When will the Russian invasion of Ukraine end? .. The Kremlin answers
The Kremlin stressed that only Russian President Vladimir Putin can answer the question of when the Russian war on Ukraine will end.
"It is President Putin who determines the duration of the special operation in Ukraine, depending on its effectiveness and feasibility," Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
Peskov noted that "the goal of the Russian military operation is to prevent the militarization of Ukraine, because this poses a threat to the Russian people," explaining: "This means neutralizing the military capabilities that have grown significantly recently thanks to the active participation of foreign countries."
On the possibility of negotiations between Putin and Ukrainian President Zelensky, he said: "Why not, if Ukraine is ready to talk about Moscow's security concerns."
"This question is about the choice of the Ukrainian people," Peskov said of the possibility of regime change in Ukraine.
On Thursday morning, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the start of a special military operation in Donbass, stressing that the confrontation between Russia and nationalist forces in Ukraine was inevitable.
Putin stressed that Russia, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, is now one of the most powerful countries in the world, and no one should doubt that any aggression against it will result in the defeat of the aggressor.
