According to Putin, "the current government in Kyiv has to realise that if they continue to behave like this, they will endanger the future of Ukraines statehood. And if this happens it will be entirely their responsibility."
Details: Putin also said that there are attempts to "sow disarray among the Russian society."
Putin noted that the consequences of NATOs potential conflict with Russia "are clear to everyone."
Russian soldiers fighting this war, according to their president, are "fighting for the future."
Putin also stated that the Western sanctions against Russia "appear similar to a declaration of war, but this has not yet happened."

Yeah but

If they don't fight, they'll cease to exist as anything they recognize so you're not offering an alternative, Vlad

Didn't he say he'd rather nothing exist than lose this war?

Yeah he already said the day before the war started that Ukraine has no right to exist as a sovereign state, I don't think they really give a shit about any new threats he makes because it's already clear he wants to wipe them off the map

He really wants to destroy Russia.

Give up your state or we'll make you give up your state

ah, yes. only in Putins mind is it where sending in troops to a nation and threatening to end it, is not a declaration of wa, but stopping sending some money is

I'll stop this genocide, even if it means that I kill everyone- Sane dear leader

You will sign the peace treaty and do it peacefully...or we kill you!

"You'll leave me no choice but to kill you if you don't let me kill you!"

This entire war has been littered by inane statements like this from putin. I don't know whether it's a cultural thing or a language barrier thing but he seems to love making threats that imply that if somebody doesn't let him do what he wants he'll have no choice but to do what he wants.

Russia really refuses to learn from it's own history.

i would say, from what i know, sure it's slightly cultural. language barrier would be more at fault.

but not really. ultimately it's just him being a giant piece of shit.

If this goes on too long, Putin may get a kind reminder that Russia is only a little over 100 years from their last revolution.

Putin is just the biggest piece of shit
