When meeting with “war correspondents” in Moscow, when asked how far Russia is ready to go – to the borders of the “new territories” or how much will be gathered, Putin answered that it can only be said face to face, but “in general, everything will depend on the potentials that will be created as a result of this so-called counterattack”.
On September 30 last year, Russia annexed four regions of eastern Ukraine – Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk – although it did not fully control any of them at the time, but Kherson was forced to leave altogether.
Putin emphasized that the general goals of the “special operation” have not changed, but are being adjusted according to the situation, and in general – it turns out that Ukraine, incited by NATO, started a war against Russia already in 2014, but now Russia is “trying to stop the war by armed means”.
