“Peace will come when we achieve our goals. They do not change. I remind you what we talked about – the de-Nazification and demilitarization of Ukraine, its neutral status,” said the Russian leader in response to a journalist’s question.
The existence of Russia without sovereignty is impossible, and the main thing is to strengthen it,” added Putin, BTA writes.
The Russian president noted that sovereignty is a very broad concept. “Strengthening external sovereignty means strengthening the country’s defense and security along its borders. This is also strengthening public sovereignty. I mean the unconditional guarantee of the rights and freedoms of citizens, the development of our political system, of parliamentarism. And finally it is the guarantee of security in the spheres of economy and technology,” he said.
The Russian president said the Russian economy is stable enough to “move forward” despite economic sanctions, the war in Ukraine and the confrontation with the West, AFP reported.
According to Putin, when asked about the sustainability of the sanctions economy, his country has a “sufficient reserve” thanks to the “strong consolidation of Russian society”, the “stability of the country’s financial and economic system” and Moscow’s “growing military potential”.
Ukraine produces almost no weapons and gets everything “on the fly”, the Russian president said.
“Today, Ukraine produces almost nothing. They try to preserve something, but they produce almost nothing. They import everything, excuse me for the expression, on the front. But this front can always end. And it looks like it is already ending” , Putin said.
Unemployment in Russia has fallen to 2.9 percent – an unprecedented value in the history of the country, and this is a very good indicator of the state of the economy, the Russian leader said.

The Russian president also said he expects GDP to grow by 3.5 percent this year. “It means we’ve caught up and taken a big step forward,” he said.
