"She is": Putin called for a meeting with militarycorn to treat Ukraine with respect
He told correspondents that Ukraine would suffer great losses. According to him, the Armed Forces lost a minimum of 160 tanks and 360 armored vehicles. At the same time, the equipment destroyed by Russia is 25-30% of the total volume of combat vehicles transferred to Kyiv by measures. On this the President of the Russian Federation noted that Moscow is gradually and methodically engaged in the demilitarization of Ukraine.
"Whatever Ukraine is, it is, it should be treated with respect, but it is impossible to treat us without respect," Putin said. He is not believed that Ukrainians live on the historical lands of Russia. "People who want to live separately in an independent state in our historical lands should make relationships with us. We had controversy with Lukashenko, but no one thought to start a conflict. In Ukraine, I would not have to enter an armed conflict, " - said the President of the Russian Federation.
Putin noted that Ukraine was a neutral state on the Declaration of Independence, but in 2008 began to violate it with a statement about the desire to join NATO at the Bucharest Summit. On June 13, Focus wrote that Ukraine could force Putin into negotiations. The successful counter -offensive of the Armed Forces can bring the world closer and strengthen Ukraine's position at the table negotiations. This was stated on June 12 by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken.
