Peskov Explains Why the 'Special Military Operation' Continues

The spokesperson for Russian President Vladimir Putin, Dmitry Peskov, stated today that the 'special military operation' continues because new regions of Russia are not entirely protected from threats.

“Donbas is still not fully protected, therefore, the 'special military operation' continues. We are obliged to protect the people living there. We have not fully achieved this goal; it still needs to be done,” Peskov said, adding that the security of Crimea is reliably ensured.
