Kremlin on prospects for complete destruction of Ukrainian army: the goal is to neutralize military potential of kiev #Russia#RussiaUkraineConflict#Ukraine
Kremlin: It's impossible to shut Russia off behind an iron curtain. Putin had made clear what he needs from Ukraine-neutral status and refusal to deploy offensive weapons. Russia's operation in Ukraine must achieve its goals. #Russia#RussiaUkraineConflict#Ukraine
Kremlin: Nobody is talking about occupation of Ukraine and that word is unacceptable. We created enough safety cushions to survive market volatility. All necessary measures taken to ensure emotional market reaction as brief as possible. #Russia#RussiaUkraineConflict#Ukraine
Kremlin: Russian operation in Ukraine is designed to pursue the two aims Putin set out-the demilitarisation and 'denazification' of Ukraine. Putin will decide how long Russia's military operation in Ukraine lasts based on its progress and on aims. #Russia#RussiaUkraineConflict
