The famous illusionist says he has the power to stop Vladimir Putin from invading Ukraine: I wait for the invitation for engagement (photos)

The well-known prestigeist claims that he has the ability to prevent the war between Russia and NATO, as according to him he has helped to reduce similar geo-political tensions in the past.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and President Emannuel Macron appear to be failing to persuade Putin to withdraw his troops from the border with Ukraine.

But it is already Uri who claims to intervene there when the heads of politics are failing.

The Israeli-born mystic says he would intervene if asked by US or Ukrainian authorities.

“I do not go to do things with my head, if I receive an official invitation then I judge and then do what I feel is the right move,” he says.

The illusionist says: “I do not want to sound like I am bragging but in Ukraine I am known, I have made some TV series there.”

“But in fact it will depend on the negotiations, it also has to do with my distance viewing skills, I’m sure I would help.”

The psychic illusionist – who is known for his ability to bend spoons and knives only “with the power of the mind” – does not reveal the details of how he could help concretely, saying “this is confidential”.

Uri says he has previously helped Boris Johnson win the 2019 election by forgiving a spoon previously owned by former Prime Minister Golda Meir.

Uri also claims that with his telepathic powers he helped the CIA in the negotiations with the USSR during the Cold War, although the claims are not accepted by Washington.

“I use my powers and abilities only when asked by official groups,” he says.

“For example, when the Americans wanted the Russians to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, they informed me and I went to Geneva with them.”

“Of course I can not get all the credit but there is no doubt in my mind that I helped him pass.”

Comments on the latest situation come amid heightened media rhetoric about the conflict in eastern Ukraine and the accumulation of military force on both sides of the border.

Britain reports that it has deployed about 1,000 troops on alert and has offered to send fighter jets to Ukraine.
