Vladimir Putin: “Russia's interference in the election is merely a symptom of the larger hybrid war against the West”

Understanding that he is entering a difficult situation, he nevertheless does not stop his efforts to help bring about a settlement and to make his contribution to resolving the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.

This vote is for you. People believe in you, believe in our victory, believe in your courage, in your heroism.

Such a high, even record, number of people who came out and voted shows that the people of Russia support our efforts aimed at strengthening the country.

At the heart of this escalation lie arrogance and overconfidence. This is a path to the brink of the abyss.
