(ANSA) – ROME, FEBRUARY 26 – “As a writer I feel entitled to say what I think, unlike Israeli diplomacy which has been trying to say something for a week, but does not do it clearly. I think that knowledge is enough. minimum of the history of the last century to recognize this lethal mix of wickedness and delusions of grandeur that Vladimir Putin has.

“I was in Russia two years ago and I didn’t like being there at all. You feel the dictatorship in the air, the atmosphere of fear, of suspicion among people. As soon as I arrived I wanted to leave because I don’t like being in places like that. All the power in one man, in a man of this kind is a bad thing “Nevo points out. (HANDLE).
