The president of Russia, Vladimir Putina message aimed at justifying Russian intervention before internal and international public opinion, launched this Friday. In a dissertation broadcast on television in the St. Petersburg International Economic ForumPutin launched a direct harangue to justify the war: “All Ukraine is ours.” “I consider that Russian and Ukrainian peoples are the same town. In that sense, all Ukraine is ours, “said Putin. He reminded the moderator of the act that in Russia there is” not a saying or a parable, but an ancient rule: where he steps on the boot of a Russian soldier is ours. ” I say it without any irony and without jokes. There is great conflict potential that is growing (…), the conflict we suffer in Ukraine, which is happening in the Middle East and, of course, we are very concerned about what happens around Iran’s nuclear facilities, “he said during the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. Putin’s message arrives at the delicate moment and with the clear intention of causing international concern to improve the Russian position in the open war with Ukraine.
Conquest of Sumi
In turn, he said he does not rule out also conquering the Ukrainian region of Sumi (North), where the Russian army has already created a security strip of 10-12 kilometers wide, according to the head of the Kremlin. “The following is Sumi. The regional capital (…) We have no such goal: to conquer Sumi. But, in principle, I don’t rule it out,” he said. Putin stressed that on several occasions during the war proposed to kyiv end military actions, since the Russian conditions at the negotiating table will be increasingly demanding.
Search for solutions
The war between Israel and Iran has joined the War of Ukraine. The Israeli attack with the objective of overthrowing the regime and neutralizing any possibility of nuclear weapons development has fueled international instability. For Putin, all these conflicts “demand not only our attention (…), but also the search for solutions, decisions, preferably by peaceful means. I say it with absolute sincerity,” he said. Regarding Iran, he said that Moscow fulfills all its commitments to the Persian nation, but ruled out a Russian involvement in the war on the Tehran side.
Brake on a Russian intervention in Israel-Iran war
“We always fulfill our commitments and the same goes for Russian-Iranian relations. We support Iran in the struggle for their legitimate interests, including its struggle for a peaceful nuclear program,” he said. But at the same time, he lashed out at those who believe that Russia must have “made more.” “What else do? Start any kind of military operationsor what? “He asked and added that the Kremlin” has its own military operations against those who consider enemies of the ideas we defend and against those who generate threats against Russia. “
