MOSCOW, December 2. /TASS/. Ukrainian attacks on tankers in the Black Sea are piracy, Russian President Vladimir Putin told reporters. He noted that Russia will consider measures against ships from countries that are helping Kiev with piracy and will expand strikes on Ukrainian ports in response to the attacks.
At the same time, the head of state noted that Russia is currently acting carefully in Ukraine, using a "surgical" approach. However, if Europe continues to live under the illusion that it can inflict a strategic defeat on Russia and decides to wage war, the situation will unfold in a completely different way.
TASS has compiled the main statements made by the Russian leader.
Krasnoarmeysk in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), liberated by the Russian army, was and remains of particular importance to both sides, because it is, among other things, "a large infrastructure facility connected to a whole network of communications with the region": "This city has been and continues to be of great importance."
Krasnoarmeysk is an ideal springboard for solving all the tasks of the special military operation, from here, "it is convenient for the Russian army to advance in any direction the General Staff deems most appropriate."
