Simply final month, on March 2, 2024, Putin warned the West throughout his annual “The State of Russia” speech.

Clearly, the Biden Administration ignored this warning.

Putin famous that whereas accusing Russia of plans to assault NATO allies in Europe, Western allies had been “deciding on targets for hanging our territory” and “speaking about the opportunity of sending a NATO contingent to Ukraine.”

“We bear in mind the destiny of those that despatched their troop contingents to the territory of our nation,” the Russian chief stated in an obvious allusion to the failed invasions by Napoleon and Hitler. “Now the results for the potential invaders will likely be way more tragic.”

“There’s no consensus at this time to ship in an official, endorsed method troops on the bottom. However when it comes to dynamics, nothing will be dominated out,” Macron stated in a information convention on the Elysee presidential palace.
