Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that all efforts to destabilize the country during the upcoming elections will be thwarted. He emphasized that the Duma elections will be held under difficult conditions and, according to him, “Russia’s enemies” may seize any opportunity to cause disruption.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, Putin also spoke about the continued establishment of a “security zone” along the border with Ukraine, stating that this process is progressing gradually. He said this measure will continue until the threats against the neighboring regions are eliminated.<\/p>\n
The Russian president described the situation in the border areas, especially in the Kursk region, as still difficult. He praised the bravery of Veluboyev, the head of the Belovsky district in the Kursk province, who was injured following a drone attack.<\/p>\n
Putin further stated that Moscow can only achieve the objectives of what he calls the “special military operation” through internal unity. He said the most important issue is for the Russian people to stand together and not allow internal political processes to be influenced by external pressures and threats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
