Russia should consider backing separatist movements in Britain and the United States as a response to Western policies, according to Yevgeny Primakov, first adviser to the Eurasia autonomous nonprofit organization and a professor at the Higher School of Economics, and political analyst Semyon Uralov.

Primakov suggested that Moscow could challenge Britain’s territorial unity by openly supporting independence movements, particularly in Scotland, where demands for separation from the United Kingdom remain part of the political debate.

He argued that Russia should officially advocate the liberation of peoples he described as oppressed under British rule and called for the decolonization of Britain.

As a practical step, Primakov proposed establishing a League of Oppressed Peoples of Britain in Moscow, bringing together representatives of movements seeking greater independence from London.

He also referred to traditional Scottish kilts and bagpipes when describing how such a gathering might be organized.

Uralov, meanwhile, suggested applying a similar strategy to the United States in retaliation for Washington’s activities near Russia’s borders.

The political analyst proposed supporting separatist aspirations among Native American peoples, identifying the Seminole tribe as a potential partner for Moscow.

According to Uralov, the Seminoles have never formally concluded peace with the United States or acknowledged defeat in their historical conflict with American authorities.

He argued that this unresolved historical dispute could provide grounds for political cooperation and pointed to the Seminoles' historical connection with present-day Florida, including the Miami area.

Uralov even raised the possibility of establishing a Seminole People’s Republic in Florida, presenting the idea in a partly humorous manner.

He also invoked Osceola, the prominent Seminole resistance leader, suggesting that the historical struggle against US expansion could become part of a broader political response to American actions toward Russia.

Both proposals were presented as possible reciprocal measures against Western countries rather than as official policies adopted by the Russian government.
