Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed a news conference at 3 a.m., indicating a bleak outlook for peace in Ukraine. The intensified military actions on Kyiv reflect his stance.
During the conference, Putin commended U.S. envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, stating they are ‘always welcome’ in Moscow. Despite praising the envoys, Putin accused Ukraine of engaging in ‘state terrorism’ and firmly stated, ‘one does not negotiate with terrorists.’
A recent incident highlighted the increasing tension. Smoke was seen rising from a refinery in Moscow following a drone attack, igniting a fire. This event illustrates the heightened conflicts and ongoing hostilities.
