Meduza: Putin planning Federal Assembly address for February 21, followed by ‘large-scale concert-rally’ at Luzhniki Stadium on February 22 

Vladimir Putin will give his belated annual address to Russia’s Federal Assembly on or around February 21, and will participate in a large-scale concert and rally event at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium the following day, RBC reported on Friday, citing “three sources familiar with the discussion” of the Kremlin’s plans. According to RBC, the rally is expected to be a “continuation” of Putin’s address. 

A source from Russia’s parliament confirmed to RIA Novosti that a rally event is being planned for February 22, and added that 200,000 people, including Putin, are slated to attend. 

One of RBC’s sources said that Russian authorities want to ensure the address takes place as close as possible to the anniversary of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Update #1: Putin to deliver State of the Nation Address to Federal Assembly on Feb 21 — Kremlin -- TASS  

Update #2: Media from unfriendly countries not invited to Putin’s State of Nation Address — Kremlin -- TASS  

WNU Editor: Putin's State of the Nation address will all be on the Ukraine war, the economy and sanctions, and threats from NATO. But what caught my eye was this report .... Russian parliament to hold extraordinary meetings on Feb 22: RIA (Reuters). 

This tells me that Putin will make a declaration/announcement during the State of the Nation address that parliament will then follow-up on the next day. Needless to say. No one is saying why parliament is being summoned the next day. But there is someone who I trust who told me earlier today that Putin may make a formal declaration of war against Ukraine, and parliament will then follow-up on the next day to make it legal. I hope he is wrong, but we shall know more on February 21.

One the eve of the strategic assault? Bets are strong that Putin launches the new offensive on the anniversary of the invasion. /It's sort of what Russians do.

It’s a justified war against NATO, we have been interfering and toppling governments for generations now. We have have disrupted the natural development and balance of ways of life for too long, and when you look at what we have become ourselves, we have lost any and all leg to stand on to tell others how they should live. Russia will win, because they represent the good in this fight against evil.

Pretty bold to have a 200k person public event with Putin attending. They must trust that anti air battery more than I would.

Putin needs to address the banana peel epidemic in Russia.

He also needs to address the suicide epidemic among financially well off, important business men and government officials.

There is talk of a putin virus spreading among Russia's elite. Once a person catches it they a re dead within 24 hours.

Take a look at all the people who died around the Clintons, or those trying to expose pedophilia in Hollywood and US government. Move along, nothing to see here

The Clintons are evil rotten arseholes. But Putin has them beat hands down when it comes to killing. It was like that in the 30s and 40s. Hitler was a piker compared to Stalin. Stalin killed way more Russians than Hitler did.

30 > 20
