The French press gave the book mixed reviews, with critics accusing Todd of being “blinded by ideology,” “ignorant of the subject,” or relying on Russian propaganda and conspiracy theories. However, the book was reviewed by anthropologist John A. Agnew who writes, in 2024 that “so far this book has met with a largely positive reaction by the pundits on the nationalist right in the United States and Europe, even though in the past, Todd as never openly affiliated himself with such quarters”. The book received praise from journalist Christopher Caldwell in The New York Times, and was well received by official Russian media.
