The full text of the statement
To my mind, this has been extremely important since the very beginning. And, from one side, what was said by Putin is correct. From the other side, I, for instance, do not like this “if” again. I would like to say, there should be no “ifs”, there should be no “ifs”. These strikes should become a system, these strikes should destroy Ukraine’s civil infrastructure so to make it maximum difficult for Ukrainian troops and foreign hired guns to act, otherwise you would not get a desired result, yes.
