War in Ukraine, Putin: “Eventually a deal will have to be reached, we are ready”

Vladimir Putin returns to talk about a possible negotiation to end the war in Ukraine. “At the end an agreement will have to be reached🇧🇷 I have already said several times that we are ready for these agreements, we are open, but it makes us wonder who we are dealing with,” said the Russian president speaking about the ongoing conflict, which has entered its ninth month.

The leader of Moscow admitted that “logistical problems persist” in the military operation in Ukraine that are “far from being resolved”. Putin added that, in any case, “the most acute problems” have been resolved. According to Guardian reports, at today’s press conference, the Russian referred in particular to supplying equipment and clothing to the 300,000 men recruited to fight in Ukraine in recent months, acknowledging the difficulties and adding that some of those problems are now receding. Putin therefore warned that any country that attacks Russia with nuclear weapons will be “clean face of the earth”.

Putin: “The potential for conflict in the world increases because of the West”

Earlier, the Kremlin chief had accused NATO of wanting to maintain its dominance by any means, even destroying the architecture of strategic stability that had been created for decades. “The nature and scale of modern threats place increasing demands on our interaction across departments of defense.” “The potential for conflict in the world is increasing, and this is a direct consequence of attempts by some Western elites to maintain their political dominance, economic, financial, military and ideological by any means. They knowingly multiply chaos and aggravate the international situation,” Putin said.

“Ukrainian people are cannon fodder for the West”

The Russian leader then added: “We see the grave consequences of such actions in Ukraine today. For several years, the West has shamelessly appropriated and exploited its resources, encouraged genocide and terror in Donbass, effectively turned this country into a colony and now cynically uses the Ukrainian people as slaughter meatas a battering ram against Russia, continuing to supply Ukraine with weapons and ammunition, sending mercenaries, is pushing it on a suicidal path,” the Kremlin leader said.
