Russian President Vladimir Putin has no plans to hold his traditional press conference before Christmas. This will be the first time since 2012, when he returned to the Presidency.
There is no reason. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Putin would “try to find an opportunity” to make a statement, but was unlikely to speak to journalists. Peskov did not say why the press conference was not held this year.
Moscow’s announcement came after Russia suffered a series of defeats in its war against Ukraine. The conflict began on February 24, but in recent months Kiev has recaptured territories previously occupied by the Russian army.
The risk of nuclear war is increasing. Putin said last week that the risk of nuclear war has increased.
Russia “did not go mad.” But the Russian president claimed that Moscow “is not crazy” and considers its own nuclear arsenal purely defensive.
According to Putin, he will defend his country, territory and allies “with all available means”.
