Putin: Our forces are making rapid advances – Mehr News agency RCO News Agency
According to RCO News Agency, quoted by Russia Daily, Russian President Vladimir Putin said: “So far, we have not seen any preparation from Kiev for peace in Ukraine.” We are ready to discuss the resolution of the Ukraine crisis based on the principles identified in June 2024.
The President of Russia said: We want the end of the conflict in Ukraine through peaceful means. Ukraine is currently against a peaceful resolution of the crisis. Our forces are advancing rapidly in Zaporozhye and we are liberating one residential area after another. Our forces dominate more than 50% of the city of Krasnoyarsk and we are advancing on all fronts.
Putin said: “Russian forces are advancing along the front lines in the area of special military operations.” Our forces have encircled around 3,500 Ukrainian soldiers near Kobiansk. Our forces have entered the city of Holyabuli in Ukraine and are rapidly advancing on the axis of Zaprozhia.
He said: “The attempt to recapture the lost positions of the Ukrainian army in Krasnoyarsk is ruled out, because the active and effective operations of the Russian armed forces have caused huge losses to it and it no longer has reserve forces.”
In response to Zelensky’s video, Putin said: I don’t watch Zelensky’s videos. Zelensky was, without irony, a brilliant actor. If Kobiansk was under Ukrainian control, why didn’t he enter the city and film from there? Why did he stop in front of the door? Go inside!
The President of Russia said: The EU’s attempt to seize Russian assets is theft.
He stated: We will witness the massive successes of the Russian forces before the end of this year. 15 battalions of Ukrainian forces are under siege in Kobyansk region and have no chance. Dmitrov is completely surrounded and I believe that 50% of it is now under control and the enemy has not received the order to surrender their weapons and is trying to retreat in small groups. In the east, we advance into Zaporozhye, liberating one city after another. We have crossed the Goliai-Bule River and the bulk of the groups continue to advance.
He emphasized: The Chief of Staff and local commanders announced the capture of Seversk, which makes it possible to move towards Slavyansk. There is a battle going on in the Krasnomansk front, 50% of which is now under our control.
After driving the enemy out of the Kursk region, the strategic initiative was transferred to the Russian Armed Forces, which means the advance of our forces along the entire length of the contact line along which the enemy is retreating.
Putin clarified: “The Kiev regime refuses to end the crisis peacefully, but we know and we see that there are signs that they are ready to have some talks, but we always say that we are ready to end the crisis peacefully by getting rid of the fundamental roots of the crisis, which is what we offered in June 2024.”
