On Wednesday in a statement, President Putin emphasized the following key points:
– Russia is committed to defending its territories and has no intention of negotiating away its land.
– He rejected any notion of a ceasefire, arguing that such an agreement would only allow NATO to replenish its military resources.
– Putin asserted that Western countries now recognize that defeating Russia is not a feasible outcome.
– He called for any peace agreement to be enduring and inclusive of the security interests of all nations involved.
