1. Ah, yes, harkens back to when Putin indicated that he had no plans to invade Russia. Believe nothing Putin says, without direct correlating proof and even then be wary of the words that spew from his mouth.

2. An admission of failure then.

3. You don’t sacrifice over 20,000 of your own soldiers for a “punitive strike”. That’s what cruise missiles are for.

   Dude thinks we’re buying this excuse for utter stupidity and failure?

4. 2022: “These are just exercise’s, we have no intention to invade Ukraine”

5. That shitstain should not talk about legitimate anything. He should start pulling his horde back.

   He obviously wants a pause.

6. Oh do fuck off. putin said this at the start of the invasion and annexed four territories.

   At this point Ukraine should agree to only use their weapons in Ukrainian territory and then annex all of russia.

7. “Now that we failed, we did not intend to do it anyway.”

8. >“For Russia, the question of Zelenskyy legitimacy matters; fateful documents should be signed with legitimate authorities,” Putin said.

   Is it easier to ignore them in the future if they are signed with legitimate authorities? Just like they ignored the treaties they had with Ukraine before 2014.

9. Ah, another goodwill gesture?

10. Step 1. Invade a country to take it over.

    Step 2. Complain about being fired at.

    Step 3. Use it as an excuse to bomb them even more.

    Step 4. …

    Step 5. Profit?

11. “Look at what you make me do”

12. Ah yes, just like how Stalin’s true secret master plan, not revealed until after the Winter War, had been to take only that precise section of Karelia that the Soviets were able to seize.

    Anyway I love how Putin is speedrunning the Narcissist’s Prayer. Maybe he feels he’s running out of time..?

13. Don’t shell our territories or we will sacrifice another 20k. You were warned!

14. Can we just ban this guy from all media? I don’t want to listen to any of his bullshit.

15. “I have said publicly that if the shelling of Belgorod continues, we will be forced to create a sanitary zone,” Putin said.

    Maybe start with cleaning up all the dead bodies of the Russian soldiers killed trying to create this “sanitary zone”.

16. Let us shell without retaliating. This shooting back thing is strictly prohibited in an SMO.

17. Fails to take Kharkiv. “We didn’t plan on it anyway”.
    Mmhmm.

18. Will Ukraine now exploit the weakened forces in the area and invade across the Russian border?

19. They already failt? Thought they where just started…. Russians are realy fast in losing things.

20. Pretty much admitting their offensive failed and just trying to save face

21. If Russia denies something, you know the opposite is true.

22. Projection and lies

23. Can we point and laugh at Russia yet?

    Joke of a super power.

24. Ukraine shouldn’t have worn such revealing clothing. Then we wouldn’t have been forced to rape them. — Russian propgandist

25. Curious admission of not wanting the whole country, just the four oblasts already annexed. Which is totally unacceptable for interest groups that he would take a conciliatory stance. They are obviously getting creamed and the losses are hopefully getting to the unsustainable point. But, his idea of peace is the annexation stands.

26. After two years of this thug shelling Ukrainian territories?? – hmmmmmm
