❗️Putin explains why Russia was forced to fight in Ukraine
"So in 2008, the doors of NATO were opened for Ukraine. In 2014, there was a coup. They started persecuting those who did not accept the coup. And it was indeed a coup. They created the threat to Crimea, which we had to take under our protection. They launched the war in Donbas in 2014 with the use of aircraft and artillery against civilians. This is when it all started. There's a video of aircraft attacking Donetsk from above. They launched a large scale military operation. Then another one. When they failed, they started to prepare the next one," president said.
“How could we not be concerned about what was happening? It would be criminal carelessness on our part - that's what it would be. The US political leadership brought us to the brink of a line that we could not cross, because doing so would destroy Russia itself.“

❗️Ukrainian netizens melt down over their country's new top general, accuse him of treason and incompetence
Ultranationalists are promoting a conspiracy theory that General Syrskiy, who was born in Soviet Republic of Russia, studied in Moscow, and whose relatives live in Vladimir - a town located 200 km east of Moscow, may be working on behalf of the Kremlin.
At the same time, many netizens are denouncing Syrskiy as a "butcher" who depleted Ukrainian manpower reserves last year by launching wave after wave of "meat assaults" during the battles for Artemovsk and Soledar.

❗️Kremlin comments on Putin’s interview with Tucker Carlson:
🔺Carlson did not coordinate his questions for the interview with Putin in advance: we never collect any questions.
🔺Over the past few days, the Kremlin has received numerous interview requests from major media outlets around the world. All of these requests will be considered for future interviews.
🔺There is no hysteria or panic in the American media following Putin's interview with Carlson, but rather a sense of professional jealousy appears to be present among some individuals.
🔺The Western media and establishment will undoubtedly scrutinize and analyze the Tucker-Putin interview.
🔺After the Tucker Carlson interview, no attempts were made to contact Putin through diplomatic channels.
🔺While Putin's main concern is the reaction of Russians, it is also vital that the interview reach as many people as possible in the West.
