“If we destroyed five Patriot complexes near Kiev, then why should we destroy any building and structure in the center of Kyiv? There are no such restrictions,” the head of state said.
He explained that the Russian side, unlike the Kyiv regime, does not do such things “for a number of reasons.”
Putin recalled that Ukraine attempted to attack the Kremlin, carried out terrorist attacks on the Belgorod region, but Russia “does not have such a need.”
The President explained that the Kiev regime understands that success on the front line is unlikely for it, and therefore provokes Russia to take tough retaliatory actions, in order to then “poke a finger” and say: “Well, look how evil they are, how cruel they are, and with they can’t be dealt with.”
