Vladimir Putin: “Is that going to be Putin’s legacy? Is that really what he wants?”

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.

If it comes to a direct attack on the Russian Federation – in this case, we are referring to Kaliningrad, and perhaps other territories as well — the question of the Russian Federation deploying all the weapons at our country’s disposal…

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

Can we be certain that these weapons will never be used? Well, of course not. We must bear this in mind and avoid such an outcome.
