In a speech at the Valdai Club, the Russian president said Moscow’s mission was to “build a new world.” This was reported by Tass. “We did not start the so-called war in Ukraine,” the Moscow leader added. “We successfully tested the Burevestnik missile,” the Russian president later confirmed.
Putin also added that the tests for the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile have been completed, but the bureaucratic procedures still need to be completed. According to the Russian president, the Sarmat “will soon be in combat use.”
“A clearly brutal Russian crime: a rocket attack on an ordinary grocery store, a completely premeditated terrorist attack. Kupyansk district, Kharkiv region. Currently 51 people have been killed. Condolences to everyone who lost their loved ones! Help will be provided to the injured…” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said this in Telegram. A child was also among the victims.
“Russia is trying to freeze the situation. If it succeeds, there will be a new critical moment: 2028. If Russia is allowed to adapt now, by 2028 it will have restored the military potential we destroyed and will be strong enough to attack countries at the center of its expansion. In addition to Ukraine, these are certainly the Baltic states and other countries where Russian contingents are present. Our intelligence is clear. It learns from its mistakes and prepares to move forward. This is what Zelenskyy himself spoke at the CPE summit in Granada.
