Putin: 'A Completely Different War Will Occur in the Event of Full Confrontation with the West'

Russia is preparing for war based on a well-known ancient principle, but it seeks peace, stated Russian President Vladimir Putin during an interview.

“No one should even allow themselves to think about the possibility of war between nuclear powers,” he said.

According to Putin, a completely different war will occur in the event of full confrontation between Russia and the West: “The U.S. is forcing its allies to worsen their relations with Russia and China. Russia and China do not unite in a military-political alliance, unlike Western countries,” he added.

Addressing the conflict in the Middle East, the Russian president emphasized that it is so extensive that it cannot even be compared to the special operation in Ukraine.
