Putin tells Russia his war objectives in Ukraine are unchanged – BBC News
Russian President Vladimir Putin has told Russians that peace with Ukraine will only take place “when we achieve our objectives”.
He is holding his first major news conference since he launched his first full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
Mr Putin has combined his annual “direct line” phone-in with Russians with an audience of journalists.
The annual event did not take place last year.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Why should the Russians stop trying to occupy Ukraine if they are right now showing off their beautiful new fur coats for the New Year? Neighboring countries help smuggle all necessary goods into Russia. Russian women were not harmed, and were even able to obtain new fertile lands of Ukraine and the Black Sea coast of Ukraine.

Putin is God's gift to mankind, Putin must be protected world 🌎 over at all costs.World is more safer with Putin around that's why people love Putin.
Putin is a Hero, a great Man/dignified President, fighting the evils of the USA/EU NATO imperialism. The world is much safer with Putin around.
Some USA/EU scams demonize Putin because Putin refuses to bend down to their evil values/rules of USA/EU scams.The world is safer with Putin around.
Over 48 coalition countries from USA/EU/NATO military 🎖️🪖 generals have failed to beat the Russians on the battle field in Ukraine. Uraaa
USA/NATO under estimated RUSSIA ; NATO thought Russia would be a walk over..USA/NATO military 🪖 generals have failed against Russian forces. Uraa.
Ukraine backed by military 🪖 generals from over 40 USA/NATO countries have failed to beat the intelligent Russian generals military strategies. Uraa.
USA/NATO military 🪖 generals war plans/ strategies have failed against Russian forces. NATO Special Forces in Ukraine are nowhere to be seen.
NATO is not a defensive pact? NATO is modern form of elite countries state sponsored thieves/terrorists/pirates who use UN/ICC/IMF etc to hide truth.
Putin will go down in history as Putin the great, defender of the free world, conqueror of western imperialism..protector of mankind. Truth is Truth.
Its clear majority people of the free world, have said a big YES to Putin as a good leader they need and a big NO to USA/NATO. shame to USA/EU scams
USA Biden has built a coalition of 50 nations to support USA Ukraine proxy war, all against one Russia, and yet Russia is crushing Ukraine at will.
EU scams mostly NATO members colonalized Africa. Had it not been for Russia (USSR) helping Africa? Africa would still be under colonialism?
USA/NATO challenged Russia to a fight through the Ukraine proxy war; Now it's clear Russia 🪆 has won, and USA/NATO/Ukraine are all beaten handsdown.
Ukraine backed by USA, EU and NATO countries almost over 47 European nations all against one Russia and yet still Russia is crushing Ukraine.
UN is useless now it's just a Scam.USA/EU scams preach"one man, one vote as democracy." But sadly democracy fails at UN every time. It doesn't work.
USA/EU scams preach "one man, one vote, democracy must prevail." sadly democracy fails at UN every time.How can it work anywhere? Scams

These words are true and worthy, he who has ears to hear let him hear, blessed is he who understands.)
“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”
Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 3.
“And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.”
Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 8 to 11.
“All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”
Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 8 to 10.
“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.”
Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 25 to 28.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”
Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 16 to 18.
“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

Hitler was also initially elected democratically.
However, after becoming chancellor, with the overwhelming support of his people, he passed a series of laws that concentrated power in his hands, and in a short time he became a dictator and a despotic emperor. Today's Putin is just like the Hitler of old.
