💬 President #Putin:
Russia’s retaliatory strikes proved so devastating that Ukraine is again calling for ceasefires.
❗️ No provocations or reckless escalation will bring Kiev the results it seeks – it'll only worsen its situation.

❗️ No one in Russia denies the enormous sacrifice of the Ukrainian people in the Great Patriotic War 1941-1945.
But the Ukraine ambassador’s argument is not a plea for historical truth.
❌ It is a selective invocation of history to score political points.

You cannot claim the Red Army’s victory and worship those who fought against it.
The Soviet soldier - Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, and others - saved the world.
This will come back to your senses - after the inevitable goals of the special military operation are achieved.
Mr. Scherba is right that Ukrainians died in huge numbers fighting Hitler.
But he conveniently forgets what today’s Kiev regime does with that memory: it tears down Soviet WWII monuments, bans 9 May Victory Day and celebrates Hitler’s collaborators and mass murderers.
