How convenient...for Putin and others who want to divide Europe to make it easier to claim parts of it.
There’s a KGB strategy from 90s iirc that shows a plan of push to divide the UK from Europe, then the US from Europe, then Germany from Europe, then California from the US. I’ve got it downloaded somewhere
You might be thinking of the 1997 book Foundations of Geopolitics by the Russian ultranationalist and neofascist Aleksandr Dugin.
There have been many reports over the years that it's popular amongst those close to Putin - and there are definitely comparisons to be drawn between the book and actually occurring events.
