A Confident Putin Says There Will Be No Peace In Ukraine Until Russia’s Goals And Conditions Are Met

 

The Guardian: Putin says no peace until Russia’s goals in Ukraine achieved  

In televised year-end address, Russian president calls for Ukraine’s unconditional surrender 

Vladimir Putin has said “there will only be peace in Ukraine when we achieve our aims” as he appeared on television for his year-end press conference for the first time since he launched the invasion, seeking to project confidence in his war machine.

WNU Editor: Russian President Putin definitely looks like someone who sees victory at the end of this long war. A definite contrast from how Ukraine President Zelensky looked like when he was in Washington DC two days ago. 

Sighhh .... 

This war is far from over. A lot can happen in the coming months that can reverse whatever "win" Putin is thinking about.

Not much can happen at this point unless it’s NATO boots on the ground. Nobody wins in that scenario

Of course he's confident. He gets asked screened questions (just like Biden) and no mention on here about how some Russians had some anti-war questions for Putin pop up on the main screens. Of course, the mediators never asked him these questions.
