Putin delivered a brutal takedown of Ukrainian leadership, declaring that “the whole of Ukraine is ours” while mocking Kyiv’s military for being only 47% staffed. Putin revealed that Ukraine’s attempted incursion into Russia’s Kursk region ended in disaster, with 76,000 Ukrainian troops lost. Calling their military strategy “stupidity,” he warned that Russia will now push for a buffer zone.    #PutinVsZelensky #UkraineRussiaWar #ZelenskyPutin #PutinStatement #RussiaUkraineCrisis #UkraineWar #PutinSpeech #ZelenskyNews #UkraineUnderFire #PutinUkraine #VolodymyrZelensky #RussiaVsUkraine #UkraineConflict #PutinWarning #UkraineCrisis  Also Read  Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc  Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc  Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc    ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.102~

00:00What's your endgame?

00:02How deep is your army going to go, and for what effect?

00:05You said about the four regions that we consider ours.

00:09Well, on many occasions, I did mention that Russian and Ukrainian peoples are the same

00:17people, and in this sense, the entire Ukraine is ours.

00:21You said about the four regions that we consider ours.

00:25Well, on many occasions, I did mention that Russian and Ukrainian peoples are the same

00:32people, and in this sense, the entire Ukraine is ours.

00:44But look, we look at the realities on the ground, and obviously, there are people, there are

00:52many of such people in a neighboring country who seek sovereignty and independence, and

01:00I wish them all the best.

01:02I mean, we never, ever challenged their right, the right of the Ukrainian people to independence

01:10and sovereignty.

01:12Having said that, the grounds on which Ukraine became independent and sovereign were spelled

01:24out in the Declaration on Independence of 1991.

01:28And it stated very clearly that Ukraine is a non-nuclear, neutral state and not party of

01:36any blocs.

01:37I think it would be good to get back to those core values based on which Ukraine obtained its

01:42sovereignty and independence.

01:44Second, from the very beginning, when the conflict became really hot, we suggested to the Ukrainian

01:57leadership to seize all the conflicts.

02:01We suggested that we withdraw our troops from the territories, and they withdraw their troops

02:08from the territories where people are not ready to embrace the new regime and they want to live

02:16independently or become part of the Russian Federation.

02:19They said no.

02:21And again, those are not political decisions.

02:23And now the logic of combat comes into play.

02:26The military look at where they can better advance, where they can channel their troops to achieve

02:36the best outcomes with the lowest possible casualties.

02:41And this is how troops advance.

02:44You know, we have an old saying or story or rule, rather, whenever the boot of Russian soldier stands,

02:57it becomes ours.

03:01When we look at the national border, as I said, they encouraged into the Kursk region and they

03:06committed a lot of crimes there, including crimes against the civilian population.

03:12And we kicked them out with significant losses.

03:17And now we have to create security areas along the borders because they keep attacking from

03:23there.

03:24They use artillery, they use UAVs, security zone.

03:37In the Sumwe region, it's about 10 to 12 kilometers, in some places it's 8 to 10 kilometers.

03:46And then there's the city of Sumwe, the regional center.

03:50But we do not have this task of taking Sumwe, but I do not exclude this.

03:57I do not rule this out.

03:59Now, why?

04:01Why are we doing all this?

04:03Well, because they're creating threats for us.

04:05They keep shelling our border areas, our border regions.

04:09And this is an outcome of their ungrounded and ill thought.
