“We do not see any signs that Ukraine is ready for peace or territorial concessions so far.”
According to **Modern.az**, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated this during a live broadcast on the year's results.
“However, Russia is aware of certain signals from Kyiv regarding readiness for dialogue,” Putin added.
He stated that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have suffered significant losses in their strategic reserves: “This should prompt the Ukrainian authorities to resolve the conflict peacefully.”
Putin said that the strategic initiative has completely passed into the hands of the Russian Armed Forces after the Ukrainian army was driven out of the Kursk region: “The enemy is retreating in all directions.”
“Krasny Liman will be taken in the very near future; 50% of the city is under Russian control.
The road from liberated Seversk to Sloviansk is opening.
Undoubtedly, the Russian Armed Forces will also capture Konstantinovka," Putin added.
According to him, the city of Dimitrov is completely encircled. Fighting continues in the city of Huliaipole; 50% of the city is under Russian control.
“Security zones are being created in the Sumy direction and Kharkiv region. The Russian Armed Forces have been tasked with destroying the Ukrainian Armed Forces group on the left bank of the Oskol River and capturing Kupyansk-Uzlovaya.
Near Kupyansk, 3500 Ukrainian soldiers have almost no chance.”
Putin also commented on the video released by Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky from the entrance to Kupyansk.
“I do not watch the speeches of the Ukrainian president, supposedly being on the front line. Zelensky is a talented artist, there is no irony here.
The place where he stood is located 1 km from Kupyansk. Why stand at the doorway? Then go inside,” Putin said ironically.
