🎙 President of Russia Vladimir Putin spoke at an expanded meeting of the Board of the Defence Ministry, which was held at the National Defence Control Centre.

Key talking points:

🔹 The goal of our strategic adversaries is to weaken and divide our nation. This has been the case for centuries, and there is nothing new in this now.

🔹 The military potential and capabilities of almost all major NATO countries are being widely used against Russia

🔹 We will continue maintaining and improving the combat readiness of the nuclear triad. It is the main guarantee that our sovereignty and territorial integrity, strategic parity and the general balance of forces in the world are preserved.

🎙 Excerpts from Russia's Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu's report:

🔹 Today in Ukraine, Russia is fighting against the collective forces of the West. The United States and its allies have been sending weapons to Ukraine, training Kiev’s military personnel, providing them with intelligence, sending advisers and mercenaries, and waging an information and sanctions war on Russia.

🔹 The current situation primarily benefits the 🇺🇸 United States, which seeks to take advantage of it to maintain global dominance and weaken other countries, including its allies in Europe.

🔹 The United States and its allies are spending considerable funds on exerting information and psychological influence on Russia and our allies.

🔹 The Ministry of Defence develops relations with the armed forces of 109 countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America. This year, we have held 350 significant international events.
