No one will be able to force a strategic defeat on Moscow in Ukraine, the Russian president has said.
Russia is practically fighting against the entirety of the collective West in the Ukraine conflict, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a meeting with service members in the Kremlin on Friday.
The meeting coincided with Russia Day, which commemorates the country’s declaration of sovereignty on June 12, 1990 and the beginning of its post-Soviet statehood.
“Russia is standing against the so-called Collective West single-handedly,” Putin said, noting that the Ukraine conflict has become “exceedingly high-tech.”
The NATO nations are all, without exception, ramping up efforts to do all they can to orchestrate actions against Russia, he added.
Moscow did not initiate the Ukraine conflict, Putin stressed.
“It was they who carried out the coup d’etat in Ukraine, which forced us to take the people of Crimea under protection. When they started the war, they started bombing Donetsk using warplanes.”
The entirety of Europe had previously united against Russia, both during Napoleon’s invasion and under Hitler during World War II, he said.
Now, Western nations have set out to “inflict a strategic defeat on Russia,” but “this is not something that can be done,” Putin said.
“The enemy is expanding the use of [kamikaze] drones… trying to strike at our morale, trying to break up Russian society… and cause economic damage,” he noted, stressing that “they will not succeed.”
Russia is working to improve and strengthen its air defense systems in response, and will retaliate against Ukrainian drone attacks with strikes against its infrastructure, in order to “discourage them from attacking civilian targets,” the Russian president said.
Kiev’s forces have increased kamikaze drone strikes against Russian border regions, logistics, and oil and gas facilities in recent months, killing dozens of civilians. At least four civilians were killed and 20 others wounded by Ukrainian strikes on Russia’s Bryansk and Belgorod regions on Thursday, according to local authorities.
Oh for Gods sake, just take out the Kiev regime and turn the place into a rump state…..its the only real option you have……
The Cold War never ended, the East wasn’t strong enough to defeat the West so the Bolsheviks just swapped sides and are now engaged in unifying the East with the West instead of the other way around.
I do not from moment, believe Russia is fighting solo. They are supported buya number of countries rich in oil and production of the latest drone technology. China is the undisputed powerhouse of the world.
Somehow, along the way, the United States of America has lost its way. Political corruption and their moral compass is not longer pointing north.
I am not saying other nations are perfect. I am merely saying the corporation model isn’t working for the people. The same goes for New Zealand and the rest of the western world. It doesn’t matter whether money as siphoned off for indigenous people, nut case net zero ideology or just models of handing out cash for crap we just don’t need. It all has to go.
The Holy Roman Empire shall not pass.
The West deserves to be burnt down by Russia, please start with London.
The ‘City of London’ a sovereign state within greater London Great Britain, and associated Chatham House / Tavistock Institution supporting Hitler and communist Bolshevics of the pasy, and now ‘NAZI glorifying’ Zelenskyy.
Meanwhile. UK and Irish people are sick to death of defending themselves from boat people. Ireland and Northern Ireland who normally can’t agree on the colour green have combined and resorted to buring the boat people out of their free accommodation.
This is a true example of just how much power citizens in thier true righteousness have over corrupt government and its police force. People know when politicians are taking the piss.
When the smoke settles, and it truly is smoke, I bet the overstaying visitors along with political leaders will depart from that region in great haste.
If i were one of those corrupt politicians, I would be making plans to go abroad. Eg. Jacinda Ardern lives in Australia. In his day, Hitler went to Argentina.
Incumbent Australian politicians are facing defeat in a landslide support to someone who looks like she will be the next prime minister.
