It Was Impossible to Continue to Endure Genocide: Putin

The goal of the Russian special operation is to assist people in Donbass, stated Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to РИА Новости. He noted that Moscow was compelled to take action because Kyiv publicly rejected the Minsk agreements.

“It was impossible to continue to endure genocide,” Putin remarked. At the same time, the head of state expressed confidence that the objectives and tasks of the operation in Ukraine would be realized.

Commenting on the current geopolitical situation, the Russian president mentioned that Russia does not intend to isolate itself and it is impossible to isolate it.
