Putin: “Because of the West, we risk nuclear conflict and the annihilation of civilization”

All of Russia supports the Russian soldiers engaged in the military operation in Ukraine. At least that's what Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin says, who began his speech to the nation in front of the assembled Parliament. Adding: “United, we can overcome anything. We will not allow anyone to interfere in our internal affairs. We understood that the West is trying to drag Russia into the arms race and weaken it from within. While the United States is trying to inflict a strategic defeat on our country. » And so the threats: “We too have weapons capable of reaching your territories. They tried to fight Russia in the past, but the consequences now will be very serious. Everything the West designs actually leads to the threat of conflict with nuclear weapons and thus to the annihilation of civilization. » Despite this, it would be “absurd” to say that Moscow wants to attack Europe. Additionally, accusations that Russia is “attempting to plant weapons in space” are “baseless.”

Hypersonic missiles

The Russian president explained that in the conflict in Ukraine, Russian forces used two types of hypersonic missiles: the Kinzhal, launched from an aircraft “to hit important targets”, and the Zirkon, launched from a ship. Also speaking about the availability of strategic nuclear forces. And from the army: “Our soldiers took the initiative in Ukraine to liberate new territories. They have gained colossal combat experience. » Putin also promised: “We will do everything to end the conflict and achieve the goals of the special military operation.”
