The war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine: the latest news
As reported, the Kremlin is preparing the Russian population for the continuation of the war. The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, said on the broadcast of a propaganda TV channel that “Russia is acting in the right direction and protects its national interests” and expressed confidence that “99.9% of Russians are ready to do everything for the benefit of the motherland.”
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs assured that Ukraine will have all the necessary weapons – it is only a matter of time.
“My impression is this. If we sum up all the behind-the-scenes conversations and not only in Washington, but also in other countries, the conclusion is this: all the necessary weapons will be available, it’s just a matter of time. Why can’t they be provided immediately? Because there are psychological, logistical and political. But we need to work with all these reasons, and we will work with them,” Kuleba said.
