During a Forum in Sochi, on Thursday (02), Vladimir Putin promised to respond to the growing militarization of Europe, classifying as “absurd” western fears that Russia plans an attack on NATO.
The Russian President also countered the criticism of Donald Trump, who had called Russia “tiger of paper, large but fragile,” and said that if it were a royal power, he would have already won the war against Ukraine.
Embies between both presidents have been taking place after the summit held in Alaska in July 2025, about attempts at an agreement to end the war. However, according to Trump, Putin’s lack of action did with what the relationship was most acidic.
In addition, according to Putin, the Russian army would be facing the whole NATO and warned of the risk of a “dangerous climb” if the US sends long -range missiles to Kiev.
The Russian President also mocked the accusations of driving to European countries, promising not to “send it anymore.” Meanwhile, 45 European leaders gathered in Copenhagen, Denmark, for a summit aimed at strengthening support for Ukraine and accelerating defense projects. The meeting takes place after weeks of reports on drone and russian raids in various European countries.
