Kremlin Comments on Putin's Words That Russia Has Not Yet Seriously Started

During a meeting with the heads of Duma factions, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that "in a broad sense, Russia has not yet seriously started anything." He emphasized that the potential is incomparable and that Russia has such significant capabilities that only a small part of it is currently involved in the military operation in Ukraine.

This was reported by Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of the Russian president. According to him, the information was relayed by RIA Novosti.

“The head of state simply commented on the statements coming from Western countries and Kyiv, which claim that Kyiv will achieve victory on the battlefield. Putin merely reminded that the potentials are entirely incomparable and that Russia's capabilities are so vast in this regard that currently, only a small part is involved in the special military operation. Therefore, the statements from the West are literally absurd, they are ridiculous and only add to the suffering of the Ukrainian people, which President Putin also mentioned yesterday,” Peskov said.
