The clip pokes fun at the Western tradition of blaming Russia\u2019s president for everything from energy bills to migration<\/strong><\/p>\n

RT has released a new holiday video, with a touch of AI, spoofing Europe’s tendency to blame Russian President Vladimir Putin for virtually every problem, from power bills to migration.<\/p>\n

The clip was released on Tuesday and shared on X by RT Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan, who wrote: “Tis the season… to blame Putin for all of Europe’s woes. Sing with me.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Set in a cozy, Christmas-decorated living room, the video opens with the caption ‘Christmas Eve 2025 \/ Somewhere in Europe’ and follows a European family as a series of gloomy moments intrude on the festivities – all accompanied by a children’s choir singing the chorus: “It’s all because of Putin.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The choir runs through a list of holiday-season woes, singing: “Power bills too high to pay? \/ It’s all because of Putin, hey!”<\/em><\/p>\n

The clip becomes more absurd as the choir sings: “Migrants settled by your Christmas tree?”<\/em> we see armed militants from war-torn countries by the family fireplace singing along: “It’s all because of Putin, see!”<\/em>

“Your taxes fund the war instead? It’s all because what Putin said!”<\/em> one line goes, as the scene shows a Ukrainian soldier amid the Christmas setting, taking away the family’s valuables.<\/p>\n

One segment shows an AI-generated version of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. As the choir sings “Bureaucrats are on your back?”<\/em> the von der Leyen lookalike delivers the punchline: “It’s all because of Putin – whack!”<\/em><\/p>\n

Another scene shows Santa taking children’s presents, as the choir sings: “Santa robbed your kids this year?”<\/em> We see Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky wearing a Santa outfit, with a Ukrainian seal on the hat, who sings in a Zelensky-like raspy voice: “It’s all because of Putin, dear!”<\/em><\/p>\n

Toward the end, the video shifts into a montage of TV-style segments featuring British journalist Piers Morgan and CNN’s Anderson Cooper, alongside footage framed as Euronews, repeating the chorus – before cutting back to the family’s ruined Christmas scene.<\/p>\n

The video closes with an address to viewers: ‘Dear Europeans, save your blind faith for Santa!’<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
